Kubo is a cargo-carrying electric scooter now seeking crowdfunding on Kickstarter that offers potential far beyond the realm of personal transportation. 50 mile range, 45 mph top speed, 300-lb capacity (for cargo and rider) plus a 22 x 22-inch square cargo area with tie-down hooks.

Ask any e-commerce analyst what the hottest upcoming trend will be in e-commerce circles next year -- the Amazons and eBays of this world -- and you're likely to get the same answer: Same-day or even same-hour delivery.

Looks interesting for someone without a car who needs to do things like grocery shopping, etc.

It is too fragile to be on our local roads. I read bicycle and motorcycle accidents every day here in our papers. It could be another victim of careless car and truck drivers.

Those small wheels make these scooters unstable.
