I wouldn't be so sure about that. With Ikea flat-pack cabinets and a small enough kitchen design (e.g. galley kitchen in a tiny apartment), I wouldn't be surprised if you could fit everything except the appliances in one of those tiny cars.
Of course, it'd probably be easier to fit them on a bicycle with a proper trailer.
That's an amazing trailer! Add in an ebike and you could haul almost anything you need for the vast majority of home projects.
You never tried that yourself, am I right?
What, the tiny car thing or the bike trailer thing?
I don't have an Aygo/500 or a fancy Bikes at Work trailer, but I have hauled stuff in the Hyundai Accent hatchback I used to own and towed cargo in a cheap Instep bicycle trailer.
(I admit, a Hyundai Accent hatchback is quite a bit bigger than an Aygo or 500, especially with the rear seats folded down. It can hold enough that I'd be more worried about maxing out weight capacity when hauling flat-pack cabinets, rather than having sufficient cargo volume for them.)
