cargo-scooter2A new scooter concept is designed around the task of hauling cargo in the most direct way possible – it’s a moped with a hole in it.

It’s been known since the device came into being that mopeds, scooters, and motorcycles are far more space- and fuel-efficient than cars and trucks. They’re also dirt cheap compared to the four-wheeled behemoths we use to get aroud, most of which are a passable year’s salary. So why are they clogging the streets of Asia but not here?

A Scooter With A Hole In It!
If you are wanting to downsize or eliminate the need for a gas guzzler and are worried about carrying around, say, a dishwasher, you no longer have to buy an SUV; just buy a scooter with a hole in it. Keeping balance on this strikes us as an issue, but hey, if Chinese counter-terror cops can make Segways work, then we feel confident nothing bad is going to happen on a scooter. And with that development, the possibilities really become limitless; the concept even includes a model for DHL, the German shipping giant.

Will it come to fruition? Lets hope so!
