A test drive event for the electric vehicle "Green Slow Mobility" with a maximum speed of less than 20 km was held in Daisen, a national park in Tottori prefecture, and tourists enjoyed the historic scenery and nature.
"Green Slow Mobility" is an electric vehicle that can run on public roads at speeds of less than 20 km / h, and is becoming more popular in the country because it has less impact on the environment and can move even in narrow alleys.
The test drive event was held by local governments and tourist groups around Daisen to explore new tourism tools and possibilities for transportation for residents. Participants were a cart-type four-seater in the Daisenji district of Daisen Town. I took a ride on a 7-seater electric car.
The car slowly travels through the approach to Daisenji Temple, the inn town, and the autumn leaves, and the participants take about 20 minutes to go around the 3-kilometer course by waving from the open seats to the surroundings. I did.
Toshio Adachi, the representative director of the local tourism organization, Daisen Tourism Bureau, said, "This car can cover the movement in Daisen, which has many slopes, and can be put on narrow roads. I would like to consider introducing it in consultation with prefectures and towns." I was talking.
