Date: August 17, 2008 | Written by: admin | One Comment
We’re not big on cars but when they cater to dogs we are all ears. Put a dog in a car and you’ve got a my attention and when he sticks his little head out of a hole in the front of the car you’re all like “Ahhhh! So CUTE!” here is the deal Honda Japan has designed dog friendly car, termed as the WOW concept.
WOW stands for Wonderful open hearted wagon. The car will be unveiled later at the Tokyo Motor show. A special crate for dogs in the glove apartment allows owners to interact with their pets while driving. A bigger crate pops up from the floor in the back seat area and can be folded back into the floor when it’s not needed. For even bigger dogs, just buckle them up with a special seat belt to the floor.
The big danger for pets riding along in cars is that they get thrown out during a crash. About a fifth of Japanese households have a dog, and demand is growing for cars that cater to man’s best friend, according to Honda. The W.O.W comes with removable, washable, rollout flooring and has wide sliding doors to keep dogs happy.
No word on a US version.
Very interesting concept.
I wish there was news on a US version!
