Disclosed is an electric vehicle having four wheels and a body having a cockpit defined therein, the cockpit containing a single seat and being closable to form an enclosure around the seat. The body has a front bumper having a width that is greater than a front track width of the vehicle. A width of the vehicle is between 1200 mm and 1600 mm, and a height of a centre of mass of the vehicle above a ground surface on which the vehicle is disposed is less than a third of the width of the vehicle. The electric vehicle may be suited for use in urban environments, and may provide benefits in terms of improved safety and maneuverability.

A cabin specifically designed for people disabled with different dexterities: The cabin has several universal manufacturing systems comprising a chassis consisting of pipes being covered by a system of individual panels of transparent flexible vinyl, the panels being individually attached around the pipes of the frame with different and distinct fastening systems, and the system has two sliding door panels of transparent flexible vinyl comprising a magnet closure system, two different systems of distinct elements of the scooter having welded perforated adapters on top of their elements fixed to the scooter, two different systems of narrow slats installed on scooter floor, two different systems forming the rear lower part of the scooter, and the system of supported pipes of chassis is fixed to the roof system, the removable panels from the supporter pipes of chassis being system for converting cabin roof to canopy.

A motor vehicle body for light weight construction comprises at least a bottom unit, a roof and side units (3), which are assembled to form at least part of the motor vehicle body. At least the side units include an inner shell element (3a) and an outer shell element (3g) made of injection molded plastics material and are attached to each other by attachment areas (4) to form a torsion stiff box structure. The inner and/or outer shell element may comprise a strut structure (5) extending from an inner shell element surface in between the shell elements towards the opposing shell element to realize the torsion stiff box structure.

A towable road motor vehicle including: at least three wheels, capable of driving the motor vehicle on a level road, distributed between two front and rear wheel trains of the motor vehicle; a chassis, including an articulation device, interposed between front and rear portions of the chassis and enabling the front portion to pivot, relative to the rear portion, to modify an articulation angle of the vehicle; front and rear hitches, respectively positioned at the front and rear of the motor vehicle, and a steering device, capable of modifying the steering angle of each wheel of the front train in response to a command by a driver of the vehicle, the steering device adapted to be actuated independently of the articulation device.

A stackable vehicle is provided and includes a deck, pairs of controllable support elements at each of a first pair of opposed minor surfaces of the deck and comprising a first leg affixed to the deck and transversely telescopic relative to a corresponding minor surface plane, a second leg coupled to a distal end of the first leg and telescopic in parallel with the corresponding minor surface plane and a pivotable and rotatable wheel disposed at a distal end of the second leg and pairs of controllable support elements at each of a second pair of opposed minor surfaces of the deck and comprising a first leg affixed to the deck, a second leg coupled to a distal end of the first leg and telescopic in parallel with a corresponding minor surface plane and a pivotable and rotatable wheel disposed at a distal end of the second leg.

An energy absorbing structure positioned proximate a vehicle body and a battery housing reduces impact forces imparted to a battery during a side collision. The energy absorbing structure may include energy absorbers positioned on longitudinal sides of the vehicle between the vehicle body and the battery housing. The energy absorbers can represent one or more hollow tubes having a passage aligned with a vent of the battery housing to receive gas from the battery housing and redirect the gas to an area away from a passenger compartment or an exit of the vehicle.
