Analysis
The E-U4 Next is Cortina's well-known transport bike, built for family use and grocery runs: a Bosch Active Line mid-motor with a removable 500Wh battery (625Wh optional) gives assist up to 25 km/h and roughly 90km of range. The MIK mounting system front and rear makes it easy to attach a crate, child seat or panniers without extra tools.
The aluminium frame supports up to 120kg of load, with 7 gears and hydraulic Shimano disc brakes. A double kickstand keeps the bike stable while loading and unloading, and the battery slides easily out of the frame to charge.
