The
Segway was supposed to revolutionize how we all get around. Some thought it would become the urban transporter of choice. But the company's recent press highlights just how much that hasn't happened.
Turns out, Segway has sold only
23,500 units since it was introduced about
five years ago (that rate is on par with Aston Martin).
Why hasn't it taken off? Well, where do you park it? Where can you ride it without angering pedestrians? And given those fundamental problems, are you still willing to pay $5,000 for one?
