After going to Odaiba for a pilgrimage and passing the Gundam guards in front of Diver City, take advantage of the evening glow to stroll to Odaiba Venus Fort to stroll around and fill up your hunger. I really feel that Odaiba is really a good place to shop, buy and play. The huge Gundam that can only be seen from a distance and cannot be touched up close, there are other ways to make up for this regret, that is, the Toyota Motor Show Center (MEGA WEB トヨタユニバーサル) next to Venus Fort, which is quite popular with car lovers. , Unfortunately, it will end on 2021st 21st, 21.
TOYOTA Odaiba Motor Showroom
MEGA WEB Toyota City ShowcaseIntroduction to MEGA WEB's basic information
MEGA WEB is an automobile exhibition center set up by Toyota Motor of Japan (TOYOTA) in Odaiba. The official website advertises an automobile theme park with the slogan "Visit, Ride, and Feel". Based on safety considerations, the activity is specially marked for tourists who understand Japanese, so that they can understand the guidance of on-site staff.Therefore, if you are familiar with Japanese and love cars, arranging a half-day event in the exhibition center is not a problem at all.According to the Chinese information on the official website of MEGAWEB, the entire exhibition center can be divided into four major areas:
- TOYOTA CITY SHOWCASE (11:00-21:00): Toyota Exhibition Hall displays a variety of innovative cars, you can actually open the door and sit in the car.
- HISTORY GARAGE (11:00-21:00): The Automobile History Museum displays Toyota's car products over the years, as well as a souvenir shop and coffee shop.
- RIDE STUDIO RIDE ONE (11:00-19:00): Provides a 230m indoor test drive track, and there are also toy cars for children to drive. (※Only Japanese instruction is provided in the venue. Participants must understand Japanese conversation.)
- FUN KART RIDE (11:00-18:00): It provides amusement facilities for driving karts, suitable for elementary school students to adults. (※Only Japanese instruction is provided in the venue. Participants must understand Japanese conversation.)
In the middle of 2021, the MEGA WEB official website announced the permanent closure of the entire museum on December 2021, 12, ending the 31-year business hours since its opening in March 1999. It has received a total of 3 million visitors. The large Ferris wheel has disappeared. Now that the new crown epidemic is raging, it is even more sentimental.However, I believe that the epidemic will eventually pass, and this place will be transformed into a new sightseeing and entertainment facility in the future. Let us wait and see.
▲ MEGA WEB will end at the end of 2021.

▲ Opposite the Venus Fort shopping center is the Toyota Motor Show Center.
▲ After riding the Ferris wheel next door (パレットタウン大覧覧), I stopped by to visit here, but unfortunately all on-site activities have ended.
▲ The exhibition venue is entirely based on display and experience. There is no salesperson to sell on the spot, so everyone can feel free to experience it.
▲ The horizontal pull door design looks quite suitable for silver-haired people, and it will not cause the rear knight to fall down because of the sudden opening of the door. ^^
▲ The products of electric mobility tools can be very diverse, and global manufacturers must have been racking their brains!
Coming soon and the experience of future cars
In Taiwan’s highly topical and attention-grabbing Gogoro electric locomotive, everyone can generally hold a positive attitude towards the appearance, quality and performance of the product. The only common question is "Who wants to buy an electric motor for 12 Taiwan dollars? Car?" Right.If the question becomes yes, are you willing to buy a single-seater electric car for 80 yen?I am willing! ! !But I can’t buy it in Taiwan~~
The most impressive product during this short visit to the Toyota Motor Show Center is this COMS single-seater small electric car, which is like a covered locomotive. The biggest feature is that it is protected from wind and rain. For people in subtropical countries, the biggest disadvantage is the lack of air-conditioning equipment.After all, for an electric car, the power-consuming air-conditioning equipment can save money!
When watching the live display, in addition to the stunning appearance and design, the most impressive thing was the use situation displayed by this electric car. In view of the energy and size problems of the electric car, the use situation of this car is positioned as commuting to work and commuting to school. , Shopping, delivery, home delivery and other purposes, clearly and as far as possible to give full play to the function of short-distance transportation of people and goods, if a boss is willing to help delivery service personnel to buy this transportation tool, I believe the employees will definitely be willing.
▲ Anya, who currently does not have a driver's license, really feels that she can drive this car!
▲Single-seater cars that are not lethal, I believe that many locomotive families will turn the table.
▲ On-site display B. COM model, B means Business, and the main purpose is for business use.
▲ The large storage space is indeed very suitable for business use.
▲ P. COM and B. COM's single-seater car shows DM.
