The LEVA-EU member’s low-step e-bike, the Suelo, has won one of the bicycle industry’s most prestigious awards.
The Dutch brand was recently presented with the Eurobike Gold Award in the E-Bikes category. Judges praised the outstanding work of its product development team whose craftmanship, creativity and perseverance played a significant part in the groundbreaking design of the Suelo.
Established thirty-five years ago, the company began its mission of giving people back their freedom with mobility, which it still strives towards achieving by bringing a smile to every user of its customised models.
The Suelo is the first Nijland bicycle which marks a new design direction for the company, a platform which it will continue to build on in the coming years as it aims to grow by helping even more people. Nijland has stated that the Eurobike award has given it more confidence to continue in this direction with full conviction.
The Eurobike Award jury published the following statement about it awarding the Gold award for the E-bike category to Nijland’s Suelo:
“The jury grants a Eurobike Award to the “Suelo” low-step Bike by Nijland Cycling. Made for people with a balance handicap it is all about safety and comfort and a very low step-through. While the design is rather functional all members of the jury are delighted with how nicely and casually it feels to ride the Suelo. Being able to put both feet on the ground at any time provides a great feeling of control, especially at low speed, the judges unanimously point out. It was obvious how experienced Nijland Cycling is with products that grant mobility for people with disabilities. “We will need a lot of those bikes in the future”, one judge says.”
The LEVA-EU member’s low-entry e-bike, Suelo, has been nominated in the E-Bikes category for one of the industry’s most prestigious awards, which recognises outstanding mobility innovations. Nijland will also be exhibiting its latest offering of cutting-edge specialised and adaptive bicycles at the Dutch Pavilion during the show.
The Dutch custom bicycle manufacturer has published the following statement about the achievement on its LinkedIn page
“Reaching the final round of one of the cycling industry’s most prestigious innovation awards is a recognition that means a great deal to our entire team. The Suelo was developed with one clear ambition: to make cycling accessible, safe and confidence-inspiring for everyone. With an exceptionally low step-through height of just 16 cm, a fully adjustable mid-drive motor and complete Dutch production in Heeten, the Suelo represents a genuine step forward in accessible mobility.”
Nijland looks forward to the EUROBIKE Award ceremony on June 24, and will be exhibiting at the Dutch Cycling Pavilion at the show from 24-27 June at Hall 11.0, Booth D30.
LEVA-EU member Nijland, the manufacturer of adaptive bicycles and tricycles, has revealed that as of May 18th, its popular Singly Air model will feature significant new upgrades, including a new MIK luggage solution and a more powerful battery to enable further travel and provide greater convenience.
Going forward, all Singly Air models will feature various improved features as standard, which have been implemented by Nijland in response to customer feedback.
The rear basket has now been replaced with a modern rear luggage carrier which features the universal MIK system, allowing for riders to easily and securely click various compatible bags and baskets to the bike.
A 15Ah / 530Wh battery now comes as standard, which is larger than the previous standard and optional battery choices.
The charging point has been repositioned to a higher, more comfortable height of 57cm from the ground, allowing users to connect the charger without having to bend far down.
Nijland has also announced that they are switching to new batteries and chargers for the entire range, which are compliant with the most recent EN 50604-1 safety standard.
Prices and delivery times on the Singly Air have not been increased by the upgrades. Nijland has emphasised that the new luggage solution is specifically designed for its latest production series and cannot be retrofitted to existing Singly models with the basket configuration.
The LEVA-EU member has been participating in three-wheeled bicycle testing events across the Netherlands, organised by Fietsersbond. The Tricycle Discovery days give the opportunity for people to experience Nijland tricycles and get expert advice, to help evaluate how their lifestyles can be empowered with practical, safe and enjoyable riding experiences.
Dutch company, Nijland, has been innovating specialised bicycles for a range of rider scenarios for many years. Its tricycles provide extra stability and comfort to build confidence among riders of varying ages.
The brand’s participation at Fietserbond events offers attendees the opportunity to discover which tricycle best suits their needs with free testing and expert advice from the Nijland team.
It recently reported its latest event in the Diekmanhal in Enschede as a great success, and will be participating at numerous events around the Netherlands until October.
The list of its participation days, as well as dates attended by Nijland’s dealer Winon, are listed on its website.
The LEVA-EU member has been selected as one of three finalists for the prestigious NU Region Zwolle 2025 SME Award, which recognises the social and sustainable contributions of businesses in the Dutch city of Zwolle.
This recognition marks a significant achievement for the Dutch bicycle manufacturer, as a reflection of its long-standing commitment to innovation and social responsibility in developing smart, sustainable, and custom-made mobility solutions for users with limited mobility, for over 35 years.
The winner of the NU Region Zwolle 2025 award is scheduled to be announced on 21 November 2025.
Comments Off on Cargo Cycling introduces the new Chariot FS2 at the International CargoBike Festival (ICBF) / Fully Charged Live Europe
Reputable Dutch cargo bike brand, Cargo Cycling, unveiled its latest heavy-duty cargo trike, the Chariot FS2 on November 24th at the International Cargo Bike Festival in the Rai in Amsterdam. With this ground-breaking release, Cargo Cycling establishes a new industry standard for large-volume ecargo trikes.
Driven by Data and Innovation
Drawing on years of field experience and leveraging data collected from IoT devices and sensors, the Chariot FS2 is a product of data-driven innovation. This meticulous approach ensures that the Chariot FS2 exceeds the expectations for heavy B2B use.
Engineered to effortlessly handle substantial volumes (up to 1700 L) and weights (up to 200 kg payload), the Chariot FS2 rides as smoothly as a standard two-wheel e-bike. How? The Chariot has a unique tilting mechanism that optimizes steering, corner stability, and user-friendliness. Specifically designed for low maintenance and maximum uptime, the Chariot FS2 excels in high-intensity city logistics.
Unmatched Performance
The Chariot FS2 offers a superior driving experience by combining the distinctive tilting system with two cargo power motors in the rear. Add front fork suspension and independent rear wheel suspension to its low and flexible centre of gravity, and the Chariot FS2 delivers unmatched smooth cornering without the risk of tipping over.
Simplified Maintenance, attractive TCO
The smart design of the Chariot FS2 including the application of the Mando chainless e-pedal generator reduces complexity and simplifies maintenance. The integration of in-house designed components and heavy-duty parts from the motorbike industry minimizes wear and tear. In the FS2, critical parts are easily accessible for repairs, ensuring quick and hassle-free servicing.
The IoT module not only connects the Chariot FS2 to an online platform for fleet management and service and maintenance, it also provides data that helps enhance driver safety as well as reduce vehicle downtime. All contributing to an attractive total cost of ownership (TCO).
Tailor-Made Modular Cargo Box Solutions
The Chariot FS2’s rear frame features a modular design, accommodating various cargo box solutions of up to 1.7m² and supporting a payload of up to 200 kg specified to meet customers’ needs. Having the full production process in-house allows for customization options for frame colour and cargo box solutions to meet specific needs.
Quotes by some by the industry leading partners that have supported the development of th Chariot FS2:
The Chariot FS2, a new generation eCargo trike, impressed me with its dynamic performance and spacious cargo area. It incorporates essential safety features and, when paired with the Mando SPM Pedalrite system, eliminates chain-related components for reduced operational costs and maintenance expenses. With these remarkable features, I believe the Chariot FS2 will establish a new benchmark in the eCargo market.
Jeff Chang, General Manager of Mando Corporation Europe GmbH
As usual, Cargo Cycling has managed to inspire the industry with its disruptive ideas. The Chariot FS2 is one of the most innovative vehicles on the market. We, the AES AKku Energie Systeme GmbHh, are very proud to supply this fantastic vehicle with energy.
Matthias, Behlke, Managing Partner ofAES AKku Energie Systeme GmbHh
The new Chariot FS2 is the result of extensive real-world experience and data analysis. We take pride in supporting Cargo Cycling by gathering IoT usage data, feedback and maintenance insights. We firmly believe that the innovative Chariot FS2 offers an incredibly attractive overall cost of ownership.
