Toyota release 'Camatte' toy car concepts
To be displayed in two guises, the Camatte 'Sora' (the green & white car), and Camatte 'Daichi' (tan coloured car), the vehicle features a customisable body, with clamshell-style opening of the roof and doors, and easily removable body panels, available in a range of colours and designs.
A simple body structure and components were used to give parents and children the chance to become more familiar with the workings of motor vehicles.
The interior features seating for three in a triangular '1+2' configuration to create "an intimate family driving space, maximising parent-child communication." Pedals and seats are fully adjustable to allow children to operate controls (where legal), while an adult seated in the right rear seat can assist with steering and braking.
Toyota describes the Camatte as a concept only, with no plans to put it into production.
