Humans need to move, but it's becoming clearer that cars can be a problem rather than a solution. The Trike Family Hybrid 1500 offers a refreshing, practical and easy-to-ride alternative. An innovative design in its own right, it harnesses the power of Bosch's fourth-generation CX Line drive system with two 750Wh batteries for a total of 1500Wh. There's a Suntour Mobie34 suspension fork for a comfortable ride, even on rough city streets. We fitted powerful disc brakes – and a parking brake – to keep you safe in all weathers, and the stepless hub gear makes light work of any journey. The clever one-size-fits-most design uses a telescopic seatpost and an adjustable handlebar. At the rear, the versatile cargo box with built-in (but removeable) seats, safety harnesses and rain cover makes it a cinch to take along your kids, the shopping, the recycling... whatever you need. And the unique tilt mechanism, combined with the stability of three wheels, means it's as easy to manoeuvre as any normal hybrid bike. Who needs a car?

A CUBE design concept powered by Bosch, the Trike Family Hybrid 1500 will redefine your expectations of pedal-powered transport by combining bicycle-like handling with the stabilty and safety of three wheels. Fourth generation Bosch CX Line drive is powered by twin 750Wh batteries, for a total of 1500Wh – meaning extended range. The unique tilting mechanism de-couples the load at the rear from the bike at the front, giving a natural feel to cornering. At the rear, the lightweight and tough box is designed with a high back and sides to help protect your children. A built-in rain cover lifts on its own gas strut, and the versatile seating and safety harnesses can be quickly and easily stowed away if you want to carry a cargo load instead. There's even a storage compartment in the main frame, and the option to fit a front rack. Now... do you really need to take the car?
