velotaxi – CityCruiser I + II und Delivery Cruiser

Background

The »CityCruiser II« formally, technically and conceptually improves velotaxi’s prototype from the year 2000, which was also designed by gewerkdesign. This new generation of vehicles is characterized by a modular cabin and a flexible chassis, transforming the muscle-driven, freight tricycle into a sport-and-lifestyle device.

The velotaxi is made of polyethylene and becomes a delivery and shop vehicle when the back part of the cabin is replaced and the chassis is contracted. It is available as an e-bike and can be equipped with solar panels for charging the batteries.

In addition to the carriage’s practical advantages – providing advertising space – the velotaxi has become a sympathetic and popular icon in the city traffic of Berlin. Implementing an alternative concept of transportation, it is known all over the world as the very symbol of eco-friendly transportation.

Portfolio / Range of Services: participation in developing the concept, design and planning of the chassis, compilation of the 3d-data and preparation for the tool manufacturing, design of equipment and accessories
