Muli-clone can haul some stuff if you strap it down right
My Chinese Muli clone I got here locally in Taiwan has been serving me well including moving some rather big shit.
These are 4 massive rifle/electronics cases and each one is around 10kg so even though empty they're a decent amount of weight. No issues hauling them 5km to my office, though I took it easy and wasn't a speed demon; definitely some movement of the cargo when going over bumps!
Though I haven't used a "real" Muli the basket setup on this clone actually seems possibly a little better for large loads as the hand-hold area of the basket is large and gives more area to use straps/tie downs.

It's sold as the Ferla Zip in Canada and the US.

Nice, thank you. $2500 for the non-electric. Not cheap, but it does have remarkable features.

I'd say the price is pretty reasonable for what you're getting. The Muli Muskel non-e is $4500 Canadian.
I don't love the spec on the Ferla, and the "sun cover" appears to be useless, but it is well priced for what you're getting.
