Product Details

🦛 HIPPO E-TRIKE

PROUDLY BUILT IN CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA.

The Hippo is no ordinary electric trike. Powered by dual motors—one in the rear and one in the front wheel—this is a super powerful electric three-wheel vehicle designed for both a rider's commute and for carrying goods or passengers. Unlike a normal e-trike, Hippo has a differential in its axle, making it easy to maneuver in all kinds of riding conditions.

Key Features

**Versatile Functions:** Use pedal assistance for exercise, or take advantage of its carrying capacity for transporting recycled goods, shopping deliveries, or tools for your gardening maintenance business.
**Power and Stability:** Dual motors provide power and stability on-road and off-road, allowing you to conquer any terrain with ease, including soft sand, beaches, dunes, jeep tracks, and on-road commutes.
**Superior Comfort:** A front suspension air shock absorbs shocks and ensures superior handling on rough terrains. The fat tires also absorb shock from bumpy terrain such as potholes, stones, and bumps.
**Safety First:** Equipped with left and right indicators, rear and front LED safety lights, a hand-brake, and powerful electric cut-off safety Hydraulic disc brakes. A parking brake function is also included.
**User-Friendly Design:** An extra-wide step-thru design makes it easier for people to get on and off, and a streamlined design features internally routed and protected wiring and an electric controller.
**Unmatched Maneuverability:** Navigate uneven terrain effortlessly thanks to a differential mechanism, providing smooth and stable handling to enhance control.
