For once a car actually looks like its name suggests. The Smart Insect, which Toyota revealed at the CEATEC show in Japan, is a one-seater concept with an extremely buggy appearance. INSECT actually stands for "information network social electric city transporter" and has highly advanced technological features that have yet to appear in production cars. For one, the car's Smart Center uses facial recognition when the driver steps up to the car to unlock doors and greet with a message. Like we noted before, the car's dash has been replaced by one giant tablet. Would you drive this?
