The Inga from Infinite Mobility Promises Free Charging via Solar Energy
Colin Smith — May 28, 2024The Inga is an innovative cargo bike designed to enhance daily urban mobility. Crafted from the ground up, it seamlessly combines functionality with a compact and agile design. Whether you’re commuting to the office, running errands, or meeting friends, the Inga Cargo Bike offers ample storage space while maintaining maneuverability. Its standout feature is the revolutionary Solar Box, which integrates high-efficiency solar cells directly into the bike’s body. By harnessing sunlight, the Inga provides an eco-friendly solution for powering your journeys. The cargo box, positioned at the front, accommodates both cargo and three solar panels, totaling 160W. With good sun exposure, the solar cells can contribute up to 50 km of additional range per day, making it a sustainable choice for urban logistics and daily transportation.
The Inga boasts a 100 Nm motor output and a top speed of 25 km/h. Its 60 km range (approximately 37 miles) is powered by a 36V 16.5Ah battery. However, the real game-changer lies in the semi-flexible solar panels integrated into the cargo box. These panels can provide an extra 50 km of range when exposed to sunlight. The cargo bike can handle a substantial payload of up to 250 kg (approximately 550 pounds). The removable box cover allows for versatile use scenarios. Infinite Mobility plans to ship prototypes to select bike shops in Europe for feedback, with production expected to start next month. While pricing and release date details are yet to be announced, the Inga represents a promising step toward sustainable urban mobility, combining practicality with renewable energy.
