U.K.-based cycling company Raleigh is launching a brand new cargo e-trike that is designed to make it easier than ever for families, including those with young children, to go about carrying out regular errands such as grocery-shopping and school pick-ups without having to rely on cars.
The 'Stride 3' is a cargo e-trike that comes equipped with a Bosch motor that is more than capable of handling heavier loads, an important measure considering that this particular trike is capable of handling a total weight of 100 kg which can include up to four young children. The trike can also be used in conjunction with a rear rack that can add another 25 kg of payload.
Riders can make use of pedal assist of up to 25 km/h, while the Bosch battery allows up to 64 km of riding on a full charge.
Available for around $5,900, the 'Stride 3' is a fine example of how family transportation needs can increasingly be taken care of by electric bikes and trikes.
