Rungu, a California-based company that is renowned for its eye-catching and high-performance [electric fatbikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-giant-yukon-e), has launched a brand new [three-wheeled electric fatbike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kettwiesel-one-plus) that offers greater stability in addition to a boosted battery range and higher ground clearance.

The XR Rubicon Trail Edition electric fatbike is equipped with an [18-Ah lithium-ion battery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aventon-aventure-3) which translates to a significantly increased range of 30 percent compared to previous offerings which only offered 15-Ah. This effectively means that the fatbike is capable of taking advantage of up to 68 km of electric-assist, significantly opening up a wide range of opportunities and journey options for riders.

Priced in at $8,517, the Rungu XR Rubicon Trail Edition is a great option for fatbike enthusiasts who don't want to compromise on range possibilities.
