Cargo Bikes Take Center Stage at EUROBIKE's Future of Urban Freight

Industry, policy, and association experts will gather to discuss the future of cargo bikes at the VISION mobility THINK TANK. The event, part of EUROBIKE, will explore their role in sustainable urban freight transport. It will be moderated by Johannes Reichel, deputy editor-in-chief of VISION mobility. Cargo bikes are gaining attention for their agility, low emissions, and reliability in city logistics. They require minimal space and offer fast, dependable deliveries, especially when combined with decentralised micro-depots. Modern e-cargo bikes also enable efficient and cost-effective operations in urban areas.

At the event, Laurin Neusch, head of the German Bicycle Logistics Association, will represent the association’s perspective. Stefan Räth, global sales director at Mubea, will speak for manufacturers. Heiko Nickel, head of strategic transport planning in Frankfurt am Main, will provide insights from a municipal standpoint.

The discussions will focus on the real opportunities, limitations, and potential for widespread adoption of cargo bikes. Commercial models are increasingly viewed as a key solution for greener urban freight transport. The VISION mobility THINK TANK will bring together diverse voices to assess cargo bikes’ practical potential. The talks aim to clarify how these vehicles can contribute to more sustainable city logistics. The event forms part of broader efforts to promote low-emission transport solutions.
