What are the differences between the three-wheeled vehicles and the three-wheeled motorcycles? This article explains from three aspects
1. The definition is different. A three-wheeled vehicle is a kind of freight vehicle. It uses an internal combustion engine or an electric motor as its main power source, and there will be guardrails in the compartment. The cargo three-wheeled motorcycle may be similar to it in appearance, but there will be a very clear dividing line. The tricycle with a curb weight of more than 400kg is a cargo three-wheeled vehicle, not a three-wheeled motorcycle.

Of course, many three-wheeled motorcycles are now used for goods, which are similar to those of three-wheeled vehicles. Except for the same appearance, the engines will be relatively similar, and the three-wheeled cargo motorcycles will also have cabs and large cargo boxes.

Moreover, the steering mechanism will also change from the original large handle to the steering wheel, which makes it difficult for ordinary users to distinguish which type of vehicle they are. At this time, we have to use the classification marked on the vehicle consistency certificate or driving license as allow.

2. The purpose is different. The function of the freight tricycle is very single, and it belongs to the scope of agricultural vehicles. But three-wheeled motorcycles are not necessarily the case. According to their own structure and positioning, this type of vehicle can also be subdivided into many types, such as common elderly tricycles, three-wheeled cargo motorcycles, and passenger tricycles.

If the three-wheeled cargo motorcycle is a cargo machine, and its main purpose is to do rough work, then the elderly tricycle and passenger tricycle will have technical upgrades and functional changes. They are more like an alternative to walking. means of transportation. They are essentially different from the three-wheeled cargo motorcycles that mainly do rough work in terms of structure setting and later use. But the three-wheeled car obviously hasn't changed much, it still focuses on the freight label.

3. Size: Three-wheeled motorcycles are generally smaller in size, while three-wheeled cars tend to be larger; three-wheeled cars are also more expensive.

4. Differences in engines: The generator power of a three-wheeled vehicle cannot be less than 150W, so three-wheeled vehicles mostly use independent generators, while three-wheeled motorcycles mostly use generators with integrated engines.

From the perspective of freight transport, three-wheeled vehicles and three-wheeled motorcycles are quite different in appearance and operation methods. Three-wheeled motorcycles are subdivided into more types, more convenient, more popular, and applicable to more people, is no longer just a simple motor vehicle with three wheels, and the use of three-wheeled vehicles is relatively unique, only belonging to agricultural vehicles.
