Eunorau Max Cargo electric bike review: Big motor, bigger potential as a cheap car replacement!

by Micah Toll

The Eunorau Cargo Max uses a similar setup to the Eunorau G20 e-cargo bike that we previously tested, but swaps in a more affordable direct drive motor instead of the pricier mid-drive.

Having put some good miles on the Eunorau Cargo Max recently, I’m ready to tell you exactly what I like (and don’t like) about this budget-friendly e-cargo bike.

Electric cargo bikes are one of my favorite niches in the e-bike industry because of their extreme utility.

While most e-bikes are for getting around or having fun, electric cargo bikes are for getting a week’s worth of groceries or helping a friend move.

Or if carrying passengers is more your thing, they can be used for taking the kids to school or cruising the city with your partner.

And the Eunorau Max Cargo electric bike is the latest heavy-hauling cargo bike I’ve tested that can perform all of these tasks and more.
