Toyota will display the open-top Camatte57s electric concept car in the ‘Kids Life Zone’ at the International Tokyo Toy Show 2013, which runs from June 13 – 16 at Tokyo Big Sight in Koto Ward.
Toyota says the Camatte57s is about sharing ideas to construct the ideal car, inspired by families working on a project together.
The Camatte57s builds on Toyota’s original Camatte concept, shown last year, with a greater range of customization opportunities that are even easier to apply.
As the name suggests, the Camatte57s’ body is made up of 57 small, lightweight detachable panels, which are easy to fit to the spaceframe and they can also be customized to have different colors or shapes.
The open top roadster body style adds to the fun factor and allows everyone on board to enjoy the colorful exterior they have created.
The pedals and seats can be adjusted so that even children can drive. The position of the right-hand rear seat will let adults help with steering and braking, so the youngsters can make an early start on developing their driving skills in appropriate, safe places, off the public highway.
Powered by an electric motor, the car measures 3,00mm long by 1,440mm wide and 1,000mm high, and seats three.[wzslider height=”400″ lightbox=”true”]
