How do you carry luggage, kids, pets, large quantities of groceries, and a million other things on a scooter?
For most people, a scooter or e-bike is, at best, a dangerous and expensive secondary vehicle.

For example, “frunks” still look like they could contain an IC engine from the outside, but we could design electric sedans that look more like pickup trucks by re-arranging that space to give up the traditional car look. Same for high capacity seating.
