The CarGo has one seat and provides three standard configurations:

  • Compact mode.
  • Narrow mode with banking corner action.
  • Pick-up truck mode for larger payloads.

Due to its inherent flexibility, the CarGo would be an invaluable addition to any urban delivery company’s fleet by offering:

  • Enhanced versatility for use in congested areas due to variable mode options.
  • Faster delivery time in heavy traffic as Narrow mode gives reduced width and higher manoeuvrability.
  • Easier parking due to compact size.
  • Eco-friendly status as a zero-emission electric vehicle.
  • Reduced running costs i.e. lower fuel and road tax costs, congestion charge exempt.
  • Clip-On composite body panels allow for corporate branding and low repair costs.

The “CarGo Pod” (storage compartment) is removable to further reduce the vehicle length making it ideal for commuters.
