Tokyo, Oct 11 (SocialNews.XYZ) Japan will be hosting the Summer Olympics for the second time in its history in the months of July and August 2020.

The vehicles look like mini buses and each of them will have safety managers on board. Toyota also stated that the vehicles will be equipped to house the needs of the athletes. It can transport four wheelchair-bound passengers at the same time and they have been equipped with bigger doorways and electric ramps for the same.
