Electric Tricycle FAQs
What is an electric tricycle (E-Trike)?
An electric tricycle, or E-Trike, is a three-wheeled bike powered by both pedals and an electric motor.
It provides greater balance and comfort than a traditional two-wheel e-bike, making it ideal for commuting or leisure rides.
Mokwheel’s electric tricycles are designed for smooth pedal assist and extra stability, ensuring safe and easy rides for all ages.
Who is an electric tricycle suitable for?
Electric tricycles are perfect for adults seeking extra balance, seniors, or riders carrying heavy loads.
They provide a stable platform for shopping, daily commuting, or neighborhood rides.
Mokwheel’s e-trikes feature a low step-through frame and powerful motor, allowing easy access and confident control even for beginners.
How much weight/payload can an electric tricycle carry?
Electric tricycles can typically carry the rider plus additional cargo, with total payloads ranging from 265 to 400 lbs (120–180 kg).
Most models feature rear racks or front baskets suitable for groceries, commuting items, or light luggage.
When choosing a tricycle, make sure the rated payload matches your body weight and usual cargo to ensure safe and stable rides.
The Mokwheel Granite E-Trike specifically supports a total payload of 350 lbs (159 kg). Its rear rack can hold up to 220 lbs, and the front basket up to 55 lbs, making it ideal for daily shopping, commuting, or carrying light cargo, all while maintaining excellent stability and safety.
What are the main features to look for when buying an electric tricycle?
When selecting an electric tricycle, focus on these key features:
- Frame & Structure: A sturdy, durable frame with a low-step design enhances safety and makes mounting easier.
- Motor & Battery: Ensure the motor power and battery range meet your daily commuting or cargo transport needs.
- Payload Capacity: Confirm the tricycle can safely carry both the rider and typical cargo.
- Tires & Brakes: Wide or non-slip tires improve stability, while hydraulic or mechanical disc brakes provide reliable stopping power.
- Comfort & Handling: Adjustable seat height, user-friendly controls, and proper suspension improve ride comfort.
By evaluating these features, you can choose an electric tricycle that fits your needs.
For example, the Mokwheel Granite features a foldable aluminum-alloy frame, 20″×3.0″ fat tires, a 500W high-torque motor (860W peak), and a 48V 15Ah battery with a range of 45–55 miles (72–88 km). Combined with a low-step design and hydraulic disc brakes, it delivers a stable, comfortable, and reliable ride, perfect for daily commuting and light cargo transport.
Can an electric tricycle be ridden in rain or bad weather?
Most electric tricycles can be ridden in rain or light adverse weather, but safety precautions are important.
Avoid deep water, muddy, or slippery roads, reduce speed on wet surfaces, and allow extra stopping distance.
Keep brakes, tires, and electrical components dry and in good condition, and consider using waterproof covers for the battery or controller when necessary.
With proper precautions, you can maintain performance and ride safely in wet conditions.
The Mokwheel Granite is equipped with a sealed battery and internal wiring, 20″×3.0″ fat tires, and hydraulic disc brakes. These features provide grip and reliable braking even on slippery surfaces, ensuring a safe ride. After riding in wet conditions, it’s recommended to dry the brakes and tires and inspect electrical connections to prolong the trike’s lifespan.
Can electric tricycles be ridden on the road? Do they require a license?
In most areas, electric tricycles are classified as standard e-bikes.
You can ride them on public roads and bike lanes without a license, as long as the speed limit (around 25 km/h or 15.5 mph) is followed.
Always check your local laws before riding to ensure compliance.
What is the typical range of an electric tricycle?
Most high-performance e-trikes can travel between 37 and 56 miles (60–90 km) on a full charge.
The range depends on battery size, terrain, and riding mode.
For example, Mokwheel’s Granite E-Trike comes with a 48V 15Ah battery, offering up to 55 miles (88 km) of real-world riding distance.
Can electric tricycles handle sand or rough terrain?
Yes, most modern electric tricycles are built for versatile terrain.
The Mokwheel Granite e-trike features 20” x 3.0” fat tires, delivering traction on sand, gravel, or grass.
Combined with a 500W high-torque motor and stable three-wheel design, it provides smooth handling and confidence even on uneven surfaces.
