Having someone you love wanting to ride but unable to control the bike on their own should not mean they are left out. We have independent rider options, trikes for assisted rider and passenger bikes. An independent right might need a remote-control. An assisted rider can be helped with a rear steer, a side steering arm or by sharing the ride on a side-by-side. But if they can't pedal or won't pedal, how about a passenger bike option.

Not all ebikes and trikes handle in the same way. A hub-drive assists those with lower strength who find it more difficult to push hard on the pedals, especially on hills. A mid-drive torque system relied on good leg strength to be able to apply enough force through the pedals so tends to suit riders with more physicality or who want a more natural feeling to the power assistance. One is not better than another - it depends on your abilities and individual needs.
