A compact electric vehicle, for example a parcel delivery vehicle or a golf trolley, has one set of rear wheels 202 configured to be rotated by one or more electric motors, two sets of front wheels 204A, 204B and a steering column 208 with a single linkage steering mechanism 208A for manoeuvring the vehicle. Steering column 208 is moveable to switch the vehicle between a first mode of operation and a second mode of operation, for example a walking mode and a riding mode. A frame 209 connects rear wheels 202 and the electric motors with front wheels 204A, 204B and single linkage steering mechanism 208A. Steering column is configured to be tiltable relative to the frame to control, when in use, a direction of travel of the vehicle. The motor may have a power rating of 2000 watts.
