Toyota i-Real personal mobility car to patrol Japans airports

toyota_ireal.jpg Starting next week Japan's Chubu international airport will have officers patrolling in a shiny new Toyota i-Real personal mobility car. Made from lightweight carbon fiber reinforced plastic it has controls on the arm rests in lieu of a steering wheel. The three wheeled vehicle shortens its wheelbase in low speed mode to maneuver among pedestrians and in high speed mode the wheelbase lengthens to provide a lower centre of gravity and offer a top speed of 18.6 mph. With the introduction of the i-Real airport authorities can provide better service and also give a futuristic look to the airport.
