Just shy of five grand, by the way.
It's not ridiculous, but still a bit pricey

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

That's right in line with the prices for bakfietsen (which are themselves crazy).
5k€ for an electric cargo bike is in line with other options on the market.
Half of that is probably the 2.5kwhr battery, seems like 1kwhr would be a more reasonable range, 180km seems more than needed for most people.
That's called a tandem bike.
No, it is not
"German mobility startup Dolas eBike has unveiled a modern utility take on a tandem bike"
"such things as a second seat, static handlebar, rear rack, baskets and so on can be mounted to the long rail up top"
On one hand, yes, two riders can be in-line -- but by that logic, all long-tail cargo bikes could be "tandems" and that just doesn't feel right.
I'd say it's not really a tandem unless the stoker can stoke (i.e., it's got a second functioning crank).
It’s the second rider that makes it a tandem bike though, not a third wheel.
long rail up top
something this large should have hardpoints.
It's a tandem of sorts I guess...
