SPACE-SAVING FOLDING DESIGN
The Platypus Foldable E-Trike is built with a practical folding aluminium frame, making transport and storage simple and stress-free.
The 6061 aluminium alloy frame folds at the centre, while the folding handlebar and stem further reduce overall size. This makes the Platypus easy to load into a vehicle, store in a garage, or keep neatly at home when not in use.
Designed for everyday convenience without compromising strength.
EFFORTLESS CONTROL WITH HALF-TWIST THROTTLE
The Platypus Foldable E-Trike features a half-twist throttle for smooth and intuitive control.Throttle-assisted start-up is available up to 6 km/h, making take-offs easier and more stable.
The throttle can be unlocked for off-road riding or private property use, offering added flexibility for adventure and recreational use.
Secure Braking & Parking Control
Safety comes standard on the Platypus.
The trike is equipped with a three-wheel hydraulic disc braking system, delivering strong and consistent stopping power across all wheels. The integrated parking brake allows the trike to remain firmly in place when stopped, parked on slopes, or loading cargo.
Stable, predictable braking you can rely on every day.
Smooth & Stable Turning Control
The Platypus is designed to feel balanced and natural when turning.
Its rear differential system allows each rear wheel to rotate independently, helping the trike remain stable and smooth through corners. This design significantly improves comfort, control, and confidence — especially during low-speed turns or uneven surfaces.
Turning feels steady, controlled, and reassuring.
COMPACT YET POWERFUL BATTERY
Powering the Platypus is a 48V 15Ah lithium-ion battery, delivering reliable performance for daily riding.
The battery is securely mounted and easily removable, making charging at home or on the road simple and convenient. Designed for durability and everyday use, it provides consistent power you can trust.
FAT TYRE OPTIONS FOR EVERY TERRAIN
The Platypus Foldable E-Trike features a stable tyre setup designed for confidence and comfort.
With a 16 × 3.0" front tyre and 20 × 3.0" rear tyres, the trike offers excellent balance, traction, and ride stability across sealed roads, bike paths, and everyday urban conditions.
Comfortable handling with a reassuring, planted feel.
HEAVY-DUTY REAR CARGO CAPACITY
Built for real-world practicality, the Platypus features a reinforced rear cargo platform designed to carry everyday essentials.
Whether transporting groceries, gear, or accessories, the rear rack provides a stable and secure solution for daily errands and utility riding.
Strong, practical, and ready for everyday use.
CONQUER THE HILLS WITH CONFIDENCE
The Platypus is delivering strong and consistent torque for smooth hill climbing.
Combined with a Shimano 7-speed drivetrain, riders can easily adapt to changing terrain, whether cruising on flat paths or tackling steeper inclines with confidence and control.
Reliable performance, wherever the ride takes you.

Compact Yet Powerful
