Toyota i-Unit Demonstration

At 396.8-pounds, the battery powered (Lithium-ion) Toyota i-Unit features "drive-by-wire technology and intuitive handling", allowing the "driver to maneuver quick turns and drive at high speeds." Videos after the jump.

The concept operates in an upright and horizontal mode. Its small size enables the driver to move among people in an upright position in low speed mode. The i-unit reclines in high-speed mode and its low center of gravity ensures stable handling
