The lure of the profitable van market has burned once high-flying start-ups like Arrival, but the chance to disrupt the old guard by means of electrification is still pulling in new players, who are eyeing up the 'last-mile' market in particular.

Electric cargo bikes have downsides in that they need pedals to qualify as electrically assisted pedal cycles and riders actually have to use those pedals to unlock electric assistance up to a maximum speed of 15.5mph.

The UK government is currently consulting on whether to overhaul what many feel to be outdated EAPC legislation.
