GM Unveils EN-V Segway-Based Concepts for Mega City Dwellers



General Motors and its Chinese partner Shanghai Auto (SAIC) presented today a new trio of self-balancing two-wheeler concept vehicles that will be showcased in public for the first time at the SAIC-GM Pavilion at World Expo 2010 Shanghai that runs from May 1 through October 31.

Called the EN-V, which is short for Electric Networked-Vehicle, the two-seater concept is tailored to the crowded mega-cities of the future.
