The Ewee-Pt is a Bare-Bones Alternative Personal Transportation Vehicle
Michael Hines — August 1, 2010 — Autos
Ewee is hoping that you'll ditch your fat, old Segway for something slimmer and sexier in the form of the Ewee-Pt. I always thought the Segway could stand to lose a few.
The Ewee-Pt is controlled by leaning forward to accelerate and by leaning backwards to decelerate. A joystick controls the steering letting you seamlessly weave your way around chubbier and less nimble Segways. Check out the video for the Ewee-Pt above and click on the links if you think this stripped-down Segway is right for you.
