The centipede to VW's bug.

A multi-purpose electric vehicle developped by Japan Science and Technology Corp. and Keio University speeds along a street during a demonstration in downtown Tokyo on Saturday September 28, 2002. Developped at a cost of 300 million yen (2.4 million dollars), the eight-wheel-drive vehicle, called KAZ, is capable of reaching a top speed of 311 kmh (192 mph), its developper Prof. Hiroshi Shimizu of Keio University says. The 6.7-meter (14.7 feet)-long KAZ uses 84 lithium-ion batteries, which once charged enables the car to run for about 300 kilometers (186 miles). (AP Photo/Naokazu Oinuma)
