On Monday , Toyota announced that they ’re creating self-reliant pizza vehicles , designed to deliver pizza pie for Pizza Hut without the need for humans . Everyone , other than sci - fi - horrorBlack Mirrorfans , seems to be on board with the theme .

They ’ve even think up other nifty niggling theme for their design , such as a portable shoe shop that comes to your home when you take raw shoe .

So far , so awesome .

Yesterday , however , Toyota announce another construct for the vehicle , but people do n’t look to have taken to it as much . The car giant has declare they ’re teaming up with   Uber in an attempt to create a fomite that can be used for sharing drive .

Like the pizza livery trucks , this scheme is intended to be fully - electric and has some coolheaded plus - sides , such as being better for the environment .

Unfortunately , everyone ca n’t get over the fact that Uber and Toyota are essentially attempting to excogitate a autobus .

Some were more indignant than others .

Even a company that basically just advises hoi polloi on which tube route to take got in on the action .

They are sort of correct , it is essentially a bus . Nevertheless , it ’s a bus with some pretty straight features . The e - Palette , which Toyotashowed off at CES on Monday , is galvanic , will be in full - sovereign and could suit a range of purposes .

The construct is in reality moderately far along , and will be debut at the Tokyo Olympic games in 2020 .

The company   enjoin at CES that the vehicle could be used as a to the full - transferable autonomous shop .

" It is an unresolved , elastic platform easily adapted to suit a range of uses , include drive - sharing , delivery , and retail,“CNBC reports . " Today you have to travel to the store . In the future , the fund will journey to you . "

The company said that they were responding to a private-enterprise market that was looking more and more towards self - drive engineering .

" Our competitors no longer just make cars . company like Google , Apple , and even Facebook are what I think about at night , because , after all , we did n’t start off making car either , " companionship president Akio Toyoda said .

" Technology is changing quickly in our industry , and the airstream is on . "

In that airstream , Toyota will be using a bus .
