I really like your ideas of the cart and the  truck.
I would suggest the following "improvements":

Create the Ambulance -  can only carry wounded units back to a city
(not towards front lines) for rehabilitation.

How about a field Hospital - acts like Port Facility for ships -
wounded ground units are repaired in a single turn (or maybe just accelerated).

I believe it is a Geneva Convention rule that in war ambulances (or vehicles
identified by a Red Cross, or a Red Crescent ?) can only carry the wounded
and cannot be attacked. Maybe someone can confirm or correct?
