Weather-Protected Electric Bicycles

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

CityQ Offers Storage, Doors, Rear Seating and More

— June 20, 2020 — Autos
The need for compact personal transportation solutions is especially high since people are looking for alternatives to crowded public transit—and for those who are not quite ready to commit to cycling, CityQ offers a convenient in-between option. CityQ is an electric bicycle with doors and full weather protection, as well as storage space and rear seats.

As cities are restricting car traffic in some places, people are looking for alternative means of getting around. With its Car-eBikes, CityQ is hoping to make city cycling a more comfortable experience for those who live in urban settings and are familiar with inclement weather. Thanks to its unique design, CityQ can be semi- or fully enclosed, offering more flexibility than a large vehicle and more comfort than a traditional bicycle.
