To arouse visitors’ interest in the upcoming Japan Mobility Show – an exhibition opening in Tokyo on October 26 – Toyota has published an extremely interesting teaser. The photo shows the latest Pradik with Neo Steer technology, which allows you to steer the car without using pedals.

At the Japan Mobility Show, Toyota is not only presenting several electric van concepts, but also the new Land Cruiser Prado (the one with the 250) without the usual pedals. With its help, the Japanese want to introduce the public to the Neo Steer technology, which simplifies driving for people with disabilities.

The main feature of the machine with Neo Steer are the two levers on the right handlebar grip. The driver is asked to control the supply of the flammable mixture (i.e. to accelerate) with the thumb and to brake with the index finger. The rectangular steering wheel itself, which hardly resembles traditional steering wheels, also attracts attention. This shape was not chosen by chance: it is claimed that it improves visibility.

We would like to add that the future prospects of the Neo Steer technology are still unclear. Toyota representatives have not said when, if ever, the system will appear on production vehicles.
