    EdenVehicles (66K) Urban development advanced rapidly on emigrant planets, such as Eden. In the 2040's, Eden took pride as a highly popular sightseeing spot. The planet's traffic network is maintained at a high level, and they appear to have been maintained so that such people as residents and tourists could pass time without stress.

    Motorcycles and automobiles were also the indispensable "legs" of the resident's transportation, and in addition to their usefulness, a lot of vehicles ran on the planet. Moreover, such vehicles as the sports car, which was a stickler for such things as speed and controllability, and the limousine, which had showy ornamentation applied to it, were used on the planet. Vehicles on Eden also had a cultural side that denoted such things as the owner's preferences and authority.

    These ordinary vehicles have had the latest technology (at the time) incorporated into them. A variety of passenger vehicles dash around the streets of Eden. The vehicles of this age don't have axles. The rim drive system, where the drive mechanism is built into the rims, has become standard.

    Isamu's motorcycle and Guld's sports car seem to be ready-made goods that are generally marketed on Eden. Such vehicles as buses and taxis were seen as the legs of Eden's residents.
