The electricity for the Wi-Fi supposedly comes, in part, from the solar panels attached to the petals and stems of the flower sculptures. The exhibit — called “Harmony Between Man, Nature and Machine” — will next turn up in New York and then move on to Chicago, Seattle and San Francisco before ending its tour in L.A.
For a car as distinct and engrained in our culture as the Prius, it’s a good move by Toyota to hype its most efficient Prius model yet — plus everyone likes free Wi-Fi.
