Japanese motor giant Honda has designed the first car to be marketed exclusively to women.
The Honda Fit She's comes in colours inspired by popular eyeshadow shades (yes, that includes pink), and has a windscreen that 'helps prevent wrinkles'.
The $17,500 vehicle also has an air-conditioning system that apparently improves the driver's skin quality.

Here are a couple previous cars that were designed and marketed towards women in Japan:
