Segways are the ultimate in alternative transportation. These remarkable two-wheeled vehicles run on a long-lasting electric battery that recharges quickly, generally less than six hours for a full charge, and can power the Segway for 8 to 12 miles per charge, perfect for a daily urban work commute. Dynamic stabilization, the technology behind the Segway, keeps the vehicle upright at all times despite having only two wheels. A sophisticated system of sensors and microprocessors keep it balances at all times and allows control of the Segway through slight motions of the driver's body. Since it's so compact and maneuverable, the Segway goes wherever you can go. For short work commutes in downtown areas, or trips to nearby shopping centers, the Segway is an excellent, efficient, and non-polluting alternative to driving by yourself.

The Segway Personal Transporter was launched in 2001 and is one of the most unique developments in personal, alternative transportation. Since the launch of the Personal Transporter, Segway has developed a wide range of products, from off-road vehicles to specialized produts for golfers and police officers.
