My next set of wheels

I'd pretty much given up on passenger road vehicles, even the Tesla, cool as it is, isn't that much different looking than any other sedan. But this cute little thing really looks like a lot of fun and makes a Smart Car seem big by comparison. Introducing the I-Road.

Toyota had one at the Auto Show last year. Very interesting concept for urban markets - maybe they can succeed where Sparrow and others have failed.

Wouldn't want to be in the back seat though - just a little too confined for me.

The Sparrow looks a little too cartoony for me. I'd be embarrassed to drive one around. Looks great for kids, though. Reminds me of Clifford, the big red dog. The I-Road on the other hand looks like an aircraft fuselage ready for liftoff. How much extra I wonder for the optional wings and rotor blades?
