Japan introduced the world’s 1st Dual-Mode Vehicle

Japan has introduced the world’s first dual-mode vehicle (DMV) resembling a minibus in its hometown of Kayo. The vehicle can run on normal rubber tires on the road, but its steel wheels, which are on its underside, come down when it hits the railroad tracks.
The DMV can carry 21 passengers and can run at a speed of 60 km/h on rail tracks and about 100 km/h on public roads.
The front tyres are lifted off the track and the rear wheels stay down to propel the DMV onto the railway. This feature of effectively changing into a train-like module easily on a rail track is the first of its kind.
