A Detailed Comparison
The XP Trike 2 was re-engineered based on rider feedback. The two most significant physical upgrades are a stronger, more stable hydroformed frame and a comprehensive suspension system that improves ride comfort.
Rigid Steel Fork
Transmitted all road vibrations directly to the rider.
Standard Aluminum Frame
A functional, standard design.
Cloud 50 Suspension System
50mm front fork travel and included suspension seat post absorb bumps.
Hydroformed Frame
A stronger, stiffer chassis with a lower center of gravity for improved stability.
The XP Trike 2 maintains the original's power output but has a slightly smaller battery capacity to accommodate the frame and suspension upgrades at the same price point.
Peak power and torque remain identical between the two 500W models.
The Trike 2's smaller battery is a trade-off for its upgrades, resulting in a 10-mile reduction in maximum claimed range.
The XP Trike 2 platform enhances safety with a more powerful braking system and integrated turn signals, while the new digital display modernizes the user experience.
Adds integrated rear turn signals to the existing brake light for enhanced communication on the road.
A bright, detachable screen with a USB-C port and intuitive menus.
Limits speed and acceleration for a safer, less intimidating learning curve.
Thicker rotors dissipate heat more effectively, reducing brake fade and ensuring consistent stopping power.
The XP Trike 2 offers key upgrades in comfort and stability. This side-by-side view summarizes the differences.
