The vanRaam Thuja is more than just a stable three-wheeled e-bike: this bike also offers a practical transport solution thanks to its cargo unit. This lockable storage space between the front wheels makes every ride a carefree experience. Discover in this article what the possibilities are with the Thuja's cargo unit.
The cargo unit of the Thuja e-bike is cleverly positioned between the two front wheels. A great deal of attention has been paid to practical usability in the design, without compromising the bike’s manoeuvrability. The cargo unit fits perfectly between the two front wheels, without protruding beyond their width.
This position offers several advantages that make a difference in your daily use:
The cargo unit's platform features adjustable elastic straps, similar to bungee cords. This allows you to easily transport various types of luggage. You can carry up to 15 kg of luggage on the platform, which has a capacity of approximately 39 litres.
The click system makes it easy to open the platform, giving you direct access to the internal storage compartment.
The battery is housed in the internal storage compartment. There is also space for small everyday items, such as a cycle helmet. This compartment has a capacity of approximately 28 litres and can hold up to 15 kg (excluding the weight of the battery). The combined maximum load for the platform and internal storage compartment is 30 kg. By locking the internal storage compartment, your belongings are safely secured.

The Thuja offers various possibilities to customise the cargo unit to your own preferences. With different accessories, you can expand its functionality and optimally organise the unit for your daily use.
This modular approach ensures that your bike grows along with your changing needs. You can start with the basic version and add options later, or immediately choose a complete configuration that perfectly matches your situation.
The cargo basket is a basket that you place on the cargo unit. This allows you to not only put items inside the cargo space but also securely on top of it. The height from the platform to the top of the basket is 19.5 cm.
For extra protection against the elements, you can equip the cargo basket with a basket cover. The cover is easy to attach using a magnet and has a snug fit, ensuring it stays securely in place while cycling.
Would you like to bring your own crate, such as a shopping crate, on the Thuja? With the crate fixation, you can easily and securely attach your crate to the cargo unit. This ensures that your crate will not shift while cycling.

Our latest innovation, the Thuja, has been awarded the prestigious EuroBike Award 2025. The Thuja is a stable, stylish e-bike designed especially for active seniors. The Thuja combines the agility of a city bike with the comfort and stability of a tricycle.
Imagine an e-bike that is not only stylish and modern, but also truly meets your needs to keep cycling with complete peace of mind. That’s the Thuja – Van Raam’s latest bicycle. Even before its official launch, the Thuja has already been named the most innovative product of the year by professionals from the Dynamo Retail Group. They recognise what this bike has to offer: stability, comfort, and freedom, all without compromising on looks.
Do you doubt your balance on a bike? Do e-bikes, cargo bikes, and scooters around you make you feel insecure? Or do you react a little slower than you used to? With vanRaam’s models, cycling is always possible, because we focus on what is possible. This constantly leads to new ideas. Jolien Heeman, Director of Product Management: “If it hasn’t been invented yet, we’ll invent it ourselves.”
Cycling is like a vitamin for your body. Hopping on your bike a few times a week improves your fitness, strengthens your muscles, and helps you stay in shape. But did you know that cycling also makes your brain stronger? Every ride is medicine for your mind. It even lowers the risk of brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s. But how does that work exactly?
