In Europe, governments have made significant investments in developing efficient and affordable cargo bikes that are environmentally friendly, thereby decreasing regional carbon emissions. Several measures, such as a tax break on cargo bike purchases, have been implemented in the region to increase consumer demand and promote the growth of the cargo bike market.
Although North America is a bit behind in focusing on promoting the growth of this market, things are happening, especially at the city level where more and more bucket bikes, long tails and other cargo bicycles can be seen on the streets as delivery vehicles as well as legitimate second vehicles for families.
