Read this article on how Toyota is making vehicles to fit everyone's needs

Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) is to display eight specially equipped vehicles and two of its healthcare and nursing-support robots at the International Home Care and Rehabilitation Show (H.C.R.) tradeshow, to be held at the Tokyo International Exhibition Center (Tokyo Big Sight) in Koto Ward, Tokyo from September 26 through 28.  The H.C.R. event is the largest of its kind in Japan.
In response to the aging of Japan's population, TMC has been developing and marketing vehicles specially equipped to meet the diverse needs of senior citizens and others who might require extra care or support.  At the H.C.R. event, TMC will display such vehicles and highlight the company's approach to vehicle development.
TMC will exhibit eight Welcab-series vehicles with factory-installed features for the disabled and the elderly, including the new "Porte" Lift-up Front Passenger Seat model launched in Japan in July, the new "Spade" Side-access model that can easily bring a person in a detachable passenger seat or wheelchair directly into the front passenger area, and wheelchair-adapted vehicles that allow vehicle ingress and egress for people seated in wheelchairs.
TMC will also exhibit the improved "Walk Training Assist" robot and "Patient Transfer Assist" robot, two of the Partner Robots that TMC announced in November 2011.  These robots are currently being developed to provide support in the realms of nursing and medical treatment and to provide freedom of movement to all people.
