Three wheel motorcycles were originally developed to provide additional stability for those who don’t want to give up on the biking passion and switch to more conventional means of transportation. As years were passing, the engineering approaches towards producing three-wheeers were going through various changes and improvements. Today we can see such innovative features being added to this type of urban commuting vehicles:
– closed-over designs with roofs (similar to that of tiny Twizy car and some scooter models);
– battery-electric powertrains that made these vehicles more powerful, silent and suitable for use in zero emissions city zones;
– cambering wheel geometry that allows the trike to lean into corners with ease and at higher speeds compared to regular two-wheelers.
We regularly monitor the latest charges in the world of battery electric vehicles, the results of our research is gathered in this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeYSci69dx4lp9xBgbW-pLJ-1G-wphplS
In 2021, when the field of personal urban transportation vehicles is growing rapidly, it was only a matter of time for the tilting design to be introduced to ebikes, reverse trikes and 3-wheel scooters. This novel technology is here to make us have more fun maneuvering the city streets, while running errands, going to work or covering daily commutes.
In this video we have featured most of the already existing trike models, as well as EVs that manufacturers are hoping to bring in 2022. We showcased the most important tech specifications, estimated prices and other useful features that these transportation inventions have to offer.
