1. A dynamic and transformative vehicle system including:
a driving module having at least one axle and a non-driving module having at least one axle,
a processor in the non-driving module;
a vehicle operation control system in the driving module comprising:
an interactive digital console screen;
a graphical user interface (GUI) module:
a processor in the driving module; and
a memory including processor-readable instructions, when executed by the processor in driving module, causes the processor in driving module to:
receive an indication that a coupling and configuration process between the driving module and the non-driving module is complete,
perform a first verification operation to verify proper connections between the driving module and the non-driving module,
perform a second verification operation to verify a locking mechanism connecting the driving module and non-driving module is locked, and
transmit information indicating the first verification operation and the second verification operation are complete to a graphical user interface (GUI) module of the vehicle operation control system in the driving module;
receive identification and status information from the non-driving module,
generate a representative image of a coupled vehicle including the driving module coupled to the non-driving module,
transmit information representative of:
the representative image,
an estimated battery status, and
an estimated driving range to the GUI module for display on the console screen, and
display interactive vehicle operation control functions referencing the representative image on the interactive digital console screen.
