The futuristic Toyota PM concept from 2003 is a personal
transport concept.
The PM's cockpit opens by touching one of the unusual
stalk mounted headlights, this then glows green to announce
the impending opening of the glass canopy.
The Toyota PM is highly maneuverable thanks to its castor
like wheels capable of rotating through 180 degrees. The
front wheels are also notable because of their hub-less
design.
Another interesting feature Toyota has built into the
PM is its adjustable ride height and attitude. As the
PM's speed increases it lowers to the ground to increase
stability and improve aerodynamics.
Inside the PM information regarding vehicle performance
and the location of other PM's is relayed to the single
occupant by a floating virtual display.
Power for the concept comes from an electric motor.
