Default Anyone fit a pocketbike in the hatch area?

I need to drive about 3 hours each way this weekend to pickup a Minimoto Honda Electric Pocket Bike that's about 4 feet long and am wondering if anyone has put one of these things or something similar in the hatch area.

I would love to pick it up in my Insight rather than making the trip in the gas hog minivan.

TIA

I put my Go-Ped in the back of mine but it folds into a bit smaller.

I cant say for certain but I really doubt you can fit it in there. Even if you can, I imagine it would be pretty unsafe.

Default problem solved

I purchased a kid's bicycle from the same seller and now have no choice but to take the van since there is no way they would both fit in the Insight!
