A new folding electric vehicle designed by Hiriko Mobility is set to go on sale next year. The Hiriko has a top speed of 50kph and a maximum range of 120 kilometers. To make parking easier, the car has independently controlled wheels that can turn 60 degrees in either direction. It can also fold up to reduce its 2.5 meter length to 1.5 meters.
