CityQ — Four-Wheel Electric Cargo Bikes for Urban Delivery
CityQ designs and builds four-wheel enclosed electric cargo bikes for inner-city logistics, last-mile delivery and urban service work. Based in London and Oslo, CityQ cargo bikes are legally classified as bicycles under EN15194 and EN17860 — meaning no ULEZ, no Congestion Charge, no road tax, no MOT and no driving licence required.
CityQ bikes park free at every delivery address, use cycle lanes past congested traffic, and carry up to 175kg in a sealed, lockable, weatherproof cargo box. The chainless drive-by-wire drivetrain eliminates mechanical failures from snapped chains. Swappable batteries charge from any standard wall socket — no charging infrastructure needed.
Operators running CityQ include DHL for inner-city delivery in London, JCDecaux across Paris with a 50% transport time cut, and Wolt in Oslo through Norwegian winters at minus ten degrees.
Annual running cost under £1,500 versus £30,000 or more for a comparable city van.

While CityQ may look and feel more like a car – CityQ is registered as a bike due to following:
The max speed is 25kmh, and you need to pedal to go beyond 6kmh. But pedal feeling is light and different from a traditional bike, due to our unique software-based drivetrain.
