April 7, 2009 (Computerworld) Struggling General Motors Corp. is hoping that one answer to people’s green transportation needs lies in a two-wheeled, two-seat electric vehicle it jointly developed with Segway Inc. GM and Segway today unveiled a prototype of their PUMA (personal urban mobility and accessibility) vehicle, which officials said will be a safe, clean alternative to regular four-wheeled, gas-guzzling vehicles. Segway is the maker of the Segway Personal Transporter which Apple Inc. co-founder Steve Wozniak is famously known for using.
