Toyota Motor Corp. says it will have working models of its futuristic Concept-I and e-Palette concept vehicles at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.

The e-Palette (pictured) is a fully autonomous electric vehicle that will be used to shuttle athletes and their guests during the games. The Concept-I car, which recognizes drivers’ emotions and uses artificial intelligence to converse with passengers, will be demonstrated to attendees.
 

Toyota unveiled a static version of the sleek Concepti two-seater at the 2016 CES electronics show in Las Vegans. The toaster-shaped e-Palette was shown there in January.

Toyota is a top Olympics sponsor and the official “mobility partner” of the 2020 Olympics and Paralympics Games. The carmaker also plans to demonstrate a fuel cell-powered bus and other advanced technology vehicles during games.
