I personally think it could be a great alternative to cars and bikes for those who need to take a whole family somewhere or a decent amount of stuff.
Only modifications I would make would be ride-by-wire and an extra set of pedals (so you can have two people pedalling without the annoyance of normal tandem bikes having to pedal at the same rate), and a more powerful motor (only 250W is legal in France, where this was designed, whereas 500W is legal here in Canada)

NGL its worse than other solutions to the same problem. We already have tandem bikes, group bikes with rooves. This one seems to have been designed without any of the wise solutions products have considered.

And this is not one of those. It's effectively an electric assisted trike with a solar charger for the battery.
