Positive, an electrical cargo bike might be going to be a greater answer for practically something this little trucklet wants to hold.
However then once more, an e-bike can’t preserve your dry or stop you from tipping over at stops with out placing your ft down.
And so whereas it’d look a bit foolish, there simply could also be one thing to this cute little electrical field truck.

Technically the highest pace is listed as 30 km/h (18 mph). However I’m guessing that the little 1.1 kW (1.5 horsepower) motor isn’t going to get you as much as prime pace in a short time.
However then once more, this wasn’t constructed for cruising quick. It was made for hauling.
