Nope. Two wheels in front and wider. Seriously stable and I suspect handles pretty well. I just bought a Scion FRS last month for my 122 mile commute. If they sold this car in KY, I’d almost certainly buy it right now, even with the Scion.

I don’t believe the price, though.

How much is the tilter? It looks pretty cool too.

That looks like a very basic knockoff of the Toyota i-Road electric vehicle.

It has so-called “active lean” technology to keep such a narrow vehicle stable in turns. It’s sort of cool in a Tron-like way, the Toyota concept is at least.

This link shows a video of several prototypes on the road:
