I've just watched this being demoed on Top Gear

I wonder if Buy n Large will sell them.

Totally impractical concept car/transporter only - the design has so many drawbacks it would never sell outside Japan - who would sacrifice all their man points to be seen in one of these things. Better to be seen on a segway, and how popular are they.

Was the Segway just not Japanese enough?

I think someone's seen the Wall-E movie. This is a total waste of time, money and resources. Take death off the roads and bring it to the pavements!
Remember, nobody ever lends money to a man with a sense of humour!

"The robotics technology in the car will also work to remind you if you’re running late to class, or give you fashion advice." I have this feature already in my Fiat Coupe. Its called 'Wife'. (Other than that this 'car' looks like an invalid carriage, AKA 'spaz carriot'. )

They call this a "car"? Looks more like a cool wheelchair or even a senior citizen assisted device. If they place a rack on the back, the owner can pack groceries with them. It would be great on the golf course; you can have your own cart. If it is a car, how well will it do on the freeways of the US. Try it on the autobahns of Germany. It might be safer to keep it in the nursing homes. Unlike the Segway, you get to sit down. Less strain on the legs.
