The present invention is a multi-use dynamically reconfigurable vehicle, used for vehicle/ride sharing with integral yet reconfigurable for optimal passenger or courier service by reconfiguring the vehicle interior space and/or body shape specific to the vehicle service to create additional space respectively for the transport of passengers or cargo/boxes. The vehicle is particularly adept at reconfiguration with compatibility of an external automated process to load/unload its cargo while also enabling a high aerodynamic efficiency while in a driving mode.

A utility vehicle transformable cargo box includes a cargo box floor, a first base panel hinged to the front of the cargo box floor, and a second base panel hinged to a front of the first base panel and to a load guard that can slide between a first non-extended position and a second extended position. A pair of side extension panels are pivotably attached to the ends of the load guard, are positioned up against the load guard in the first non-extended position, and extend forward from the cargo box walls in the second extended position.

A method for a display system of a motor vehicle is provided. The motor vehicle comprises one or more seats for occupants of the vehicle, the position and/or orientation of the seats within an interior of the motor vehicle being variable. The method comprises: determining a position and/or orientation of the seats; determining an orientation at least a first portion of an image to be displayed by the display system according to the position and/or orientation of the seats; and displaying the image such that at least the first portion of the image is in the determined orientation. A display system for a motor vehicle is also provided.

A utility vehicle includes a plurality of ground engaging members and a frame supported by the plurality of ground engaging members. The frame assembly extends generally along a longitudinal axis of the utility vehicle. The utility vehicle further includes a front seating section coupled to the frame. The front seating section is configured to support an operator and a first passenger. Additionally, the utility vehicle includes a rear seating section coupled to the frame. The rear seating section is configured to support a second passenger and a third passenger. The rear seating section has an angled panel configured as a dead pedal for the second and third passengers, and a portion of the rear seating section extends forwardly into the front seating section.

A selectively pivotable mid-gate for a vehicle includes a first mid-gate member pivotally mounted to the vehicle through a hinge member and a second mid-gate member is pivotally mounted to the vehicle and the first mid-gate member through the hinge member. A latch system is operatively connected to the first mid-gate member and the second mid-gate member. The latch system is selectively operable to release the first mid-gate member to rotate in a first direction and to release the first mid-gate member and the second mid-gate member to rotate in a second direction that is opposite the first direction.

A utility vehicle includes a cargo box and a seat device located on the front side of the cargo box. The seat device includes a seat bottom and a seat back that includes a first lateral swinging shaft that extends in a lateral direction, a seat back frame that swings about the first lateral swinging shaft between an upright position and a horizontal position at which the seat back frame overlaps with the seat bottom, and a seat back main body that is attached to the seat back frame. The seat back frame in the horizontal position defines an expansion floor by which the floor of the cargo box is expanded in a forward direction. The seat back main body swings to a hanging orientation with respect to the seat back frame in the horizontal position and is located in front of the seat bottom.

A mounting structure for vehicle equipment includes a vehicle body frame, a bracket attached to the vehicle body frame, and a plurality of vehicle equipment including at least one seat. The bracket and the plurality of vehicle equipment are configured so that the plurality of vehicle equipment each is mounted to the bracket so as to be replaceable with the other vehicle equipment.

A utility vehicle is configured for off-road terrain and may include a plurality of mounting members configured to support a load and/or support the vehicle during transport. The utility vehicle also includes an upper frame assembly which is movable between a first position and second position. The upper frame assembly may be moved to the second position during transportation of the utility vehicle. Further, the utility vehicle includes a plurality of configurations for a rear cargo area, thereby allowing for passengers or cargo to be supported.
