The Lectric XP Trike2 is a three-wheeled electric cycle built on a hydroformed aluminum frame designed for enhanced stability and a low 13.8-inch standover height. Priced from USD 1,499 for the base model, it pairs a 500 W hub motor and a 13 Ah (624 Wh) battery to deliver up to 50 miles of range, while an upgraded 750 W motor with a 17.5 Ah (840 Wh) battery extends that to approximately 70 miles. Riders can choose among five pedal-assist modes—Eco, Tour, Sport, Sport+, and Turbo—via a detachable 3.5-inch TFT display, and throttle control provides additional propulsion. A front Cloud 50 suspension fork cushions impacts over rough surfaces, and hydraulic disc brakes with a parking-brake feature, integrated turn signals, head- and tail-lighting, and reflective tire sidewalls address safety and visibility requirements.
Beyond its core drivetrain, the XP Trike2 incorporates practical conveniences for diverse users. Its folding mechanism and low-step design facilitate transport and storage, while a 330-pound load capacity supports cargo or passenger accessories. The standard model employs a cadence sensor for assist responsiveness; the higher-spec version adds a torque sensor for a more natural power delivery in response to pedaling force. Lectric’s component choices—including smooth-tread tires, a 9° stem for an upright posture, and UL-certified battery systems—reflect a balance of comfort, reliability, and ease of use for riders seeking a stable electric-mobility solution.
