Cannondale jumps full steam into the cargo ebike market with the new Cargowagen Neo and Wonderwagen Neo. Pick from a more compact long tail cargo ebike (not so dissimilar to Globe’s new Haul LT), or go all-in with a big box out front to haul more kids and bigger objects out front. Either way then, it looks like two more reasons for urban & suburban families to seriously consider adopting the #onelesscar concept..

Cannondale is fully embracing (small) two wheels and e-mobility as alternative transportation with their two new cargo ebikes. No matter where you stand on the ebikes on the road & trail debate, cargo ebikes are awesome – that is assuming you have somewhere to park these behemoths.

Both the new Cargowagen Neo & Wonderwagen Neo cargo ebikes start with heavy-duty SmartForm C2 alloy step-through frames, wide tires on burly 20″ wheels, and short-travel 80mm cargo forks to smooth out the road.

The Cargowagen opts for a long tail rear end with an extended structural rack to haul up to 80kg of groceries, gear, or a kid out back. Total load rating of 200kg/441lb including ebike, rider & anything you can strap on.

The Wonderwagen takes it to the other extreme, bolting a giant plastic box up front that can carry 100kg, plus another 27kg on the burly rack out back. It also uses cable-driven steering instead of a linkage to keep the cargo box and all that weight low. All-in, the Wonderwagen can haul 3 kids in addition to the driver/rider – with a max total load rating of 250kg/551lb (ebike, rider & load).

Powering it all, Cannondale gives these two e-cargo setups Bosch ebike motors to get ’em moving. In Europe, that’s the 25kph limited high-torque Bosch Cargo Line. On the other hand, in the US, it’s the high-speed 28mph-limited Bosch Performance Speed electric motor.

Both get powerful integrated lighting – check out the cool headlights on the Wonderwagen, full-coverage fenders, dropper seatposts, kickstands, a built-in glove box, and integrated locks. Plus, then there’s lots of other accessories to choose from, including optional dual-battery setups and even a trailer hitch. The rear racks are designed to clip on a traditional kids’ seat, a cargo cage, or pannier bags. The Cargowagen can even add an extra min front rack. And the Wonderwagen can opt for an extra integrated rain cover, too
