Electric Trike Scooter

Despite the rather simple essence, which is a frame on three wheels, an autonomous engine and a control system, there are several types of electric tricycles.

It is customary to refer to the first three-wheeled electric scooter. At the same time , it is favorably distinguished from a conventional scooter:

no exhaust fumes and ear-jarring noise;
availability of a roomy trunk;
a comfortable armchair.
Due to its stability and convenience, it will especially appeal to the elderly. You no longer need to look for a place to lean the scooter after a trip or worry that it will fall off the running board. This electric scooter stands confidently and without outside help.

The second type is an electric tricycle, light and maneuverable, this unit has a roomy trunk and a large power reserve on one electric traction without using human muscular strength. Its advantage relative to the electric scooter is the presence of pedals, with which you can always get to the designated place, even if the battery charge is at zero. A tricycle can be equipped with a differential, that is, it can be driven on both rear wheels, which gives greater stability and controllability when cornering.

Another rather specific type of tricycle is a three-wheeled electric scooter with a seat, whose name speaks for itself, and which is also presented in our catalog.

Tricycle electric bicycles are a type of bicycle with an electric drive and two wheels mounted on the rear axle instead of one. This makes it possible to achieve a more stable design with a higher load capacity, which makes an electric bicycle with three wheels popular among adults, summer residents and suburban residents.

How to choose a tricycle electric bike?
Before you buy a tricycle, choose a model that suits your riding style. When choosing, pay attention to the following technical characteristics:

The power of the electric motor. It directly affects the driving characteristics (speed, acceleration, power, etc.). Usually three-wheeled electric bikes are equipped with a 500-700 Watt engine mounted on the front drive wheel. This allows you to develop an average speed (about 40 km / h), which is quite enough for a comfortable ride on village and park roads with uneven asphalt and small slides – there is always enough traction.
Load capacity. In our catalog you can find tricycles with a maximum load from 120 to 160 kg.
Battery capacity. A 10 Ah battery is enough to overcome 25-30 km on a single charge, if you drive only by electric drive. If you twist the pedals in the process, then the battery may be enough for 40-50 km. Also, some models have a regenerative braking system installed, which increases the range.
The size of the wheels. Large diameter wheels with wide tires will provide a smoother ride and high cross-country ability.
Availability of additional accessories. A 3-wheel electric bike can be equipped with front and rear LED lights, trunks and baskets for transporting goods, etc. All this adds comfort and functionality, but makes the purchase more expensive.

The main features of this type of equipment:
A cargo electric tricycle is the owner of one front guide wheel and two rear driving wheels. Large-diameter wheels and the versatility of tires contribute to good cross-country ability both on flat hard surfaces and on dirt roads.
The reinforced steel frame in combination with the dump truck type body allows you to load the transport to the eyeballs and transport a large volume of cargo. The load capacity of a particular model depends on its overall dimensions and weight (the manufacturer specifies these data in the specification). Basically, the market presents GET, capable of transporting from 300 to 1300 kg. Onboard cargo electric tricycles have folding side walls (sides) for more convenient loading and unloading, as well as to facilitate the transportation of oversized cargo.
A powerful shock absorption system allows you to operate vehicles on uneven rural roads.
Depending on the power of the electric motor installed on the model and the capacity of the battery, the vehicle can reach a maximum speed of 45 km/h and travel up to 80 km on a single charge.
With management, which does not require special skills and qualifications, any and even a novice driver can cope. The dashboard provides all the necessary information about speed, mileage and so on. Comfort and safety of movement is provided by a comfortable driver’s seat and access to all levers and controls.
Most models are additionally equipped with lighting equipment (low-beam and high-beam headlights, brake lights, turn signals), rear-view mirrors, alarm systems.

Each model has optimal characteristics for a particular user. The choice depends on the stated budget and on how often and under what conditions you are going to use the vehicle. The following points are equally important:

• A two-seat electric tricycle should be more powerful and more durable than the average modifications. And if the maximum load capacity of a conventional tricycle is 100-120 kg, then the load of a scooter designed for two should be up to 200 kg. The optimal engine option will be equipment of at least 500 watts. You should also pay attention to the battery capacity, which should correspond to the engine power. A vehicle with a productive engine and a capacious battery is characterized by greater mobility, maneuverability and convenience, which is important when transporting two passengers, and a long power reserve on a single charge.
• a double electric scooter should be comfortable, so when choosing a model, it is important to pay attention to the seats. They should be comfortable for the driver and passenger to sit and have (preferably) a backrest and armrests. The presence of a rear trunk on which you can lean on the road will be a plus if the passenger seat does not have a backrest. The comfort of riders also depends on the width of the platform, designed for two.

a 3-wheel electric scooter, which will be convenient for everyone to ride, ideally should have the following options and parameters:

• a productive electric motor and a high-quality battery with a good supply of capacity for long trips;
• three 8-10 inch tread wheels for a comfortable ride on uneven surfaces;
• high clearance (ground clearance) for country walks;
• durable shock-absorbing suspension;
• reliable brakes;
• swivel seat with height adjustment and reclining handles for a comfortable fit;
• clear informative dashboard;
• bright headlights, marker lights, reflectors for safe driving in the dark;
• luggage racks, rear-view mirrors, etc.
