A pedal-drivable and electrically-drivable vehicle comprises a chassis 12, wheels, a pedal mechanism, an electric motor. The chassis 12 includes a back chassis-portion 30 having a trailing part 38 extending in a first plane (Pl, figure 2) and a leading part 36 and an intermediate chassis-portion 32 extending in a second plane (P2, figure 2) which is offset from the first plane P1 . The trailing part 38 and the intermediate chassis portion 32 are interconnected by the leading part 36 which tapers with at least one compound bend 48a from the trailing part 38 to the intermediate chassis-portion 32 so as to provide integrated suspension between a wheel and the intermediate chassis-portion 32. The intermediate chassis-portion 32 may comprise parallel elements 54 which may be linked together at locations 56 chosen to give a desired level of rigidity to the chassis 12.
