It is being tested and developed by Hyundai in their new facility called New Horizon Studio at the Montana State University Innovation Campus.  Hyundais' New Horizon Studio is also developing and producing a second vehicle, the autonomous TIGER with robotic legs.  This is a major initiative by Hyundai, which intends to invest $20 million and employ 50 people at the Studio to develop "Ultimate Mobility Vehicles". Breakthrough Technologies in Elevate The Elevate is an all-terrain vehicle that is virtually unstoppable.  It can drive on its wheels and walk through or climb over tough

  A Car That Walks                                             Source:  Hyundai Tiger Combines Robotics with Transportation South Korean automaker Hyundai is taking a leading role in the future of transportation innovation. It just unveiled its latest concept vehicle - Tiger - an electric, autonomous driving & walking car.  The vehicle innovatively combines robotics with transportation.  Hyundai calls it a UMV or ultimate mobility vehicle.  It is designed to change from a 4 wheel drive vehicle for road and off-road travel to a 4 leg walking vehicle when necessary to climb over obstacles that it can't drive over.  Tiger stands for Transforming Intelligent Ground Excursion Robot. Fully Autonomous Tiger is designed to be driverless and crewless with no passengers onboard. It is all electric and runs on four electric engines, each on top of each wheel.  It is fully autonomous.  Its purpose is to carry packages, material and payloads to hard to reach places, including disaster areas
