Urban Arrow's 'The Tender' three-wheel delivery trikes offer a convenient way to get around the city without needing to operate a large-scale vehicle.
Currently, The Tender is being tested by a Dutch supermarket chain called Albert Heijn, which is testing five of the delivery cargo trikes across Amsterdam. The shape of The Tender gives it more bulk than a bicycle, which is useful for hauling heavy loads, yet it takes up smaller space than a conventional delivery truck. The system also boasts an electric motor, which makes it easier for cargo operators to get around, and offers a more sustainable method of transporting goods.
Over the years, Urban Arrow has released several variations of its electric cargo trikes, but it is now focusing its efforts on catering to the delivery market and offering solutions for smart urban mobility.
