How Toyota is Secretly Building our Future Cities

Historically, great cities are often founded by great leaders - Alexandria by Alexander the Great, Baghdad by Al-Mansur, or St Petersberg by Peter the Great. But in the 21st century, it may be corporations, rather than individual leaders, who found the cities of the future. Leading the charge is Japanese auto-giant Toyota.
For the past several years, the company has been laying out designs for an entire small city near the base of Mount Fuji in Japan. The immediate purpose of this hyper-futuristic metropolis will be to test mobility systems - but it goes far beyond just that. Toyota says it will also be a “living laboratory,” with roads and housing for 2 thousand local residents. It will be named…Woven City.
In this episode of Looking 4, we’ll step onto the front lines of this extraordinary ongoing project.

Transportation is a liability, not an asset for a city. In an ideal city, the less the city requires transport, the better. The ideal city should be designed around pedestrian, bicycle and Mass Transport.. not roads and individual cars.

There’s already a new, purpose built walkable community Tempe Arizona. It’s called Culdesac. It’s built at a light rail station. Mixed use, lots of paths, plants. Already lived in .

@chinito77 4 месяца назад

The problem with Woven is that it’s a city for employees by employees. If one accepts it as just a giant employee retreat/guest office then it’s ok. I trust Toyota quality and their vision. Look at all the EV fanboys shaming Toyota and now Tesla is no longer a respectable company. Not to mention EV sales tanking. Hydrogen may not be the best tech for the future but anything is better than oil, gas, and coal.

@nico77212 4 месяца назад

If you look at the model, it's only 1/5 of the area that's being developed. I'm guessing that if and when they finally figure everything out, they can easily figure out everything else and thats probably where regular residence can go.

Hi... Indonesia now build their new capital city called Nusantara. It will be full scale city powered with clean energy, where only EV allowed to drive. You should check it out... The first phase will be finished this year.

I see a giant privacy problem if your company controls all doe you have freedom? If your dressed different or party to hard you will be seen as unsuitable not only use your job but your families residents. The company will control what you can eat.

Nice thing about this plan... you have a choice and if you don't like the idea or think it's dystopian, then they probably wouldn't want you to live there anyway.

@FidesAla 4 месяца назад

I think that the people saying it’s dystopian are just being racist. If some white people in Europe did this, they would think it’s the best thing ever, especially if it were in Scandinavia.

@strubbleler 4 месяца назад

i wonder, why they do it at the base or Mt. Fuji ! for years now the rural towns have been slowly vanishing, in japan in general, i wonder if, toyota's plan with this is to bring life back to these rural areas, by just building a city smack-dab in the middle! this way parents can stay in the towns, while the kids go to study / work in this futurist city!

Money wins again. RIP. However, hopefully, a lot of the things they came up with are not buried in the corporate vaults. These concepts could prove very useful but perhaps not on earth.

@mikebikekite1 4 месяца назад

I like the idea though I'm not sure about the naming though. It's more of a large village than a city. Naming it after a Chinese organised crime gang (Triad) seems a little odd to. Still, it looks a nice place to live. Here in London, our politicians criminalise riding PEVs (electric scooters and unicycles) on the streets which shows how forward thinking we are here :(

@francoisperrot4890 4 месяца назад

Welcome to japanese North Korean dystopic village ! A "city" with 360 inhabitants, how ridiculous is it. It's hardly the size of a new quarter in a town. And as you said, is it really smart to use "smart cars" whereas you can easily walk through the village ! And how useful the automatic cars will be if they are not allowed to get around the village to the other quarters of the city around ?

Of course not. It’s only a test bed for people who work for the company. However, in a few decades, everyone else will reap the rewards created from this project.

Aiming for Utopia never seems to get old. Toyota's money would be better spent studying the economic forces that have made existing cities look the way they do. Building a Utopian version without regard to the underlying economics risks digging a very deep money pit.

@RickyT15 4 месяца назад

Where have they lied? Far as I am aware they have always agreed that electric is the future but have disagreed on how the electric design. Their main issue being Li-On batteries are not the correct approach in the long term and they are correct. This is way the main focus of R&D for every vehicle producer is alternatives to Li-On and hoping for a new battery technology as none of them want to use Lithium long term. Those other companies just put the money down to capitalise on it short term and cause governments are forcing their hands to change earlier and the only current choice for them is Lithium even if they don't want it.

@chinito77 4 месяца назад

In case you haven’t seen the news recently, EV adoption rates have tanked. Toyota made so much money last quarter by betting on Hybrids. I would love EV tech to improve but we aren’t there yet. If junk from BYD, there is no future for EV.

@pdahandyman 4 месяца назад

So... who controls all this technology? Toyota? The Woven team who are residents and employees of Toyota? Does it ever pass on to the control of the people? If not, why not? There are far too many ethical questions about how this project will work and who is expected to ultimately benefit from it? No Capitalist group does anything because it's nice, but because it makes them money. Lots and lots of money or they don't bother.

So if a group of people who you have decided to demonize does something good, it just makes them worse, because you have already decided to demonize them, so if they do it, it must be evil.
