Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

It looks cool, but it seems harder to put either large cargo and also securing smaller cargo. If you go shopping, you can just put the bags in the cargo space of a bakfiets or similar bike, here you need to put it into those boxes, which are somewhat nasty to transport. As soon as something is too large to fit in a box, you need to strap it on separatly, which again takes time.

The frame makes it also very limiting for larger objects. There's definitely better / more practicable cargo bike designs.
