When cars simply aren’t enough…

Toyota decides to take on Segway, with the Winglet. They describe it as a “mechanized scooter (or personal transporter, in future-speak) intended to help people move about in public areas.”

It doesn’t appear to be as rugged, nor even as fast as the Segway. However, that may or may not be a good thing. I don’t know what the demand for these transporters really are, but I guess it’s a move in the right direction (no pun intended). What may seem a bit far fetched at the moment (in terms of practical applications, especially in the US) might have more benefits a few years down the road. Hell, take velcro, for example.
