Wombat Ultra G3

Wombat Ultra G3 Electric Cargo Bike The Pinnacle of the Wombat Range. Automatic Shifting. Maximum Capability. Effortless to Ride. Wombat’s Ultimate Cargo E-Bike The Wombat Ultra G3 sits right at the top of the Wombat range – and for good reason. It combines huge cargo capacity, an incredibly stable mixed-wheel design, powerful Bafang M430 mid-drive motor, premium cargo-specific components and, most importantly, the brilliant Enviolo AUTOMATiQ automatic shifting system. For me, this is my personal favourite in the Wombat range. The reason is simple: the Ultra takes a bike capable of carrying serious loads and makes it remarkably easy to ride. Instead of constantly thinking about which gear you should be in, the Enviolo AUTOMATiQ system can take care of the shifting for you. Set your preferred pedalling cadence and the bike continuously adjusts the gearing to help maintain it – whether you're accelerating away from the lights, climbing a hill or cruising along the flat. On a cargo bike, I think that's more than just a luxury feature. It allows you to concentrate more on riding the bike, your passengers, traffic and what's happening around you rather than worrying about changing gears. Wombat itself highlights this as a safety benefit of the automatic system. Add an extra-long rear deck capable of carrying up to three kids, a 200 kg maximum gross vehicle weight, 120 Nm of torque, cargo-specific suspension and powerful 4-piston brakes, and the Ultra G3 becomes an exceptional family transport solution. Key Highlights Enviolo AUTOMATiQ Automatic Shifting The standout feature of the Ultra. Choose how quickly you like to pedal and the system automatically adjusts the continuously variable gearing to maintain your preferred cadence. No More Thinking About Gears Starting, stopping, climbing and cruising become remarkably intuitive. This is particularly valuable on a loaded cargo bike where your attention is better spent concentrating on the road and your passengers. Bafang M430 Mid-Drive – Up to 120 Nm Serious torque with more than 400% support provides plenty of assistance when carrying kids, groceries or cargo – particularly when Adelaide starts getting hilly. 670Wh Battery A generous battery with LG cells and Smart BMS technology, with a claimed range of approximately 30–80 km* depending on riding conditions. Mullet Wheel Configuration – 24" Front / 20" Rear One of the smartest features of the Ultra. The larger front wheel provides a sporty, natural steering feel while the smaller rear wheel keeps passengers and cargo lower to the ground. Extra-Long Rear Deck – Carry Up to Three Kids The Ultra is designed for growing families and serious cargo carrying, with Wombat specifically designing the extended top deck to accommodate up to three children. 200 kg Maximum Gross Vehicle Weight Serious carrying capacity for families and heavy-duty users. RST Cargo-Specific Suspension Fork A heavy-duty 60mm suspension fork with adjustable damping helps improve comfort and control. Tektro Volans 4-Piston Hydraulic Brakes Powerful braking performance is especially important when you're carrying children or heavy cargo. Hydraulic Easy-Up Seatpost Makes changing saddle height quick and easy when different members of the family share the bike. MIK HD Compatible Compatible MIK HD child seats and accessories can fit directly without additional adapters. Integrated Smart Features Bafang colour display, Bluetooth app connectivity, USB-C charging and an integrated motion-sensing alarm system. Premium Integrated Lighting High-powered automatic Spanninga Axendo 60 front light and Pimento rear light with an automatic brake-light function. Why AUTOMATiQ Makes the Ultra So Special This is the feature that really separates the Ultra G3 from the rest of the Wombat range. Traditional gears require you to decide when to shift and which gear you need. The Enviolo CVT works differently, providing continuously variable, stepless gearing rather than a conventional set of individual gears. The Ultra then takes this a step further with Enviolo AUTOMATiQ. You choose your preferred pedalling cadence – essentially how quickly you like your legs to turn – and the system automatically adjusts the gearing to try to keep you there. Go uphill and it automatically makes the gearing easier. Pick up speed and it automatically adjusts again. Set It and Forget It For everyday family riding, this makes an enormous amount of sense. When you've got children sitting behind you, you're approaching an intersection and there are cars, pedestrians and other cyclists around, you've already got plenty to concentrate on. With the Ultra, you can simply pedal and ride. You're not looking for a shifter or thinking about whether you're in the right gear when you stop. The bike takes care of the gearing while you concentrate on steering, braking, traffic and your passengers. That's why I particularly like the Ultra. The automatic shifting doesn't just make it more premium – it makes a large cargo bike incredibly approachable and easy to ride. The Best of Both Wheel Sizes The Ultra G3 uses what Wombat describes as a mullet configuration – a full-size 24-inch front wheel combined with a smaller 20-inch rear wheel. It's a clever combination. The 24-inch front wheel helps give the Ultra the confident steering and rolling characteristics of a larger-wheel bike. At the rear, the 20-inch wheel allows the cargo deck, children and luggage to sit closer to the ground. That lower centre of gravity can make a huge difference when you're carrying passengers. Instead of having all that extra weight sitting high above the bike, it's positioned lower, helping the Ultra feel more planted and stable. It's a great example of why the Ultra has been designed as a cargo bike from the ground up. Configure Your Ultra Around Your Family The Ultra isn't just designed to carry a lot – it's designed to change as your family's needs change. With an extended rear deck capable of carrying up to three kids and Wombat's extensive range of accessories, you can configure the bike around younger children today and adapt it as they get older. Safety Rail Pack Ideal for Younger Passengers For families with younger children, the Safety Rail Pack creates a more enclosed passenger area on the rear of the bike. The Buddy safety rails provide surrounding handholds, while the wheel guards, footboards and bench cushions help transform the rear deck into a dedicated passenger space. Importantly, the pack also includes a front basket. Once you've got kids occupying the rear of the bike, having somewhere else for school bags, groceries and everyday gear becomes incredibly useful. Safety Rail Pack includes: Front basket Front carrier liner Cargo net Wheel guards Footboards Buddy safety rails Short bench cushion Long bench cushion For younger kids, this would be our starting point. Director's Pack A Great Next Step as Kids Grow The Director's Pack is designed for children who are becoming too large for full safety rails but where you still want the reassurance and comfort of additional support. The Director's Chair provides a fixed cushioned backrest with wraparound armrests and safety bumper rails, while the open front makes it much easier for bigger kids to climb on and off themselves. Combined with wheel guards, footboards, a hold-on bar and cushioned seating, it creates a comfortable middle ground between a fully enclosed rail setup and an open passenger seat. For many families, this could be the configuration they use for years. Passenger Pack Open & Practical for Older Kids As your children get older and more independent, the Passenger Pack provides a simpler, more open passenger configuration. Rather than surrounding them with safety rails, the setup provides comfortable seating, places to hold, proper foot support and wheel protection. It keeps the rear of the Ultra versatile while still providing a dedicated passenger setup – perfect for older kids who are capable of getting themselves on and off the bike.

The 24"/20" wheel combination gives you a great balance between natural handling and a low centre of gravity. The 120 Nm Bafang motor provides plenty of assistance, the 4-piston brakes give you the stopping power a proper cargo bike deserves, and the extended rear deck provides enormous flexibility. But it's the Enviolo AUTOMATiQ system that really wins me over. A premium cargo bike should make transporting your family easier – and that's exactly what this system does. Get on, select your assistance level and ride. The gearing quietly takes care of itself in the background. When you're carrying the people most important to you, being able to concentrate more on where you're going and what's happening around you is a feature I genuinely value. Why We Love the Ultra G3 for Adelaide The Ultra G3 could replace a surprising number of car trips for an Adelaide family. School drop-off in the morning, shopping during the day, picking the kids up in the afternoon and a ride down towards Brighton or Glenelg on the weekend – the same bike can handle all of it. The powerful mid-drive makes loaded riding and Adelaide's hills easier, while the low rear wheel helps keep passengers stable. Add the automatic Enviolo gearing and you have a cargo bike that is remarkably easy to jump on and ride, even if you've never owned a cargo bike before. For families wanting the pinnacle of the Wombat range, this is the one I'd be looking at. Available at Electric Bikes Superstore Adelaide Available at Electric Bikes Superstore, Brighton SA.
