Nissan unveiled its new Pivo 2 concept car last week in Japan. It has no axles; the four wheels operate independently. Both the wheels and the cab can rotate, eliminating the need for reverse gear. Sure makes parking a breeze! The car also features an onboard robot who can help with navigation and will check to see if you are too sleepy to drive. Push play or go to Live Leak.

"pivo" (as pronounced "peevo") is the russian word for "beer"
not only in Russian, but in most Slavic languages.
