Hello, this is RPV. Last month, I went to the Tokyo Motor Show.
We went there to check the relationship with our business partners and also the future trends in the automotive industry.
It sounds great to say, but in fact, I personally wanted to go there so badly, so I did.
I arrived at Tokyo Big Sight at 10:00 a.m., the time of the event, but the entrance for my admission ticket holder was so crowded that I had to wait 40 minutes.
The same-day ticket sales were still better, so it might have been better to buy tickets on the day of the show.
The smoothest and by far the fastest way to enter is with a T-card with credit function.
I didn't know that~! I'll try this next time.;
The theme of this year's motor show seemed to be EVs and driver assistance, but I'm sure you already know that, so I'll introduce it from a different perspective. I am not so interested in them myself (^^;);
This is Toyota's booth. Latvala's WR car was on display.
Next up is the driving Subaru, the WRX S208.
BRZ~!
It is a concept car. It is a sedan, but it has a sophisticated design.
Next up is Mazda. This is also a concept car! Mazda's design is even more innovative~(^-^;);
Mazda's SkyActive engine was also on display with detailed information.
Speaking of Mr. Honda, it is still the Super Cub (^-^;);
Just recently, there was also a commemorative event at Kumamoto Works! I am more familiar with this one, which has the scent of Showa era (^-^;);
The new model also looks easy to ride.
It's a new 1000cc naked. It looks fun and full of the latest technology.
This one is said to be a bike that does not fall over, and we would love to see it put to practical use.
This one looks like a combination of a house and a car, quite a unique house? A car? (^^)
Kawasaki displayed a Z900RS, which is reminiscent of the old Z1. I think it is intriguing to the generation born in the Showa era.
The original is good, but the custom-made one is also quite good. Personally, I can't get enough of the silhouette of the 4-pipe muffler when viewed from the back at an angle.
Ohhhh I want this one!
The usuals will also be there~!
Yamaha exhibited a fuel cell motorcycle. The drive system is a rear in-wheel motor.
The swing arm is supposed to have a mechanism in which the root of the swing arm is movable, so that even if the body banked, the tire bank would be suppressed to secure grip, and the bank angle of the swing arm would not match with the body bank angle. It is an amazing feat of ingenuity and creativity that is only possible with electric bikes!
Lunch is available at the venue, but there is a waiting list, so I went to the Ariake Central Tower just outside the venue. When I left the venue, I was given a piece of paper to wrap around my wrist to allow me to re-enter the venue. If you don't have it, you will have to pay the re-entry fee again. Without it, you will have to pay the admission fee again.
This is like a commercial building, but it contains a Yoshinoya and other restaurants and is relatively empty.
I chose the grilled horse mackerel set meal.
This is what the inside of the restaurant looks like. You can be seated immediately without waiting in line outside the restaurant.
Here is the first eye candy! This is Suzuki's booth. It is a familiar mark.
This is IHI's turbocharger. The structure of recent turbochargers is quite complicated and elaborate!
Tire manufacturers are promoting the development of airless tires.
Mr. Dunlop.
Mr. Bridgestone.
Akebono Brake exhibited a fluidized brake system, a braking system that does not use friction materials. The absence of brake dust is a good thing, and this system is expected to be put to practical use in the near future.
Asahi Glass introduced a technology that projects information directly onto the windshield. I hope this will be realized soon, too!
Finally, here is the second piece of eye candy. I happened to be standing next to this booth when he came out of the waiting room in the back. As soon as he did so, 20 to 30 people with cameras gathered around him within a few seconds and surrounded him.;
The next day, I took the first train to Ikebukuro to meet a friend who lives in Chichibu, and went to the aquarium on the way. I heard that most of the fish here died a few days later, which is a shame (-_-).
It is said that they are penguins flying in the sky in the city. If you ask me, it looks something like that (^-^;);
We arrived in Chichibu. I ordered a cup of coffee at an affaires in a tangible cultural property recommended by a friend.
It is said to be a tobacco shop. It has a Showa-era appearance!
The next day, I went to Tsukiji, which is the talk of the town right now. It had already become a tourist attraction (+_+).
Since the place was crowded with tourists, I decided to have an early lunch and went to a seafood bowl restaurant in a back alley. I ordered a bowl of rice topped with only my favorite ingredients. There was a bowl of rice topped with only my favorite ingredients on the menu, so I ordered it without hesitation. It was delicious!;
My first excursion in a long time over the consecutive holidays has come to an end (-_-). When I see the Yamanami Mountains of Aso, I feel that I have returned home.
It is getting colder day by day and the end of the year is approaching, so please take care of yourselves. See you soon~(^^)/
