Toyota Idea Olympics

Hampster powered cars?!

[Cotty]

----------------------------
Winners this year included a car that looks like a ladybird that is powered by hamsters and a wheelchair that can go up and down stairs. Other winners at the 26th Annual Toyota Idea Olympics held in Toyota City, Japan included a giant football with satellite navigation and an egg-shaped, people carrying robot that finds its own way home.

Could be handy if you dont need to operate the vehicle, you could have a few drinks and let it drive you home.

So remember, if you get held up by a Toyota its because "the car in front" has a hamster under the bonnet!!

Merely confirms what we suspected all along..

Often, there's a hamster in the driving seat too
