【Four-wheeled electric vehicle】Plenty of storage and long-distance travel! A “approximately 550,000 yen” mobility tool is perfect for local leisure activities

As alternative means of transportation to cars are gaining attention, the spotlight is on the license-free four-wheeled electric vehicle "Blaze E-Cargo" and the roofed three-wheeled electric bike "EV Delivery." Let's check the driving performance and load capacity that are of concern.

Support for local transportation: "Blaze e-Cargo"

First up for review is the four-wheeled electric vehicle "Blaze e-Cargo." It falls into the category of "specific small motorized bicycles," which do not require a driver's license for individuals over 16 years old, but it has a maximum speed of 20 km/h. It can also switch to a 6 km/h mode depending on conditions, presenting a viable option for the elderly who may find driving a car daunting yet seek a means for short-distance travel.

The main unit is equipped with a 500W motor and has a climbing ability that handles gradients of 17° or approximately 31%.

A standout feature is its cargo platform, measuring 785×500 mm. It can carry up to 30 kg, suitable for two shopping baskets worth of goods. The platform's ground height is set low at about 550 mm, making it easy to load and unload items. The battery is removable for charging, and with an optional battery, it allows for travel of up to approximately 100 km. This vehicle offers a practical solution for everyday shopping and transporting goods.

"EV Delivery" suitable for commercial use

EV Delivery is a three-wheeled electric bike available in two models: one registered as a moped and another as a mini-car. It employs a separate swing mechanism that divides the driver's seat and cargo platform, making it easier to suppress lateral swaying of the cargo during turns. It seems well-suited for transporting goods in narrow alleys and around facilities, where larger vehicles struggle to operate.

In the mini-car registration model, it can carry up to 90kg, making it easy to use for everyday deliveries and business purposes. It can be charged from a household outlet, with a range of about 100km. As it is a quiet electric vehicle, it ensures silence for deliveries in residential areas. Both roofless and roof-mounted types are available, allowing you to choose according to weather conditions and usage environment.
