The trike on the right is the Toto Neo.
It recently toured more than 1000 km across Japan on its retro white-walled tyres, running on the methane produced from fermented sewage - collected from both animal and human sources.
Yes, that would be gas from rotting shit, boet.
And nope, that toilet-seat and giant loo-roll is just to 'suptely' hint at the origin of the contents in the two tanks on the rear.
Toto does not plan to sell the Neo, like the electric trike built by Messrs Ayrton and Perry built in 1881 (see previous blog) the Neo is just to advertise the possibilities of poo.
The Neo weighs 380 kg and has a range of 300 km at speeds of up to 70 kph.
Reuters quoted the riders who took part in the 1000-km relay across Japan as saying the seat "is actually quite comfortable to sit on."
