e-trike

Motorized three-wheeler bike

An e-trike is an electric tricycle—a three-wheeled vehicle powered by a battery and motor.

Most are designed for adults who want stability without balancing on two wheels, popular among older riders and for cargo hauling.

Some resemble recumbent bicycles with a third wheel; others look like enclosed scooters: She delivers groceries on her e-trike.
