The Honda WOW ("Wonderful Open-hearted Wagon") was a concept car created by the automobile division of Honda, first introduced at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show. The WOW was designed to fit the needs of both a person and dogs.
The WOW concept was built with a low center of gravity, giving it a more stable driving experience. This low center of gravity, along with the addition of wood-paneled floors, aimed to make dogs to feel more comfortable in the WOW. It also sported a state-of-the-art instrument panel featuring a lid that revealed a crate to carry smaller dogs. It also included average ventilation and a center walk-through, allowing dogs to walk around the car.
The Design Cues have been continued in the Honda Freed, which came out in 2008.
