Wouldn't it be an improvement if the e-Cargo Box replaced some of those unnecessarily large delivery vans that block off precious city parking spaces and turning lanes? This was precisely Mohammad Ghezel's intention in developing this concept, to provide a more compact alternative when only small consignments need to be moved.
The nimble electric vehicle can get into tight alleys and even back up against curbs in order to bring shipped goods as close to their destined addresses as possible. The four-wheeled conveyance simply comprises a cabin for a single driver and an adjustable chassis for its flexible flatbed. The storage compartment of the e-Cargo Box is less than 2 feet deep and capable of being oriented according to convenience and its contents.
