The Toyota i-Road Is Unlike Anything You've Ever Driven

If this is Toyota's vision for the future, lets ride...

 

 

  Odds are, you've got to experience an all-new sensation. From a stomach dropping roller coaster to driving your first car, we've all experienced "butterflies". Toyota is giving butterflies to those awaiting news whether their three-wheeled, I-Road prototype, will hit the production line. 
The all-electric i-Road is one of Toyota's transportation answers for cities of tomorrow, which are projected to experience huge population growth in the coming decades.

  When you first start the i-Road, you first have to wait a few seconds as the gyroscope and accelerometers adjust themselves. This makes the vehicle wiggle. In motion, the i-Road uses the gyroscope and sensors to stay balanced while employing two features that create a truly distinct driving sensation: an active leaning system, and a caster-like rear-wheel hub that operates independently of the vehicle. Compare it slalom skiing; rhythmic side-side motion. Driving the i-Road is definitely going to be different than driving a car, with the gyroscope keeping the center of the vehicle balanced and the rear hub moving separately, turning in the i-Road is more like pivoting on a central axis. Even though the i-Road is built to go only 35 mph, that's still enough speed to make you feel like you're going to tip over heading into a corner. You won't. The engineers have worked hard to make sure that doesn't happen. The i-Road's lithium-ion battery charges using a 110-volt charging port located in a compartment just below the single-wiper windshield. A full charge takes three hours, and it has a range of about 30 miles. That's more than enough for most urban transport.

  If nothing else, the i-Road is an interesting engineering exercise, but it also makes a lot of sense as another option for people living in urban areas. Considering the positive feedback Toyota has received so far from its testing program, it sounds like there's a good chance the company will make some sort of production vehicle.
