- Experts say the Fetch+ 4 feels stable and planted at high and low speeds.
- Both riders and passengers enjoy the smooth ride quality.
- Reviewers appreciate the cable steering, which allows the front wheel to turn 85° for tight maneuvers.

10 reasons not to buy
- Weighing 165lb, the Fetch+ 4 is extremely heavy and difficult to maneuver while parked.
- The Fetch+ 4's 386lb payload capacity is below average for front-load cargo e-bikes.
- This bike doesn't have a display. Owners must use the Bosch app on their phone as a display.
- A 176lb reviewer gets just 28 miles of range using max assist. With 88lb of cargo, the same reviewer gets 24.9 miles.
- One reviewer finds the stem too high, and it isn't easily adjustable.
- An expert experiences wrist pain due to the narrow swept-back handlebar.
- Testers say lifting passengers or heavy cargo up and into the box can be strenuous.
- The Fetch+ 4's power button is positioned next to the PAS buttons, leading one tester to accidentally push it while riding.
- The cargo box is rated to carry four children, but a reviewer says it would have to be four small toddlers.
- The accessory selection for the Fetch+ 4's cargo box is below average for this type of cargo e-bike.
Bottom line
The Trek Fetch+ 4 is an electric cargo bike with a Bosch Performance Line Cargo motor and 724Wh battery. The cargo box fits four small kids (176lb capacity), and the MIK HD-compatible rear rack supports 59.5lb. However, the payload capacity of 386lb is low. Experts praise the comfortable ride quality, stable handling, sturdy kickstand, and stopping power. Additionally, they appreciate the dropper suspension seatpost and low-maintenance drivetrain. The bike's high weight, limited range, and lack of a display draw criticism. While experts consider Trek's Fetch+ 4 a great e-cargo bike, it has many shortcomings for this price point.
