Each car maker in the worldwide has its own style to create a new car version. Alright, it seems that Asian manufacturer’s area just so much better than the rest of the world at coming up with very weird transportation ideas. The Japanese always seem to be the ones wowing motor show crowds with their contraptions. On the other hand, the Koreans aren't far behind on the innovation front, or so it would seem. Take this concept from Hyundai, called E4U, which was showed at the 2013 Seoul Motor Show.
Well, it is true that it does look like a giant egg, which has been carefully carved out, painted and fitted with headlights. It isn't particularly sexy, and the fact that you wear the windshield on your head doesn't help either. You drive it much in the same way you do aSegway, by leaning your body forward/back and left/right.
What sets it apart from the Segway is the fact that it looks considerably more stable, and with all that extra metal all around the driver/rider, it is probably a great deal safer – the retractable rear legs do add a bit of stability.
In addition, this E4U's 500W electric motor can take it up to a top speed of 30 km/h (19 mph) as told by the Korean Company.
