Delivery Vans Don't Come Cuter Than This Little Sweetheart
Remember that episode of Postman Pat where Pat gets sucked through a wormhole and transported decades into the future? Okay, we just made that up, but this is what he would have driven. And it’s entirely real.
Designed for use in London by British tech firm Arrival, this is what happens when just about every conceivable property that could be designed into a vehicle takes a back seat to space-efficiency, but even we have to admit that it’s pretty damn cute.
Nine will be built in various sizes for Royal Mail to trial in the English capital. This one is the baby of the family, grossing out at 3.5 tonnes. There’s also a 7.5-tonne version, which worries us slightly because even the small one looks like it might fall over at the first sign of a corner. Thank diddy wheels that minimise any intrusion into the load bay (can we call it a letter box?).
They have a range of about 100 miles per charge thanks to ultra-lightweight materials that free up more weight for its deliveries. Royal Mail is going to test them for the next few months and make a call on whether or not to place an order. We sort of hope they do.

Aww :3
“Honey I stole the shuttle from the Orlando airport and shrunk it…”
I see it
So it weighs as much as a small Bentley. Not bad for the size
A bit of camber and purple anti sway bar, and not only it would help with handling but it would certainly steal the show of any jdm car meet.
I can’t imagine the size of the windshield wipers
You can actually just about see the wiper in the first picture. And yes, it’s rather substantial
Designed in Minecraft apparently
It looks like a miniature version of the London bus.
Modern day postman pat eats kale and has protein shakes every day.
