Electric trikes
Three wheels, all the confidence.
Electric trikes trade two wheels for stability, load capacity, and confidence — a low step-through, a big basket, and balance you don't have to think about. These are the approachable, mostly Class 2 three-wheelers. Looking for enclosed, freeway-capable vehicles like the MiZN or Aptera? Those now live in our new Auto Cycle category.

Safety & licensing notes
Trikes feel rock-solid at a standstill, but three wheels handle differently from two: taking a corner too fast or off-camber can lift a wheel and tip the trike. Slow down for turns, brake in a straight line, and give yourself time to learn the handling before loading up the basket.
Most electric trikes here are Class 1–2 (pedal-assist or throttle, capped around 20 mph), so in most states they're treated like an e-bike and need no special license or registration. Rules vary, and local paths may have their own limits — confirm your state's e-bike laws before you ride.
We're not currently aware of safety-action notices against the specific models above; we'll flag any recalls here if that changes.
