Bicycle deliverymen may be out of a job if the Fluidi concept car ever becomes a reality. Designed by six students, Fluidi is a small electrically powered vehicle designed to transport either people or freight through crowded city streets.
Fluidi has a tricycle design with two wheels in the front and one in the rear. Fluidi can sit two people at once with passengers sitting right behind the driver. Traveling at a high rate of speed can be dangerous, which is why a door was included that encloses the passenger/cargo inside the vehicle. Small motorbikes and delivery trucks have long been used to ferry people and supplies from one part of a city to another. The Fluidi concept car could fit seamlessly between the two, providing the maneuverability of a motorcycle with the storage space of a truck.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Electric Transport Vehicles
- The emergence of electric transport vehicles for people and goods delivery to reduce environmental pollution and noise in crowded cities.
- Micro-mobility
- The growth of small and nimble vehicles that can weave through crowded city streets for efficient and safe delivery of people and goods.
- Cargo Tricycles
- The increasing development of tricycle designs for transporting goods through congested urban areas to reduce the reliance on large delivery trucks.
Sectors Adopting This
- Automotive
- Opportunities in the automotive industry to develop compact and eco-friendly transport vehicles for urban delivery and personal travel.
- Logistics
- Disruptive potential for the logistics industry in terms of last-mile delivery solutions using micro-mobility vehicles like the Fluidi concept car.
- Sustainability
- The emergence of new sustainability-oriented industries, companies and products, such as electric cargo tricycles and other urban micro-mobility solutions for eco-friendly delivery and transportation.
