There’s never been a better time to ride a weird bike. That’s especially true if you live in a city where you can regularly see kids being dropped off at schools from cargo bikes with buckets, child seats, and full rain covers. Further out from the urban core, fat-tire e-bikes share space on trails with three-wheelers, retro-style cruisers, and slick roadies. And folding bikes, once an obscurity, are showing up in more places, especially as they’ve gone electric.

The original 212 was introduced in the early 1960s and this new one retains a similarly boxy and rugged design The new-age BAW 212 will be sold exclusively with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. BAW has unveiled the off-roader in standard guise and a Special Edition version. The SUV features locking differentials and a sway bar that can be disconnected, just like a Jeep Wrangler.

The Tesla Cybertruck is unlike most trucks that have come before it, and thus it has attracted a new set of buyers who wouldn’t normally drive a big pickup.
