Cargo E-Bikes in New York City

I can’t contain my love for the new little electric vehicles that have been appearing around New York City over the past couple of years.

They remind of tuk-tuks. Only instead of carrying cheerful tourists, they help deliver millions of packages every single day.

What’s especially interesting is that many of them are hybrids: they run on pedals but have electric assist, similar to the systems used on rental e-bikes.

And these small vehicles look like robot prototypes from a futuristic movie that somehow escaped a Hollywood studio lot. In short, every time I see one, it makes me smile.
