This is the ideal mail body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like. https://t.co/kbYEOjkqiM

People are poisoned by SUV thinking, but this is actually a really good design for the intended purpose:
1) High front and side visibility. Less likely to hit anyone. Hopefully it, being modern, has backup cameras and such.
2) Boxy shape maximizes cargo area for size, and accessibility.
3) Low grille and bumper means fewer pedestrians are harmed if struck.
4) Tall side window makes it easier to deliver to mailboxes at varying heights.
5) Relatively small size makes it easier to maneuver and to park.
6) Relatively small wheels and tires increases fuel efficiency (including electric).
7) Low ride height makes it more stable and less likely to harm someone in another vehicle if an accident occurs.
8) And of course, right-hand drive for I hope obvious reasons.
