Abstract

A micromobility vehicle for use in a vehicle share system includes a frame, a footboard fixed to the frame, a seat fixed to the frame, handlebars, and a computing device. The frame includes a horizontal portion and an angled portion. The seat is separated from the footboard in a vertical direction by a fixed distance. The handlebars are separated from the footboard in the vertical direction by a fixed distance. A cargo storage location is at least partially disposed between the seat and the footboard. The computing device is fixed to the frame and capable of executing a transportation matching system application.
