My first impression is that the ultimate vehicle is shoe leather or a bicycle.
The original Willis Jeep - small, light and all of 36 HP or so, and geared low, giving you a maximum speed of about 50mph wide open - might be the icon to shoot for. Simple, durable, repairable, all-terrain, and efficient.
The Zap Xebra might be a good over road vehicle. All-electric two-seat car:
