Usage scenario: How to use this car?
Cargo bikes can be said to be born for "carrying goods". Cargo bicycles originated in the Netherlands in the early 20th century, and were first used for local delivery work such as newspapers, milk and bread. In European countries such as Denmark and the Netherlands, which are big bicycle countries, cargo bicycles are an important partner in the daily life of local people. In addition to "carrying goods", it has also developed the usage of "carrying children".

One of the main usage scenarios for cargo bikes is family travel. It is very friendly to families and children, and there are many accessories and sets specially designed for this purpose, which can meet the needs of traveling with babies and various supplies. Before the advent of cargo bikes, families with multiple children had limited options for short- and medium-distance travel: buying a car, or scrambling to take public transportation.
As kids (and some adults) love supermarket trolleys, humans can't resist the allure of this open-top, accelerating vehicle. Compared with sleeping in the back seat of a boring car, the way of driving like a convertible is naturally more popular with children.
Urban Culture: Alright, teach me how to play with this car
Having said all that, are cargo bikes limited to family travel scenarios? of course not.
As mentioned at the beginning, the earliest usage scenario of cargo bicycles was for commercial use to meet the needs of goods sales and distribution, such as delivering newspapers. Now, some people are also using cargo bikes to start their own small businesses, opening a "pop-up" bakery.
This business model of serving small areas, sales and delivery is not unfamiliar to us. In the vernacular - itinerant peddlers. Regardless of urban management, this kind of business needs can usually be realized by manpower tricycles in the country of wisdom in the East. Not thirty-eight thousand, not ten thousand, only five hundred and eight. Although the cargo bike has a better design and a higher load capacity, it is also more expensive.
