You have to be kidding me! As far as marketing the Segway is considered only second to the 1984 Apple Mac super bowl commercial. No product ever has generated so much hype before its unveiling.
For what it does its design is elegant and its user interface couldn't be simpler.
It may not be a commercial success at over 50,000 units sold, but its design and marketing are top notch. If you want a failure look at the Aptera. It will never be produced in numbers to even threaten the Delorean.
