Utility vehicles

Californian e-mobility company Blix has followed the launch of its most capable and versatile ebike to date with a compact utility bike called the Dubbel that's designed to "move multiple passengers, cargo and pets – anywhere and anytime."

The return of small pickups is finally happening. The Ford Maverick enters alongside the Hyundai Santa Cruz to kick off the re-emerging compact car-based truck genre. Where the Santa Cruz aims towards fun, the Maverick steers towards being a truck.

This electric 2WD fat bike is built to tackle just about anything, with huge balloon tires at the front and rear. It can cross water in amphibious mode, and handle serious distances with a range extender and up to 40 liters of fuel in the wheels.

Hyundai teased the Santa Cruz a few years ago as a fast-paced, good-times-ready truck. While the concept was edgy and clearly unrealistic for the real world, it set the tone for this production version, which delivers on the promise of fun and style.

Hyundai has released digital sketches of the upcoming Santa Cruz pickup truck. The Sport Adventure Vehicle will combine SUV and pickup truck elements as a competitor to the Honda Ridgeline, and is slated to enter production later in 2021.

LA-based electric mobility company Canoo has pulled back the curtain on its third vehicle, now joining the likes of Tesla, Bollinger, Rivian and others to add an all-electric pickup truck to its vehicle fleet.

When people think of driving in winter weather, they don’t tend to think of Fiat. Yet the 500X has a lot of improvements for the 2020 model year that could change those notions. Snow, ice, and kids came together as we tested the car for ourselves.

Where Cake's first e-motorcycle was an off-roader, which was then modified for the streets, the Swedish bike maker's latest offering can serve as a mobile workbench, a rideable shopping cart, or even a live music platform on wheels.

With the success of its first diesel-electric snow groomer, the 600 E+ "Green Machine", launched in 2012, the team at PistenBully was inspired to work towards developing a 100-percent electric, zero-emission groomer, which has already proven itself in field testing.
