Mumbai Scooter/Pickup

Mumbai’s streets are perennially crowded, giving narrow vehicles a great advantage. Vladimir Almonnord’s idea was to graft a large load bed onto what is essentially a motorcycle. The OPOC engine provides plenty of power in the space under the rider’s seat while two outboard rear wheels provide stability. The open bed can carry substantial cargo, and it can be fitted with an enclosure for bad weather or when the cargo requires greater protection. While the overall vehicle is fairly long, it retains the narrow footprint required to negotiate Mumbai’s packed thoroughfares.

(I'm thinking perfect for e-commerce Amazon, Flipkart, etc.; gr8 for Ambulance with modifications)

When the loads are bulky but light, the forward module can provide all of the necessary power. But when the load is heavy, a second power unit can be added to the rear axle.
