looks more like a wheelbarrow than anything. probably really useful in some situations but the price is ridiculous.
There are a bunch of cargo bikes in this style, I think they're called bakfiets or something like that.
The style is usually called long john, since bakfiets is also a company and can be any style (though originally it was a tricycle).
And yes, there's several dozens of makers and countless variants in Europe alone.

(gold star here) (rainbows here) The More You Know
Have you ever ridden one? I'm curious to hear how linkage steering handles.
Oof, kind of hard to generalize, since they really come in so many styles. The most basic ones... well, like a cow. But you get used to it. Just don't expect to make a quick turn 😂
There's also a trend for much shorter ones with smaller wheels, those ride really nice and nimble but the small tyres make your pedal much more (which isn't that bad with an ebike), e.g. https://www.yoonitbikes.com/yoonit-electric
You really need to ride a few and see what's your preference.
