The Kona Electric Ute promises pleasant portage of people, produce and possessions
E-cargo bike aims to replace your car
Published:
Kona has brought back its e-cargo Electric Ute and it looks like a delightful way to carry around large quantities of stuff, people or produce.
- This Surly Big Draggler might just be the fastest cargo bike out there
- Even if you hate e-bikes you will want one after watching this
The Ute is a long-wheelbase cargo bike with a big old rack on the back and the ability to take all manner of luggage, including huge panniers which are supplied as standard.


The Ute is all about practicality. A centre stand should make parking easy while mudguards are an obvious spec choice for an everyday machine, as are the Busch & Müller front and rear lights.
Kona has launched the bike with a series of cheery images showing off its versatility, along with this this video:
Kona pitches the Ute as the bike that “makes cars obsolete” and for practical everyday activities, we can certainly see the appeal. Of course, unlike a car, you’re likely to want to park the Ute indoors, so its main demographic is presumably going to be people who have garages.
Kona Electric Ute pricing and availability
The Electric Ute will cost £3,699 in the UK. Pricing in other territories is to be confirmed, and availability is imminent.
