The iTank scooter is intended for use in places where people don't want to use a car to get to, but could be too far to walk such as at a marina or on golf courses. The iTank can go up 15-degree inclines without slowing down, but isn't meant to be used for serious off-roading. The [three-wheeled scooter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-trike-design) can go up to 28 mph and has a range of about 62 miles. The iTank is powered by [lithium-ion batteries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/advanced-electric-scooters) that can be fully charged in about six hours. The iTank is great for [neighborhood cruising](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/envo-flex-etrike) and with its equal weight distribution, it is difficult to topple over. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 86% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Affordable Eco Friendly Transport:** The iTank is an affordable eco-friendly transport option and highlights an opportunity for businesses to develop similar solutions for urban commuters. - **Leisurely Cruise Vehicle:** The iTank highlights the trend of people seeking leisurely cruise vehicles that are eco-friendly and affordable, creating an opportunity for businesses to explore this segment. - **Stable Three-wheeled Vehicles:** The iTank demonstrates the trend of stable three-wheeled eco-friendly vehicles which could be ideal for senior citizens or individuals with mobility issues, creating an opportunity for businesses in the mobility industry. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Electric Vehicle Industry:** The lithium-ion battery-powered iTank showcases an opportunity for the Electric Vehicle industry to possess eco-friendly, low-cost, and efficient transport options. - **Leisure Vehicle Industry:** The iTank scooter displays an opportunity for the leisure vehicle industry to devise more eco-friendly and cost-effective leisure vehicles for recreational purposes. - **Golf Course Industry:** The iTank highlights the opportunity for the golf course industry to explore eco-friendly golf carts as a viable option for transportation on the range. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Three-Wheel Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xoto-founder-edition.md) - [Eco-Friendly Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-electric-scooter.md) - [All-Terrain Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allterrain-electric-scooter.md) - [SUV-Inspired Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/splach-titan.md) - [Hybridized Police Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/police-scooter.md) - [Triple-Wheeled Steel Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tltboard-gorilla.md) - [Hefty Urbanite Scooter Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taur-electric-scooter.md) - [Dual-Posture Electric Scooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hybrid-escooter.md) - [Motorcycle-Like E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tank-g100.md)
