A neat little taxi, the fact that it's safe and quiet enough to go inside large buildings/complexes is also neat. Just confused why it's called a "mini-tram", considering that it doesn't even remotely fit the definition. I mean it's not like it'll ever fill the role of a tram in any capacity, it'll always just be a fancy private taxi for shortish distances.

Now imagine if we took this, made it longer and flexible to fit more people, put it on steel rails for less rolling resistance. I wonder how that would work out.

It's not a tram, it's not the first ever vehicle to be able to move vertically with an elevator either. If any it resembles a car in a car elevator. It's something but it's definitely not a tram. Autonomous magnetically guided minibus.

I think it might be autonomous. At least, it looks exactly like some driverless vehicles that are being tested in my city. They can't navigate just anywhere though. They use cameras to follow a prescribed route. My guess is that this one follows the painted red line and uses cameras for collision avoidance.

this one follows magnets embedded in the ground

That's a car not a tram
Mini bus, not a car
It's a cram.
It runs on rails, which is called a tram or streetcar
I don't see any rails in the image?
I think it runs on a rail - my guess is the red line hides a track that the machine follows.
The red line is pavement. But it looks like there's a bit of very narrow gauge track that the car actually runs on to the left
