Geneva: Toyota's Three Wheeled i-Road Concept EV
We are not total strangers to futuristic vehicles that look like a hybrid between a car and a bike or a car that leans into a corner like a motorcycle. Toyota's latest concept - i-Road - is one such vehicle of the future which will be showcased at the Geneva Motor Show.
Toyota
i-Road,
a
Personal
Mobility
Vehicle
is
an
electric
vehicle
that
seats
just
two
occupants
and
runs
on
three
wheels.
Toyota
says,
the
i-Road
"represents
a
way
of
overcoming
various
obstacles,
such
as
congested
city
roads,
lack
of
parking,
and
other
commuting
issues,
in
the
path
of
the
development
of
low-carbon
and
sustainable
urban
areas."
Diemension
The i-Road measures 2,350mm long and 1,445mm high, with a wheelbase of 1,700mm. More importantly, since the two occupants sit behind each other, the vehicle manages to be just 850mm wide.
Maneuverability
One of the highlights of the i-Road is its ability to lean into a curve using Toyota's Automatic Active-lean system. The intelligent system automatically manages the vehicle's lean angle and stabilizes it.
Enclosed Cabin
The i-Road might be no larger than a motorcycle. However, unlike a bike the i-Road has an enclosed cabin that protects the occupants from the elements.
Clean & Efficient
i-Road is a pure electric vehicle, which means it has an emission figure of zero.
Battery
Power comes from a lithium ion battery that takes three hours to charge and provides a range of 50km.
