[Theme]Regional Depopulation × Sustainability & Social Infrastructure
Mobility Will Change Regions! The Key to Revitalizing Depopulated Areas
As the concentration of the population in Tokyo and the declining birthrate and aging population progress, regional economies are becoming exhausted, and the problem of "mobility refugees" is becoming more serious due to an increase in people with limited mobility and a reduction in public transportation. As it becomes difficult for the elderly to live their daily lives and go to the hospital, mobility services are a top priority for regional issues, and complex needs that cannot be met by conventional vehicle sales are becoming apparent.
