Nisan Pivo 2 Concept Car in front door is literally a front door

The entire front end of the car opens up via a large door to allow the driver and his two passengers access, and because it features a rotating cabin (the entire cabin can swivel 360 degrees) there is no need for a reverse gear.

Isn't the Nissan Pivo cute? I came across this demo video and thought I heard the model ask the robot where the parking lot is. We may not need the robot now

This is the front view or rather where the steering wheel is. The cabin can rotate on the wheels so there is no need to reverse. You can ease it into a parking lot sideways.

Beautiful and Cute Nisan Pivo 2 Concept Car for Girl

This car seems to be perfect for women. I only wonder about the safety aspect when you have buses and other larger and stronger vehicles on the road. Maybe we should have lanes for small cars, since the nano and reva will also be plying around soon.

Tokyo, Japan — One of the many concept cars being readied for the Tokyo Motor Show in Japan is this iPod-inspired vehicle. With a design that's best described as odd and/or bulbous, it features accelerator and brake pedals embossed withaudio player symbols: fast-forward and stop. According to Nissan, the Pivo 2 is an advanced electric concept car that builds on the popularity of the first Pivo, which was shown at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show. Power comes from environmentally friendly compact lithium-ion batteries. More of an entertaining way of transport than a traditional car, it even features a "highly innovative Robotic Agent". Drivers will never be lonely again, as the robotic companion can converse in both Japanese and English dialects, and was created to make journeys less stressful. The robotic agent is also instrumental in operating the cars functions, from heating and cooling to navigation. The entire front end of the car opens up via a large door to allow the driver and his two passengers access, and because it features a rotating cabin (the entire cabin can swivel 360 degrees) there is no need for a reverse gear. The vehicle is made even more nimble thanks to four wheels. Each of the four wheels are powered by advanced electric in-wheel '3D Motors', which can then swivel 90 degrees allowing the Pivo 2 to drive sideways as well as forward.
