WALKCAR can now be driven on public roads in Japan
Everyday life WITH WALKCAR
The world's smallest portable mobility vehicle was born from the idea of ``I wish I could carry my car around.'' Living unrestricted by distance from stations or transportation infrastructure will enrich people's lives and change lifestyles and the way cities exist. WALKCAR, born in Japan, is a mobility product that changes the concept of movement.
Places far from the station
I can go, I can live.
WALKCAR brings you closer to your favorite shops and parks. Because you can easily access places that are a little far away on foot, you have more options for living, such as living in a spacious house further away from the station or having more stations nearby. From now on, it may be possible to live a convenient and enjoyable life regardless of the distance from the station.

How to use WALKCAR
Operated by moving the center of gravity and moving your feet
Step on "both feet" toes
Speed up
Accelerate by pressing the toes of both feet. If you continue accelerating, your speed will continue to increase until you reach the speed limit.
*Speed is determined not by the "strength" of the pedal stroke, but by the "elapsed time" of the pedal stroke.
Slow down（until it stops）
"one of"
Raise your toes slightly
If you raise one toe of either your "right foot" or "left foot" (stop pressing down), you will slow down.
If you continue to decelerate, your speed will continue to decrease until you stop.
* Speed is determined not by the "strength" of the pedal stroke, but by the "elapsed time" of the pedal stroke.
Automatically stops when you get off
bend your knees slightly
tilt the center of gravity
Terning
Turn by shifting your weight from side to side. Twisting your upper body in the direction you want to bend and putting your weight on one foot will cause you to bend in that direction. Keep your balance as the WALKCAR turns.
Differences between WALKCAR 2 / 2 Pro
Turns easily and small
Easy to use both indoors and outdoors.
Compared to the old WALKCAR, the curves are lighter and smaller. It's now easier than ever to use it when you want to drive slowly indoors or on narrow roads.

Four-wheel independent suspension
Absorbs vibrations “up and down” and “back and forth”
In order to absorb road vibrations, the WALKCAR 2/ 2 Pro has vertical suspension on the front and rear wheels, as well as front and rear suspension on the front wheels. It cushions the impact of bumps and bumps and achieves high drivability even with small tire diameters.
Furthermore, WALKCAR 2 Pro is set to be more stable than WALKCAR 2 when dealing with distortions in the road surface and when driving at high speeds.
Technology
Climb the slope powerfully
World's smallest in-wheel motor*
An in-wheel motor newly developed exclusively for WALKCAR is installed inside the front drive tire . In- wheel motors use welded connections to reduce unnecessary screw space and maximize coil space. Despite its ultra-compact size , it has the torque performance of a bicycle at 15 km/h and powerful enough to climb up a 12-degree slope .
* For in-wheel motors in single-person mobility equipment. According to our research as of March 2024.
Balancing weight reduction and power.
Newly adopted ultra-super duralumin heat sink heat dissipation structure
WALKCAR 2 / 2 Pro newly adopts a heat sink mechanism in the in-wheel motor connection part. Improved heat dissipation performance while driving, enabling even more powerful driving in situations where power is required, such as uphill.
In order to achieve ``lightness and strength,'' we use cutting materials made from ultra-super duralumin, which is also used in aircraft wings.
Keep your hands free at all times
Sensing that enables hands-free operation
By using four pressure-sensitive sensors built into the boarding surface, you can accelerate, decelerate, and curve using simple foot operations centered on shifting the center of gravity.
Ultra-light carbon body (CFRTP) with a body weight of 2.9 kg
Carbon material is used for the main body frame to create an ultra-light and strong body. It is 10 times stronger and 1/4 lighter than steel, and is supported by a carbon frame with a thickness of just 3.3 mm.
In addition, the high elasticity of the body allows the tires to firmly grip the road surface, allowing for a supple ride.
