Powerful, Comfortable, Versatile, Long-Range, Safe
Imagine a city beast that transforms into a wilderness explorer at the flick of your wrist. The Addmotor Grandtan X e-trike isn’t just another ride; it's a declaration of independence on three wheels. With its full-suspension setup, this machine glides over city potholes and forest trails alike, thanks to its dual shock absorption system that laughs in the face of bumps and vibrations.
This electric trike isn’t about settling for the bare minimum. Most e-trikes cap their assistance at a pedestrian 14/15 mph, but the Grandtan X shatters expectations with a 750-W rear-mounted motor that peaks at a heart-thumping 1,400 watts. You’ll feel the power as it churns out 90 Nm of torque, pushing you up to 20 mph across seven levels of pedal-assist. And for those days when pedaling feels like too much effort, the half-twist throttle will carry you forward effortlessly.
Powering this beast is a 960-Wh Li-ion battery pack, certified to the UL 2271 safety standards, giving you peace of mind and up to 85 miles on a single charge if you play your cards right. And with a Shimano Tourney 7-speed derailleur, the ride isn’t just powerful—it’s versatile. The rear differential ensures the wheels adapt smoothly to different terrains, reducing slippage and making every turn feel like a gentle breeze.
Built on a sturdy 6061 alloy frame, the Grandtan X features a low-step wooden footrest that makes hopping on and off a breeze. Its fat tires—a 24-inch up front and two 20-inch at the back—provide a stable and cushioned ride. Stopping is handled by Tektro mechanical disc brakes, complete with a motor cutoff and a 180-mm rotor on each wheel. And that new parking brake system? It locks the wheels in place, so parking on an incline won’t turn into a nightmare.
Comfort hasn’t been forgotten either. A padded seat with a backrest, a backlit display showing key ride data, and a USB port to keep your gadgets charged ensure that even long journeys are enjoyable. When night falls, a headlight paired with a 5-in-1 tail-light keeps you visible and safe, with turn signaling and braking alerts.
Carrying capacity is another win. With a payload of up to 450 lbs, you can load up the front basket, use the waterproof storage bag, or even hook up a trailer to the reinforced rear tube for those larger hauls. And at $3,299 for pre-orders, you’re getting a lot of trike for your money.
The Grandtan X is not just an electric trike; it’s your ticket to adventure. Whether you’re cruising through the city streets or exploring off-road trails, this e-trike makes every journey a pleasure. It's about riding with confidence, comfort, and a sense of freedom that’s hard to find in our everyday lives. So gear up, hit the throttle, and let the Grandtan X take you where you’ve always wanted to go.
