I hate to be that guy but this is setting off my AI-sense.
The rear differential looks like a normal one but the pinion is facing the rear of the vehicle. It's hard to tell but maybe it's some weird rear-engined transaxle setup?
There's no real floor pan or frame rails.
The front member looks entirely asymmetrical which would be off. The steering knuckles also don't look like they match. I don't see any suspension attachments points for shocks / springs.
This is either a very, very strange vehicle or AI.
Looks to be some sort of flatbed utility vehicle, like the ones that arena grounds workers use to get around, or the ones that airports use for luggage transit. Maybe one you might see the handyman at an apartment complex driving around. Something like that perhaps, at least that is what I see.
The small and thin tires seem to indicate it is a light duty vehicle, so I wouldn't expect it to be doing any heavy lifting.

Looks like a light duty yard tug or an electric cart.

I agree, there's a lot of weird looking things in there that don't add up. Hard to tell if AI or if it just got mangled during salvage or whatever.
Someone else said it's some sort of small tug, and I think they may be right.
Also the huge metal bar at the top end that would be holding the tires up off the ground even if you flipped it over
Exactly, this thing would need plenty of ground clearance. I can't see that being a thing with no visible suspension.
I screenshotted this from a video so its not ai (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4v-JEfuVJs&t=96s) at 1:37
Interesting! Maybe I was being overly critical.
Maybe it's electric and the part sticking out from the rear diff is the motor and the hole in the floor is where the battery pack was sitting at.
Broken. It's a broken vehicle.

Scrap
That has to be a fork truck or plane puller thing (wtf are they called lol)
A tug. That's definitely not a tug.
It could be a luggage tug
looks like one of them little cars that runs on the railroad tracks.. kinda acts like a tugboat for railroad stuff
Probably not with rubber tires. But now I'm curious about the train tugboat 🤓
Forklift. I'm like 95% sure.
A broken toy car on some other decomposing junk mix
