Abstract: Vehicles, components, and methods are disclosed for preparing hot food during delivery or at a remote location. A multi-modal food distribution system may operate in one or more various modes, including a constellation mode, a cook enroute mode, and a pop-up kitchen mode, to deliver hot, prepared food to customers. The vehicles in the system may be configurable to change between each of the different modes depending upon information received by the system. The system may in the constellation mode include additional delivery vehicles that retrieve food from a vehicle that serves as a hub. The additional delivery vehicles may deliver the food to the delivery destination. In the cook enroute mode, the vehicle may prepare and cook food enroute to a delivery destination. In a pop-up kitchen mode, the vehicle may prepare food for pick up by customers.
