The Honda Puyo concept car was presented at this years Tokyo motor show. Puyo is a japanese Onomatopoeia that is a meant to convey a warm,friendly impression,the sensation of touching the vehicle`s softbody.Sounds kinky but puyo`s ‘gel’ body is actually soft .Honda claims the soft body increases safety.During the dark puyo`s body can glow,emitting light.Therefore in the night it is very easy to notice when in the streets.
Puyo is a green vehicle,powered by a fuel cell.Its design is that of a cornerless box.The small tyres are at the extreme corners of the vehicle.It has been designed in away that it can turn in 360 degrees.The puyo has got what is called the scissor doors!
The interesting part of the puyo is that instead of the steering wheel its got a joystick.Describing the puyo,most probably the suitable words are Quirky and impractical,this is what is expected of concept cars.The inside is designed to have a silky feel,providing a refreshing and people friendly space.
