Consider a world full of robots, where they are the primary mode of transportation too? The Chubu 01 is a product of that world, as the transport robot would have been in 1957. The robot from an alternate 1957 sounds cool, looks good, but considering where the driver’s seat is, it may not be a very, er, “politically correct” thing for a drive. Or maybe it’s “taking a ride” in an alternative sense as well.

This Japanese DIY kit is up for sale at “Harajuku’s TOKYO CULTUART” gallery for 28,000 Yen, with only 200 units set for production.
