This study addresses the need for a comprehensive systematic literature review on electric cargo bikes (ECBs), focusing on research published since 2020 to account for recent advancements. Given ECBs’ potential to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and alleviate urban congestion, their integration in both commercial and personal transportation holds significant promise. ECBs serve as an efficient intermediary between traditional cargo bikes and motor vehicles, offering increased load capacity and extended travel ranges. Our methodology involves systematically searching major scientific databases, including Google Scholar and Scopus, with keywords “Electric Cargo Bikes” and “ECBs”. The present survey study explores the potential role of ECBs, highlighting their practical advantages. Findings from this review contribute to understanding ECBs’ potential and pave the way for future research in sustainable transport solutions. Critical research gaps that require more attention from communities in the following years are discussed in detail as well.

摘要

This study addresses the need for a comprehensive systematic literature review on electric cargo bikes (ECBs), focusing on research published since 2020 to account for recent advancements. Given ECBs’ potential to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and alleviate urban congestion, their integration in both commercial and personal transportation holds significant promise. ECBs serve as an efficient intermediary between traditional cargo bikes and motor vehicles, offering increased load capacity and extended travel ranges. Our methodology involves systematically searching major scientific databases, including Google Scholar and Scopus, with keywords “Electric Cargo Bikes” and “ECBs”. The present survey study explores the potential role of ECBs, highlighting their practical advantages. Findings from this review contribute to understanding ECBs’ potential and pave the way for future research in sustainable transport solutions. Critical research gaps that require more attention from communities in the following years are discussed in detail as well.
