The [Honda](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fastport-equad) Rogue from designer Joe DeGorsky could easily be confused for a next-gen wheelchair, but this [two-wheeled pod](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strutt-ev1) is actually meant to be used like a [Segway](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uni-one).

The Segway is a great vehicle, but it doesn't protect you from the elements--or from anything else, for that matter. The Honda Rogue by Joe DeGorsky has numerous safety features like turn signals and a windshield. If designs like the Honda Rogue come to fruition, we may one day see a future without cars. Honda Rogues for all!
