April Fools' Alert #8: Kia launches a Wii-driven car
If the truly, unforgivably old are given a driver's license despite their age, why is the same right not extended to children? That's the question automobile maker Kia dares to ask with their new KEE_wii, which forgoes the steering wheel in favor of a Wiimote.
According to the release, the car also features Dynamic On-Road Kinetics, Full Orthopaedic Operating Logic and Independent Driver Input Operating Technique, which we're told by people who are more skilled in acronym identification is hilarious. We'll take them at their word.

Controlling an actual car with a Wii Remote? This would cause a lot of deaths.

Not if you use the expertly crafted Wii Wheel!

"which forgoes the steering wheel in favor of a Wiimote."
I guess there was more use to the Wii Wheel than just MK Wii

Does Napoleon have something to do with a Kiwi? Why is he looking into the car?

The Kia KEE_wii is just two Kia Rios duct-taped together.
samfish @ Apr 1st 2008 5:21PM
The only reason Kee_Wii's outsell BMWs and Porsches every month is because they're so much cheaper and only uninformed idiots buy them.
