The vision of Electric Assisted Vehicles (EAV) is to produce world-beating solutions to mobility and urban challenges, with the aim of benefiting the environment and people's quality of life.EAV's existing product lineup specifically targets urban commercial fleets - successfully addressing the "last mile" challenge for urban deliveries by using a design ethos to conceptually 'engineer down' from Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) rather than 'engineer up' from the bicycle. EAV has been able to develop the most ergonomic eCargo bike on the market, with approval from market partners to prove it.EAV have developed a strong pipeline of interest in their cargo bikes (50 EAV from DPD (£550k)); customer pipeline sales include Amazon, Royal Mail, Asda/Walmart, Postnord, Co-op, EDF energy, Toyota Kinto and Faxi resulting in opportunities worth in excess of £5m by 2021\. To capitalise, EAV are currently scaling up through an Innovate Loan, developing a production line to manufacture 100 units/month.This project is the EAVmove, a four-wheeled electric-assisted pedal-powered passenger vehicle capable of carrying up to 3 passengers (a Pedicab).Currently, no suitable zero-emissions alternative to Private Hire Vehicles (PHV) exists with regard to meeting urban environmental restrictions and PHV functional requirements (luggage capacity, passenger experience.Utilising the EAV ethos, the purpose of this project is to test the feasibility of expanding the current EAV product line into the passenger mobility market. EAVmove will be a zero-emission Taxi or PHV suitable for modern app-based ride-hailing services (E-hailing).EAV vehicles do not require dedicated fast-charge 3-phase networks, vastly reducing demand on the network over electric vehicles, can operate efficiently in congested urban environments by utilising cycle networks, and with greater flexibility/access to parking are able to get closer to destinations. They are environmentally friendly, with zero carbon emissions during transit, incredibly light on-road infrastructure wear, and much reduced particulate emissions, providing true ULEZ/ZEZ compatibility.Part-sharing with the existing EAV range will reduce work, accelerate development and minimise risk. This project will enable EAV to utilise its existing technology, experience and manufacturing capability to respond to an emerging market gap. Developing a true Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) that can meet the demands of passenger transport in today's urban mobility systems.Furthermore, EAVmove will support society's need to fast-track the introduction of zero-emission passenger transport into urban environments, promote healthier lifestyles, increase accessibility to cycle/zero-emission transport, and provide market options for an increasingly de-carbonised future.

电动辅助车辆（EAV）的愿景是为移动和城市挑战提供世界一流的解决方案，EAV现有的产品阵容专门针对城市商用车队-通过使用设计理念从轻型商用车（LCV）概念上“向下工程”，成功解决了城市交付的“最后一英里”挑战。而不是从自行车上“爬起来”。EAV已经能够开发出市场上最符合人体工程学的eCargo自行车，并得到市场合作伙伴的批准来证明这一点。EAV已经开发出了一个强大的货运自行车管道（50 EAV来自DPD（55万英镑））;客户管道销售包括亚马逊，皇家邮件，阿斯达/沃尔玛，Postnord，Co-op，EDF能源，丰田Kinto和Faxi，到2021年，这些机会的价值超过500万英镑。为了实现资本化，EAV目前正在通过创新贷款扩大规模，开发一条生产线，每月生产100辆。该项目是EAVmove，一种四轮电动辅助踏板式乘用车，最多可搭载3名乘客（一辆三轮车）。目前，没有合适的零排放替代私人租用车辆（PHV）在满足城市环境限制和PHV功能要求（行李容量，乘客体验）方面存在。利用EAV精神，该项目的目的是测试将现有EAV产品线扩展到乘客移动市场的可行性。EAVmove将是一款零排放出租车或PHV，适用于现代基于应用程序的乘车服务（E-hailing）。EAV车辆不需要专用的快速充电三相网络，大大降低了对电动汽车网络的需求，可以通过利用循环网络在拥挤的城市环境中有效运行，并且具有更大的灵活性/停车位，能够更接近目的地。它们是环保型的，在运输过程中零碳排放，道路基础设施磨损非常轻，颗粒物排放量大大减少，提供真正的ULEZ/ZEZ兼容性。与现有EAV系列共享部分将减少工作，加速开发并最大限度地降低风险。该项目将使EAV能够利用其现有的技术，经验和制造能力来应对新兴市场的差距。开发真正的零排放车辆（ZEV），满足当今城市交通系统的客运需求。此外，EAVmove将支持社会快速将零排放客运引入城市环境的需求，促进更健康的生活方式，增加循环/零排放交通的可达性，并为日益低碳的未来提供市场选择。
