Electric Tricycle Can Transport Up to 350 kg of Cargo
The Yakbike is a tricycle developed with an electric motor focused on assisting those who need to carry heavy loads. The model uses an electric motor with a torque of just over 17 kgfm and promises to carry up to 350 kg of cargo in its rear.
The electric tricycle’s system uses one or two batteries, which when combined deliver up to 150 km of autonomy on a single charge. The rear can have various shapes, such as a pickup or include a roof to carry larger and more fragile products.

The electric tricycle adds an extra wheel, and the setup is focused on cargo transport, promising to assist in pedaling for those needing to carry a huge pallet, without much effort in their legs.
The ability to deliver force for pedaling with greater duration is reinforced by a regenerative braking system, like in electric cars.
Vehicle Will Cost Around R$ 56,5 Thousand
The electric tricycle uses its own motor to slow down the tricycle, generating charge in the process and replenishing part of the electrons used by the battery. In comparison, this type of brake accounts for 40% of all energy used during a Formula E race, the Formula 1 with electric cars.
Since the support of the electric tricycle rests on the two rear wheels, it allows the front part to turn sideways without tipping the load, enabling maneuvering and tighter turns. The whole vehicle system weighs about 70 kilograms, and the Yakbike promises to carry up to 350 kg of cargo at a maximum speed of 25 km/h.
Prices are not cheap, starting at 9,990 Swiss Francs for the rear part resembling a pickup. In direct conversion, it would be around R$ 56,5 thousand and this price varies according to the type of rear support for cargo, which can be larger and for other purposes.
