Carrito Rear Modular Dock Standard
CSG-Go Compatibility Document

Carrito Program Information:

Overview

The Carrito Modular Dock is the standardized rear interface used in Carrito Small Grid – Go (CSG-Go) vehicles. The purpose of this dock is to allow future upgrades, attachments, and extensions without requiring major reconstruction of the vehicle frame.

By maintaining a consistent rear docking structure, CSG-Go vehicles built today can be modified or upgraded later through certified coordination shops or custom builders.

The Modular Dock represents the transition point between the fixed vehicle structure and any optional rear modules.


Dock Location

The Carrito Modular Dock begins at the rear structural boundary of the engine and drivetrain section of the vehicle.

Everything forward of this boundary is considered part of the core vehicle structure.

Everything behind this boundary is considered part of the modular expansion area.


Dock Structural Elements

The Carrito Modular Dock must include the following structural features:

Rear frame extension rails
Reinforced attachment points
Cross-member support structure
Load-bearing connection points for rear modules

These structural elements must be capable of supporting future equipment or passenger extensions without compromising the stability of the main vehicle frame.


Dock Mounting Interface

The docking interface should provide mounting points that allow modules to be attached using bolts or other removable fastening methods.

Recommended features include:

Parallel mounting rails
Standardized bolt pattern zones
Cross-member attachment points

These features allow modules to be installed, removed, or replaced as needed.


Accessory Integration

The rear dock may also support optional accessory systems including:

Electrical accessory connectors
Lighting extensions
Utility mounting brackets
Trailer hitch mounts

These features expand the functional capability of the vehicle while maintaining compatibility with the Carrito platform.


Future Module Compatibility

The standardized dock allows a wide range of modules to be developed over time. Possible module types may include:

Cargo platforms
Utility racks
Small equipment carriers
Passenger extension frames
Work tool mounts

Because the dock remains consistent, different shops can design modules that remain compatible with existing vehicles.


Dock Preservation Rule

The Carrito Modular Dock must remain structurally intact in all CSG-Go builds.

Builders may attach modules or accessories to the dock, but they may not remove or significantly alter the base docking structure if they wish to maintain Carrito compatibility.


Upgrade Programs

Standardizing the rear dock allows future programs to exist where existing vehicles may be upgraded.

Examples may include:

Passenger expansion upgrades
Utility conversion packages
Cargo transport configurations

These upgrades may be performed by independent builders or by Carrito Certified Coordination shops depending on the complexity of the modification.
