Key Features to Look for When Browsing Electric Trikes for Sale
When you're looking for electric trikes for sale, understanding these key features will help you choose the perfect match.
- Motor Power: Motors range from 250W to 750W. A 250W motor is great for flat terrain and complies with most Australian regulations. For hills or heavy cargo, a 500W or 750W motor provides more torque.
- Battery Range: Ranges typically vary from 60 km to over 160 km per charge. Consider models with larger batteries, like our UL-certified 20Ah Samsung packs, for longer adventures.
- Payload Capacity: If you plan to carry cargo, check the maximum load. Some of our models support up to 225 kg, making them incredibly practical.
- Braking Systems: Mechanical disc brakes are easy to maintain, while hydraulic disc brakes offer superior stopping power with less hand effort, ideal for heavier loads. A parking brake is a must-have for stability when stopped.
- Frame Design: A "step-through" frame with a low top tube makes mounting and dismounting easy and safe for riders of all mobilities.
- Seat Comfort: Unlike narrow bike saddles, many trikes offer wide, comfortable seats with backrests, reducing strain on long rides.
- Wheel Size and Tyres: Smaller wheels can lower the step-over height, while larger wheels offer a smoother ride. Fat tyres (around 4 inches wide) provide excellent stability and comfort on varied terrain like gravel or sand.

Exploring the Different Types of E-Trikes
The world of electric trikes for sale is diverse. Here are the main types:
- Upright Trikes: The most common design, with one wheel in front and two in the back. They offer a familiar riding position and are great for cargo.
- Semi-recumbent Trikes: These feature a reclined seat for exceptional comfort, reducing strain on your back and joints. Their lower centre of gravity improves stability. Our Trident range is a prime example.
- Fat-tyre Trikes: Equipped with extra-wide tyres (4+ inches), these models offer superb stability and a cushioned ride on any terrain, from pavement to sand. Check out our Trojan Fat Tyre Electric Trike.
- Folding Trikes: Designed for portability, these are perfect for commuters, RV owners, or anyone with limited storage space.
- Cargo Trikes: Built to transport heavy loads, these feature large front boxes or rear platforms, ideal for commercial use or families.
- Tandem Trikes: Side-by-side models allow two people to ride together, perfect for companionship or assisting another rider.
- Tadpole Trikes: With two wheels in the front, these are known for high-speed stability and excellent cornering, often seen in performance recumbent models.
Each type offers a distinct riding experience, and we're here to help you explore them all to find your perfect match.
Safety and Maintenance Essentials
To ensure a safe and long-lasting experience with your e-trike, follow these essentials.
Riding and Safety:
- Technique: Steer a trike like a car by turning the handlebars; they don't lean into turns. Practice in a safe, open area first.
- Pre-Ride Checks: Always check your tyre pressure, brakes, and battery charge before you ride.
- Visibility: Wear a helmet and use lights and high-visibility clothing to ensure you're seen by others.
- Regulations: E-trikes in Australia are generally treated like e-bikes, with a 250W power limit for public road use. Always check your local state rules.
Maintenance:
- Battery Care: Avoid fully depleting the battery and store it indoors away from extreme temperatures to maximize its lifespan.
- Cleaning and Lubrication: Regularly clean your trike and lubricate the chain to ensure smooth operation and prevent rust.
- Professional Servicing: Our Brisbane workshop offers everything from basic check-ups to full services to keep your trike in peak condition. We offer packages starting from $100.
