SixThreeZero is expanding its group-hauling e-bike lineup with the 'Long Range Luxury Rickshaw,' a three-wheeled cycle that can grow from a rider-plus-two layout into a seven-person setup by adding rear sub-frames. That lets one rider move a small crew or swap in cargo modules without stepping up to a separate vehicle.
The standout feature is the battery pack: 7,296 Wh, enough for a claimed 120 miles before recharging. With powered trailer options that bring their own motor and battery, the stretched layout looks less like a typical e-bike and more like a pedal-assisted shuttle.
Starting at $7,495, with each add-on sub-frame priced at $999, the rickshaw turns extra seating into a modular add-on rather than forcing owners to replace the base trike. That same platform can also accept cargo baskets, so the vehicle can shift between people-moving and hauling without replacing the base trike.

Key Themes Behind This Trend
- Modular Micro-mobility
- Expandable seating and cargo frames create new potential for compact vehicles that adapt to passenger, delivery, and service needs without full fleet replacement.
- High-capacity E-bike Batteries
- Large-format battery systems are pushing pedal-assist vehicles into longer-range shuttle territory, narrowing the gap between bicycles and small electric transport.
- Pedal-assisted Group Transit
- Human-electric hybrid shuttles introduce a lighter, lower-cost mobility format for campuses, tourism zones, resorts, and dense urban districts.
Where This Applies
- Electric Mobility
- Modular electric trikes signal room for new vehicle categories that sit between e-bikes, golf carts, and neighborhood electric vehicles.
- Urban Transportation
- Flexible multi-passenger micro-shuttles can reshape short-distance movement where congestion, emissions rules, and parking limits restrict conventional vehicles.
- Last-mile Delivery
- Convertible cargo-and-passenger platforms offer delivery operators a more adaptable asset for shifting between goods movement and localized transport services.
