Might be cool for beer runs.

I'd pimp one and race it. That would get the chicks. I'd have to strap a boombox on the roof to make roaring noises. Where do you put the gun rack? I wonder how it goes in the snow? Actually if I could get one of these in the airport when I'm changing planes, that would be pretty cool...

I don't see this as stupid at all in some applications, also if you dig a bit more progressive car companies have a variation of this in the works.

Toyota PM And the i-Real

Peugeot Ozone City-Cell

BMW FutureOne

Honda PUYO

Suzuki PIXY

In my opinion it is abough paradigm shifting being a good thing, and I like this trend. GM actually looks like it has something closer to market and combining brands with Segway makes it more marketable.

There was a time when everyone laughed at Segway and the Smart car too.

It would actually be pretty cool for cruising around in town. A penny a mile would be cheaper than walking.

If it doesn't do at least 70mph and get >50mpg (or 100 miles on a single charge) fuck it. Keep the golf carts on the golf course.

Great, just what NYC needs, a 'car' that can be carjacked with you still in it.

Everyone still laughs at the Segway. Smart car has had a bit more success but I think the popularity of the Mini Cooper kinda helped it along. Baby steps. Slowly step back down from full sized pickups and SUVs to these types of cars.

In the future, people will be beautiful, and cars will be ugly.

In the fifties, cars were beautiful and the people were ugly.

Progress...sigh....
