Electric Tricycle FAQs
What is an electric tricycle (e-trike)?
An electric tricycle (e-trike) is a three-wheeled bicycle powered by both pedalling and an electric motor. Compared with traditional two-wheel e-bikes, it offers greater stability, balance, and riding comfort, making it well suited for commuting or relaxed leisure riding.
Mokwheel e-trikes are designed to deliver smooth pedal assistance and extra stability, ensuring a safe, easy, and confidence-inspiring riding experience for users of all ages.
Who are Mokwheel electric tricycles best suited for?
Mokwheel electric tricycles are ideal for adults who need extra balance, older riders, or cyclists who regularly carry cargo or shopping. They provide a stable and secure platform for errands, daily commuting, and neighbourhood rides.
With a low step-through frame and a powerful motor, Mokwheel e-trikes are easy to mount and simple to control, allowing even first-time riders to ride with confidence.
How much weight can a Mokwheel electric tricycle carry?
Mokwheel electric tricycles are designed to carry both the rider and additional cargo, with a typical total load capacity of around 120–160 kg. Most models come equipped with a rear cargo rack or a front basket, making them practical for groceries, commuting essentials, or light luggage.
When choosing an e-trike, it’s important to ensure that the rated load capacity matches your body weight and everyday carrying needs, to maintain safe and stable handling.
For example, the Mokwheel Granite electric tricycle has a total load capacity of 350 lbs (159 kg). Its rear rack supports up to 220 lbs, while the front basket can carry up to 55 lbs, making it an excellent option for daily shopping, commuting, or light transport—without compromising stability or safety.
What key features should you look for when buying an electric tricycle?
When choosing an electric tricycle, focus on the following important aspects:
Frame and structure: A strong, durable frame with a low step-through design improves safety and makes getting on and off much easier.
Motor and battery: Make sure the motor power and battery range meet your daily commuting or cargo-carrying needs.
Load capacity: Check that the trike can safely support both the rider and the items you regularly carry.
Tyres and brakes: Wider or anti-slip tyres enhance stability, while hydraulic or mechanical disc brakes provide reliable stopping power.
Comfort and handling: Adjustable saddle height, intuitive controls, and suitable suspension all contribute to a more comfortable and confident ride.
By evaluating these factors, you can select an e-trike that best fits your lifestyle and riding requirements.
For example, the Mokwheel Granite features a foldable aluminium frame, 20″ × 3.0″ fat tyres, a 250W high-torque motor, and a 48V 15Ah battery, delivering a range of up to 90 km. Combined with its low step-through design and hydraulic disc brakes, it offers a stable, comfortable, and dependable ride—ideal for everyday commuting and light cargo transport.
What is the typical riding range of an electric tricycle?
Most high-quality electric tricycles offer a typical riding range of around 37–56 miles (60–90 km) on a full charge. The actual range depends on factors such as battery capacity, terrain, load weight, and riding mode.
For example, the Mokwheel Granite electric tricycle is equipped with a 48V 15Ah battery and can achieve a real-world range of up to 90 km, making it well suited for daily use, errands, and light commuting.
