The Segway scooter was a cool idea, but it’s big downside was that people had to actually stand up on it—something fewer Americans are willing and/or able to do nowadays. This prototype of a new Segway vehicle, then, is much more promising. It’s the P.U.M.A. (Personal Urban Mobility & Accessibility) prototype, and it’s designed to provide efficient urban transport for people who don’t want their utter laziness compromised. (General Motors is also involved in the P.U.M.A., but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s doomed.) If Segway can convince people that these things are actually safe to drive, the company could reclaim its once-shining reputation as an innovator in transportation.
