We have been waiting for the i-Road urban electric vehicle to hit the streets for some time now, as Toyota has been teasing us with it at seemingly every auto show stop across the globe.

This nimble electric ride is quite the unique vehicle, and with three wheels and a look seemingly more like a motorcycle than car it has made some serious waves.

The futuristic nature of the i-Road is very interesting to us here in Chicago, Illinois, because this ride could alter the way we navigate the maze that is our urban environment.

With efficiency and a compact frame the i-Road was recently let loose on Toyota City, Japan for official testing, and a video was made showing off the little ride in action, take a look below:

The i-Road is unlike anything we have here in the current inventory of new Toyota models, and we are intrigued to see what our brand does with it after these test runs.  Make sure you keep in the loop here in our blog as more information comes to fruition.
