    .... no it's not walking as that does not involve Lithium-ion batteries!

    This instead was brought to my attention and made me smile almost as much as a Segway. Never mind about velomobiles this is how the city of the future will be cluttered.
    i-Road fully enclosed, battery powered, tilting thing

    Of course Toyota have past form on this I think....

    Double the top speed, double the range, and sell it cheaper than a small hatchback. Then, they can effect a major change.
    As it is, it's too slow and too range limited to convert many commuters.

    That said, I have believed for a long time that a cross between a motorcycle streamliner and a velomobile powered by a good electric powerplant/batteries is a serious option... getting warmer (certainly warmer than a conventional hatchback design wasting battery power!)
