GM is happy to present Personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility (Project P.U.M.A.) like an effort to attract digitally connected customers. It is a low-cost protoype which enables design creativity, fashion, fun and social networking.’ This mobility platform can travel up to 56 kph with a range up to 56 km between recharges.
As per Larry Burns, GM vice president of research and development, and strategic planning :
“Project P.U.M.A. represents a unique solution to moving about and interacting in cities, where more than half of the world’s people live. Imagine small, nimble electric vehicles that know where other moving objects are and avoid running into them. Now, connect those vehicles in an Internet-like web and you can greatly enhance the ability of people to move through cities, find places to park and connect to their social and business networks.”
Here are some pics of the new vehicle:
