Toyota brought out the Toyota FT-EV II earlier this week. Fans of the brand will get to see the electric concept all throughout the Tokyo Motor Show.
With a "retro-futuristic" interior, the car is designed with two levers in place of a steering wheel and pedals. It has an active auto-pilot that navigates the vehicle while simultaneously downloading audio and video suiting the owner's tastes.
The concept has a 90 kilometer range, and a top speed of 100 km/h. It runs entirely on lithium-ion batteries.
Changes between this and the first FT-EV include a shorter nose, flatter windshield, and new front bumper.
Comments
But really how close to a production vehicle is this. However, if its priced reasonably, it will be like that movie field of dreams . If I build it they will come.
Apparently, It just doesn't matter if these things are close to production or environmentally and economically feasible. It is time to renew the quests for the fountain of youth and alchemy.
