GM and Segway’s P.U.M.A. makes its stage debut
April 8th, 2009
At the latest Press conference for P.U.M.A. Larry Burns and Jim Norrod from GM and Segway, respectively, talked up what they each brought to the table, and described the vehicle’s inception as a partnership.
Segway are responsible for the self tilting two wheel mechanism idea, while GMs part has yet to be seen in full potential, currently what we can see is the chassis, GM plan of having all sorts of “fashionable and futuristic” shells.
But the big issue comes from the general idea, this “car” is supposed to run in pre-existing bike lanes. Looks like most of the world misses out here!
