Why? Because they know how to sell things.

And its no competition for the Segway because Segways were never legal in Japan. Too big and fast for their sidewalks. Can't compete with something that never made it out of the gate.
The segway p133 is a true last mile device, a small, portable, and most importantly, capable device. With it's tiny wheels and limited speed I wouldn't trust the winglet on anything other than smooth flat ground which is what you will encounter .003 percent of the time during average use as a last mile device. Were the p133 to be re-introduced at a lower price point, the winglet would be rendered nothing more than a mere trinket for Toyota fanatics.
