VENDING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ZERO EMISSIONS VEHICLES

A zero emissions, autonomous vehicle system includes a zero emissions, autonomous vehicle configured to navigate one or more roadways independently of a human driver and including an electrical power source electrically coupled to a motor of the vehicle; a passenger compartment within an interior volume of the vehicle and configured to support human passengers; and a vending system mounted at least partially in the interior volume and electrically coupled to the electrical power source. The vending system includes an accessible enclosure that includes at least one temperature-controlled compartment configured to store vending products; and a control system including a user interface and configured to operate the accessible enclosure to provide human access to the temperature-controlled compartment based on human interactions with the user interface.
