# Sleek Speedy Electric Trikes The All-Electric EpicEV Torq Trike Would Be Proudly Driven by Batman By Andrew Sztein | Published 2013-03-31 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-trikes References: [geekologie](http://geekologie.com/2013/03/zoom-zoom-three-wheeled-batmobile-lookin.php) & [torqev](http://torqev.com/) If you've ever wanted to be Batman, these electric trikes are just the vehicle for you; provided you can swallow the $65,000 price tag. The specs behind the Batman Tumbler-inspired design of the EpicEV Torq roadster are as impressive as they are daunting. The all-electric trikes can get up to 100 miles per charge and can also accelerate at a stomach-churning 0-60 MPH in only four seconds. Fortunately for Batman or any other prospective customers, the electric trikes are perfectly street legal. The website for the EpicEV probably sums up the vehicle perfectly; "Introducing the all-electric vehicle of the future, the street legal, track born TORQ [Roadster](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yamaha-tricera). This is the electric car re-invented." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 18% | Activity: 47% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Electric Trikes:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced battery technology to increase range and decrease charging time. - **Eco-friendly Vehicles:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create sustainable manufacturing processes and materials for electric vehicle production. - **High-speed Acceleration:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design lightweight yet powerful electric motors for improved acceleration capabilities. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Automotive:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop new infrastructure for electric vehicle charging stations. - **Alternative Energy:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore renewable energy sources for powering electric vehicles. - **Sports and Recreational Vehicles:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create futuristic designs and features for electric recreational vehicles. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Comfortable Electric Tricycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/two-front-wheel-electric.md) - [Slick Electric Tricycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-tricycles1.md) - [Supportive Three-Wheeled Electric Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xp-trike.md) - [Electric Three-Wheel Roadsters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/threewheel-roadster.md) - [Futuristic Electric Tricycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yamaha-tricera.md) - [Lightweight Electric Trike Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rad-power-bikes-radtrike.md) - [Powerful Performance E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/king-e-cheetah.md) - [Recumbent Electric Trikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recumbent-electric-trike.md) - [Tilting Electric Trikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tilting-electric-trikes.md)
