Can we live without the need for cars?

Could our cities thrive without personal vehicles, relying instead on innovative mobility solutions? Join AutoLooks, as we challenge the conventional car-centric urban model by exploring Toyota's groundbreaking Woven City project. Despite being an automobile giant, Toyota

is crafting a vision where diverse, interconnected transit systems take precedence, transforming urban life into a seamless tapestry of movement and accessibility. From the history of car-driven urban sprawl to the ingenious ways Japan moves people in limited spaces, we examine both the promises and hurdles of car-free cities. As someone who loves cars yet lives outside the reach of public transit, I navigate the complexities and potential of this transformative urban shift.
