Segway x2 — 'Tuned for cross-terrain'

Just out, the new off-road model features bigger tires, higher ground clearance, seriously aggressive fenders, a wider wheelbase and new LeanSteer technology, which lets you steer by leaning in the direction you want to go.

Even I could do that.

Nice Oakland Raiders black-and-chrome color scheme — I wonder if Al Davis has seen it yet?

If a picture is worth a 1,000 words, a video (top) is that much more valuable.

$5,995 at Segway dealers everywhere.

I wonder if this puppy will make it onto the Segway polo fields in California anytime soon.

Woz?

Bueller?

Anyone?

Comments

A few years ago, some students at Olin College of Engineering in Boston made presentations to Dean Kamen, who was looking for ideas about uses for the Segway. One of their suggestions: a Segway for golfers. Kind of funny that this thing is being marketed as a golf cart, of sorts.

Anyway, they had an off road model before. I can't believe it sold well enough to warrent another version!
