Toyota i-swing Wearable Car

at 11:01 am. Filed under Insane Equipment

 

Move over Segway, here comes the i-swing…

“Sadly, this is a concept car only — meaning you can’t go out and buy one at your local Toyota dealer. Designed by Hideo Miwa from yes, Toyota, it’s named the i-swing and looks like a chair on wheels, or a jetpac. The designer believes that cars will evolve into more of a wearable design.

As you can see, it can travel on three or two wheels, and its body is made of polyurethane and covered in fabric to soften the impact if it bumps into people. Bumper cars, cool!”

    Hmm….. with the name, woulda expected it to be more of an Apple product than Toyota.

    Great, as if people aren’t lazy enough as it is…

    Before I get flamed, yes I know that this would be great for those who are wheelchair bound. That’s not the audience that I’m preaching about.

    The Segway (sp) just got one-upped before it got mainstream.
    Just keep them off the freeway!
