C+WalkT from Toyota features obstacle detection

C+WalkT features obstacle detection and visual alerts

Perhaps you have a trusty steed, and you just need something a bit smaller for maneuvering campus, a business park, or an airport. That’s where the C+WalkT electric scooter from Toyota comes in.  

One of the design aspects of this three-wheeled scooter is to quote “ease the burden of walking on elderly users engaged in security work.”

Because of this, you can expect speed to be a bit more regulated, with a top speed of 6.2 miles per hour.    

C+WalkT can support riders up to 220 pounds

For safety, the C+WalkT electric scooter features obstacle detection with visual alerts, and a sound alarm.

Also, it decelerates to around 1.2 miles per hour to help prevent a collision.  

C+WalkT can support riders up to 220 pounds, but there is no word on the production outside of Japan.
