Toyota's AI Pod for Kids

Toyota has just pulled the wraps off the Kids Mobi, an AI-powered personal pod that’s being pitched as nothing less than your child’s new robotic best mate. Unveiled with a flourish at the Japan Mobility Show 2025, this little contraption aims to deliver safe, autonomous mobility alongside a hefty dose of developmental support – which, let’s be honest, sounds an awful lot like a rather sophisticated, wheeled childminder. So, the future of parenting has officially landed, and it bears an uncanny resemblance to a cheerful, orange toaster on wheels.
