Here is an overview of the Star Citizen cargo ships.
Different aesthetic and capabilities then Traveller- most trips are less then an hour, multi system will be a few hours at most, so very few proper staterooms- flop beds and snack galleys are the norm.

Small package trade, literally. Very handy for players in a video game, horrendous tare weight and volume limitations vs cargo carried. They do have a TEU container for the bigger ships like the MISC Hull series, the external mount cargo haulers.
