We have just discovered “Honda Rickshaw” designed by designer Enoch Morishima. It is a modern high-tech rickshaw that redefines the primitive rickshaws by adding robotic features. What a cool concept it is! Morishima believe that this Honda Rickshaw will dominate the mode of transport in future. It’s too early to assume whether this will be used by people in large numbers.

However, this will definitely reduce congestion on the road and to maintain cleanliness. As of now, the Honda Rickshaw is still a concept. However, the designer sees this as a cheap and efficient public transport particularly for downtown areas in Malaysia. The Honda Rickshaw has almost all the basic features that an ordinary rickshaw has. However, the distinctive feature of this rickshaw is the robot, which is capable of interacting with the passengers.

The pod is pulled by the robot. It’s quite cool that the pod can be detached from the rickshaw and attached it to another vehicle. This is indeed an interesting design. People should invent more such things for better transport. There is no further information given for its price tag just yet.
