As an alternative to cargo bikes, a German startup is offering delivery professionals electric trailers that can be attached directly to any bike. Tailored to the goods to be transported, they allow for so-called last-mile delivery without emitting CO2 into the air.

Nüwiel has developed a trailer that can be hooked up to any conventional or electric bicycle in just a few seconds. It can thus be used to replace regular (and polluting) delivery trucks, with no need to invest in a cargo bike.
