It’s my 40th birthday today (big night tonight!) and the site of this baby put a smile on my face. This itsy bitsy little pet hybrid car of the future by Honda, named Puyo was first unveiled at last year’s Tokyo Motor Show. Isn’t he cute? Yes, he’s definitely a boy. More photos.

“The PUYO’s meant to convey a warm, friendly impression and bring together ‘clean’, ’safe’ and ‘fun’ functionality in an environmentally responsible, people-friendly minimalist design featuring an ultra-high efficiency, small frame and fuel cell technology.” Jalopnik

And I love this. “It’s called the PUYO, a Japanese onomatopoeia expressing the sensation of — please don’t laugh here — the design team worked very hard on it — “touching the vehicle’s soft body.” Jalopnik

Oh shiny and soft Puyo. With you, who needs a boyfriend to cuddle with? (Me kidding) Your skin is glowing.
