Cannondale announces the Wonderwagen Neo and Cargowagen Neo electric cargo bikes

Cannondale has announced a pair of cargo bikes with some impressive performance specs. The Wonderwagen Neo and Cargowagen Neo electric cargo bikes are Cannondale’s first full-sized e-cargo bikes. The American company released the Compact Neo e-cargo bike back in 2022.

The two new Cannondale e-cargo bikes offer customers either a front-loading or rear-loading cargo bike. The Wonderwagen Neo is propped as the ultimate child-carrying cargo e-bike. It has a traditional bucket-style receptacle at the front for carrying cargo of different hues. Two seats are available within the cabin area to accommodate two kids up to 30kg each. The compartment also has five-point harnesses and headrests. An optional roof for the cargo receptacle completes the design of the platform.

The rear rack of the Wonderwagen can carry a 27kg payload (or an extra child). The total cargo-carrying capability of the Wonderwagen Neo is 250kg, which is impressive.

The Wonderwagen Neo is powered by a Bosch Cargo Line mid-drive motor with either a 545Wh or 725Wh battery. It is also possible to double up the battery pack for an extended range and versatility. The bike has a cable steering system for enhanced handling, an 80mm front suspension, and a dropper post for maintaining balance when the bike is stopped.

There are several accessories available in the bike including a rear-facing radar for enhanced safety from collisions. Two models – Wonderwagen Neo 1 and Wonderwagen Neo 2 are on offer based on differences in battery capacity and gear setup.

The Cannondale Cargowagen Neo has a large rear rack for cargo. It uses a similar drivetrain as the Wonderwagen Neo and the same battery options. The Cargowagen has a payload capacity (including the rider) of 200kg. It is possible to attach compatible kids’ seats at the rear of the e-cargo bike.

A front rack accessory is available for the Cargowagen, among other decent options. It features a front suspension and dropper post for stability when stopped. The batteries of the Cargowagen can also be doubled for added range. As with the Wonderwagen, two models are available for the Cargowagen Neo.

The Cannondale Wonderwagen Neo and Cargowagen Neo electric cargo bikes are available directly from the Cannondale website. The Wonderwagen Neo 1 and Wonderwagen Neo 2 are priced at £7,000 ($8,842) and £6,000 ($7,579) respectively.
