CAKE ÖSA
The Ösa looks like something you’d make with Meccano, and
that’s the idea: it’s a modular platform you can get in all kinds of
configurations including a two-seater, a delivery bike and one for
tradespeople that charges their tools. It can do up to 57 city miles at
up to 28mph and it’s on sale now from €8,500 (£7,250).

The Arc One has been described as the Tesla of boats, largely
because it has the same angular design language as the, ahem,
distinctive Tesla Cybertruck. Built by ex-rocket engineers, the
$300,000, 24-foot Arc One has a whisper-quiet, 475hp electric
motor that’s good for up to 35mph and five hours of normal use.

You’re going to see this on all kinds of e-bikes in 2022. Bosch’s
Smart System is based around the Performance Line CX drive unit
and introduces a new controller, a new head unit, a new app and
best of all, a new battery that promises to outperform Bosch’s
current best battery. That one has a range of over 130 miles.
