This week on Electrek’s Wheel-E podcast, we discuss the most popular news stories from the world of electric bikes and other nontraditional electric vehicles. This time that includes a major upgrade from Lectric eBikes, new e-bike models from VanMoof and Yamaha, plus some interesting larger vehicles such as an RV built on a pedal tricycle, a scaled up RC car for adults, and a Chinese micro-car that woke up in the US.
The Wheel-E podcast returns every two weeks on Electrek’s YouTube channel, Facebook, Linkedin, and Twitter.
