Increase vehicle legroom.
Reduce vehicle production costs.
In comparison with available small vehicles that have virtually no trunk, this design provides a full-size interior and ample storage despite its compact size, making it both fuel-efficient and cost-effective to build.
If the trunk is eliminated, cargo can still be stored inside the vehicle by folding the back seats. In this scenario, the retractable trunk can be used when the back seats are occupied by passengers, adding to versatility and space utilization.
The detachable wheeled box serves as a shopping trolley, enabling seamless indoor cargo loading and unloading.
The foldable box, made of hard, durable plastic or metal, occupies minimal space when not in use.
The retractable trunk is not an aftermarket product, and incorporating it as an extra storage solution is easy to implement. However, replacing the traditional trunk with it, while feasible, requires integration into the design process from the very beginning.
