Suzuki takes a crack at urban mobility with the Q-Concept
Along with the new Regina Concept, Suzuki will be showing the new Q-concept at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show later this year. The Q-Concept is ‘positioned between a conventional motorcycle and car’ – in other words its an urban mobility vehicle project.
“The Q-concept is more practical than a car as it’s more manoeuvrable and takes up much less parking space,” Suzuki said in a statement. “At the same time, a cabin makes it a more attractive, more comfortable option than a motorcycle. It’s outstandingly handy for shopping, commuting, going to the doctor, transporting children, and all the other short journeys in everyday life.”
The Q-Concept is powered by an electric motor that provides a driving range of up to 31 miles and a top speed of 37 mph.
The Suzuki Q-Concept comes in two configurations including a single seat at the front and two rear seats – or a single seat at the front and room for storage in the back.
