The modular Pelican eTrain is unlike any other cargo bike system we've seen, combining a capable e-cargo bike with one or two powered trailers for up to 1,100 lb or 3,000 L of cargo. It shoulders loads around the city like a small panel van.

The Pi-Pop ebike doesn't look like a hotbed of innovation at first glance, but it is. The bike houses a unique electric-assist system that trades out the battery pack mandatory on other ebikes in favor of a more active supercap-boosted system.

Yamaha has tapped into the spirit of its low-power combustion-engine scooters for the funky design of a pair of U-framed urban electric rides called the Booster Easy ebike and Booster S-pedelec electric moped.
