I like the look of that, but I couldn't handle the thought of being beaten up a hill by a mum lugging 3 kids on her bike, just because it's electric. Oh, the shame....

I think it looks cool - I don't think I'd use one myself, but it looks a pretty impressive bit of engineering. I'm too scared to go looking for a price tag though.

Web site doesn't give much away. Based in Aarhus which is very well bicycled,
The concept is clever as it's lighter than most load carriers. The carrier looks a bit small in comparison with others. Rear doesn't have a standard rack so you have to use the system shown. Suppose you could stick some extra stuff on child seat if it wasn't being used.
The rear mudguard looks a bit short. Chain is not on guard. These points though are shared with a Helios tandem so not always a 'deal breaker'.Reminds me a bit of the two wheeled adapter that Anth had - although better than that. Pelican look like a small company and will provide some extra choice for this market. Need to find out more - bound to be around £1500 at least and £2k+ with electric.
