    It would “work”, but it would be aerodynamically unstable so would be limited to low speeds (<~25mph). This is why this configuration is quite common in construction/industry site machinery, where high speeds are unnecessary and unsafe.

      But why not make the windscreen the width of the vehicle, maybe wrap it around a bit. Should be similar in aerodynamics?

        Sure! But at that point you might as well just have a minivan with the seats folded down or removed

    I used to work at a furniture factory and we got all our steel delivered in a truck with this configuration. 8m and 10m lengths on the shortest possible wheelbase. No backseat though.

    Don’t you hate it when you have a genius idea, only to find out someone else thought of it long ago? Nice try, Einstein. Back to the sandbox.

    You can get this functionality by driving a hatchback and putting the passenger seat down. Those cars fit way more than you would think.

    In a collision, you are much safer if you are facing backwards because your spine aligns with the back of the seat instead of you rag-dolling forwards. So turn those seats around, too. The design is very human.

    I would fucking by the real version of that.

    conditions:

    No more than one computer.
    Rolling chassis frame with a hitch.
    Left hand drive.
    Good HVAC with front and rear vents.
    Physical controls for everything, giant central screen, no cellular.
