Toyota completed their Open Road Project last summer. 10 i-Roads shared for daily driving by 100 participants from ordinary members of the public to experts and trendsetters. Their feedback is aimed at developing the final product. I anticipate the next Gen Production Prototype coming sometime in 2016. The good thing about Toyota is that once it's production ready............they can move it into their production cycle quickly.SO WHEN IN THE USA?????
The i-Road demographic in the USA is geared specifically to the big city high traffic congested markets. The auto scooter EV would be blast to drive, FUNctional commuter in my personal downtown/city living environment.Great video, thanks for posting. Sure does look like a fun vehicle. That video shows exactly why the i-Road can (will?) succeed in Europe, and conversely why it will be challenging to succeed in the U.S. Its very slim cross section, perfect for European roads, is the very antithesis of the typical widebody American vehicle.
Both the i-Road and Elio have their work cut out for them.
Toyota's marketing strategy for the i-Road:Agreed, except I don't think the i-Road is being marketed to the masses as a motorcycle.
