The use case I'm imagining is people going shopping, and wanting to put bags from one store away in their car before going into another. So what if you could summon up a self-driving car, put your stuff in its trunk for a fee, and then call back the same car later with your stuff still in its trunk? It could go be a taxi while you're busy shopping, and not allow other customers to unlock its trunk.

- frankus 15y agoI think you're spot on. But I think the removable trunk will be combined with a passenger-less unit that carries the trunk back to your house and drops it off. Sort of a tiny version of container shipping.
- eurleif 15y agoThat sounds like something that might happen in the farther future, but I expect there will be a lot of general-purpose auto-driving cars made before companies start making super-specialized models like that.
