I’m super bullish on electric trikes. I may not be a silver-haired fox (yet), but even at a ripe 36 years old, I can appreciate the advantages of a comfortable e-trike just as much as their larger market of mature riders.
I don’t think age or accessibility should be the only factors when considering the advantages of three wheels over two, and the MeetOne Tour dual motor electric trike is a great example of that. Sure, it’d be awesome for folks who can no longer feel the same confidence or stability from two-wheelers. But it’s also just a blast to ride at any age and ability level!
Don’t just take my word for it, though. Take my video for it! Check out my experience in my video review below, or keep reading for the full details.

Comfort and performance in a single package
The MeetOne Tour Dual Motor E-Trike stands out as a robust and comfortable option in the electric tricycle market. With its semi-recumbent design, dual motors, and thoughtful features, it offers a compelling ride for those seeking stability and performance.
You’d be forgiven for thinking that an electric tricycle wouldn’t be a thrilling ride, but MeetOne has somehow nailed both the power and comfort in a single e-bike, and the experience is incredible. I kept thinking, “This trike shouldn’t feel this good,” and yet here we are.
The semi-recumbent seating position of the Tour E-Trike provides a relaxed posture, reducing strain on the back and knees. Your legs are nicely stretched out in front of you instead of folded up underneath you.
The oversized seat with backrest enhances comfort, making longer rides more enjoyable. The trike’s full suspension system with dual-crown fork and dual rear shocks effectively absorbs road imperfections, contributing to a smoother ride. It all just works together so nicely. There’s even a new seat that has since been added, complete with armrests, making this thing more of a living room recliner on wheels than a traditional e-trike.
There’s also a reverse mode, which is important for such a bulky trike that you might have trouble maneuvering around into a tight spot.
And as an added note on comfort, the bike arrives almost completely assembled, so it’s a lot easier to get rolling than some trikes that require significant at-home assembly.
And then there’s the power. Equipped with dual 750W hub motors, the Tour E-Trike delivers a combined 180 Nm of torque, offering strong acceleration and the ability to tackle inclines with ease. The traction is spread out with one motor in the rear and the other in the front hub, making sure that power actually gets to the ground.
The trike’s top speed is listed at 25 mph (40 km/h), though I found that throttle-only mode reached only 15 mph (25 km/h), with pedal assist enabling higher speeds. The torque sensor provides responsive assistance, adjusting power based on pedaling effort for a natural riding experience.
The battery range is no slouch, either. Dual 48V 15Ah Samsung batteries (totaling 30Ah or 1,440 Wh) offer a claimed range of up to 130 miles (210 km) under optimal conditions – though I doubt anyone will see a range that big. Even so, 50 miles (80 km) is doable even on throttle riding thanks to those dual batteries.
This extended range makes the Tour E-Trike great for long-distance rides and daily commutes alike. Plus, the batteries are supposedly UL2271 certified, adding even more peace of mind.
Safety and cargo capacity
As with any e-trike, safety is critical due to the inherent instability of delta tricycles in turns and the undeniable fact that many riders are going to be older and more accident-prone. Fortunately, I’m glad to see that MeetOne addressed many safety concerns right from the start.
The wide rear end helps keep the trike feeling more stable in turns, though you still shouldn’t go full speed into a hairpin. To ensure that doesn’t happen, the trike features hydraulic disc brakes on all wheels, providing reliable stopping power. The parking brake is also user-friendly, requiring minimal effort to engage. Most parking brakes on e-bikes require a lot of hand strength to pull the lever in fully, with a second hand usually needed to push a locking mechanism. On the MeetOne, the parking brake lever is activated first, then the rider pulls the brake handle as far as they’d like. It’s a much easier-to-use design.
The trike’s well-placed mirrors also offer clear rearward visibility, enhancing safety during rides. Additional features include a reverse mode for easy maneuvering and a differential for smooth cornering.
With a maximum load capacity of 550 lbs (250 kg) and a rear basket capable of holding up to 100 lbs (45 kg), the Tour E-Trike is well-suited for carrying groceries, gear, or other essentials.
A rear bag in the large rear basket also helps enclose smaller things and prevent them from falling out of the basket. You can toss your keeps or water bottle into the bag and know that they’ll still be there, even after a bumpy ride.
What’s not to like?
With a trike like this, what’s not to like? No, like, I actually mean it. Here’s what I don’t like.
First of all, the trike is heavy as #&%!
I don’t even know how heavy it is. I don’t have a scale big enough to weigh it and MeetOne doesn’t list the weight. It’s got to be well over 100 lb (45 kg), though. I’d guess around 115 to 120 lb (52-54 kg). It’s also bulky, meaning picking it up would require multiple people. If you did need to transport it, use a ramp and a pickup truck – I’m not sure there’s a better option.
Next, it’s pricey. An XP Trike is less than half the price, and so you and your partner could both get one and have money left over. But then again, this thing is way comfier, way more powerful, and just a lot more trike. So this isn’t a model for someone trying to shop on a budget – it’s a model for someone who wants a lot more than they’ll find elsewhere.
And lastly, having two batteries is nice, but needing to keep up with charging two batteries isn’t. A single charger that fed both batteries would be nice, or a single larger battery. That being said, one massive battery puts all your eggs in one basket, and if your battery ever dies, you’ve got an expensive hunk of nickel and lithium to replace. Two batteries give you redundancy that could be quite welcome in that situation, so there is something to be said for two independent battery packs!
Final thoughts
All in all, the MeetOne Tour is one of the most compelling electric trikes I’ve tested to date. It’s not trying to be the lightest or flashiest trike on the market – instead, it leans fully into being a feature-rich, ultra-comfortable machine that puts practicality and comfort above all else. From the full suspension setup to the semi-recumbent seat, everything about the Tour is built to make the ride as smooth and pleasant as possible. And it works. Whether you’re commuting, running errands, or just cruising for the joy of it, this e-trike feels stable, capable, and incredibly well thought-out. The added weight may make it a bit more effort to move around manually, but once you’re rolling, that heft translates into confidence and stability on the road.
It’s also packed with the kind of little details that make a big difference. The reverse gear might sound minor, but it’s a lifesaver when navigating tight spots. The mirrors are actually useful, something that’s all too rare on electric trikes. And the braking system, complete with easy-to-engage parking brakes, shows that the designers thought about real-world usability. At $3,299, it’s not the cheapest trike out there, but considering the dual motors, dual batteries, and comfort-focused build, it still feels like strong value. For riders looking for a serious mobility solution that doesn’t compromise on ride quality or utility, the MeetOne Tour Dual Motor E-Trike is absolutely worth a closer look.
