Abstract: This vehicle has a travel drive system including a travel power source and an energy source for this travel power source, wherein an outlet for discharging waste generated by the travel drive system faces the rear surface of the vehicle body. The outlet is offset in the vehicle width direction relative to a passenger opening. Further, relative to the center line between the center line of the vehicle body in the vehicle width direction and the end portion of the vehicle body in the vehicle width direction, the outlet is positioned to the end portion side of the vehicle body in the vehicle width direction. Relative to the center line between the center line and the end portion in the vehicle width direction, the right and left edges of the passenger opening are positioned to the side of the center line of the vehicle body in the vehicle width direction.

Abstract: In this vehicle, a rear opening is formed across the entire rear surface of the vehicle body in the vehicle width direction, a tailgate capable of opening and closing the rear opening is attached to the vehicle body so as to be capable of swinging up and down, a passenger opening is formed that allows passengers to enter and exit through the tailgate, and a seat is provided adjacently to the rear surface. The passenger opening is formed in a portion of the rear surface in the vehicle width direction. One end of the seat in the vehicle width direction is positioned on one end of the vehicle body in the vehicle width direction, and the other end of the seat in the vehicle width direction is positioned in a portion overlapping with the passenger opening in the vehicle width direction.

Abstract: A vehicle having a rear opening formed across the entire rear surface of the vehicle body, a tailgate attached to the vehicle body so as to be capable of swinging up and down and so as to open and close the rear opening, a passenger opening formed in a portion of the tailgate in the vehicle width direction for allowing passengers to board, and a door attached to the tailgate so as to be capable of opening and closing the passenger opening. A door latch which maintains the door in a closed state is attached to the door.

Abstract: A vehicle with a tail gate wherein the movement distance around the vehicle is reduced. In a vehicle with a tail gate, a tail gate is supported on a vehicle body such that a rear opening formed on the rear part of the vehicle body opens and closes. The tail gate has a sub opening formed on the tail gate, and a sub door for opening and closing the sub opening in the vehicle width direction. The width of the sub opening in the vehicle width direction is shorter than the width of the rear opening. One side border of the sub opening in the vehicle width direction is located in the vicinity of one edge of the tail gate in the vehicle width direction. The sub door is supported on the tail gate so as to begin to open from the side border of the opening.

Abstract: A glove box is pivotally mounted at a lower end thereof in an opening defined in an instrument panel. The glove box is angularly movable from the opening to an opening limit position in which the glove box is locked and partly opens the opening. The opening is defined by a partition assembly which includes a side partition having a rail. The glove box has a roll rotatably mounted on an arm coupled to a shaft rotatably supported on the glove box. When the glove box is in the opening limit position, the roll is engaged by the rail. To service an accessory device, such as the inflator of an air bag or the filter of an air-conditioning unit, disposed behind the opening, the shaft is rotated to turn the arm to displace the roll out of engagement with the rail, thus allowing the glove box to be tilted from the opening limit position to a fully open position in which the glove box fully opens the opening. The serviceman can now reach the accessory device directly through the opening.
