Over the past year, Addmotor has released several e-trikes that fit various needs and use cases. With no sign of stopping, Addmotor has released a new model: LANDTAN Fat Tire Electric Trike.
What’s great about this model is that it’s all about simplicity and performance. The LANDTAN is great for riding on light to medium off-road paths. The fat tires guarantee to keep things comfortable and stable through any challenging surfaces.
But apart from the all-terrain capabilities, the LANDTAN also provides the best value for money. It has stripped out all unnecessary and gimmicky features with only the essentials covered.
So essentially, the LANDTAN is great for tinkerers and minimalists. It doesn’t have all the bells and features of previous high-end models. On the flip side, it’s lightweight and allows riders to customize things as they need.
So let’s talk more about the Addmotor LANDTAN and how it can be your next best electric tricycle.
The LANDTAN is priced fairly low compared to the heavy hitters. For instance, the LANDTAN isn’t as equipped as other Addmotor electric bikes like the GRANDTAN or ARISETAN. That said, it does have a set of new features. For starters, the LANDTAN is the first 3-wheel electric bike to debut with Addmotor's hollow saddle.
This new saddle design features a unique design. This seat has two spring shock absorbers connected between the seat tube and saddle. These shock absorbers ensure you can ride longer and more comfortably. They absorb shocks and vibrations from the road and are particularly effective against sudden impacts.
So whether you're cruising around town or adventuring off the beaten path, this saddle will keep you comfy and relaxed. In turn, it will make you love the LANDTAN fat tire electric trike and keep riding for longer.
But the revolutionary new saddle is just the beginning. The LANDAN also offers unique perks such as:
But, in case you need more convincing, don’t worry. Here are some use cases and rider profiles to help you get a better idea:
- Fitness Buffs: The LANDTAN is great for adults who prioritize physical fitness. It’s more responsive than heavier trikes and light enough to ride at higher speeds. Also, you can take it offroad guilt-free.
- Commuters and Students: The LANDTAN is affordable and low-maintenance. It’s great for students and commuters who want to ride in the city without spending a fortune.
- OffRoad Bikers: The LANDTAN doesn’t mind a little mud, dust or grime. Besides, it doesn’t have fragile components that can malfunction from a little water or dust. So this Addmotor electric trike is great for handling off road trails.
- Everyday Riders: Apart from the above special use cases, any regular adult can easily ride the LANDTAN. Because of the lack of features, you can customize the frame and include other accessories. Besides, it’s built for more rugged use so you don’t have to worry about keeping it clean all the time.
That being said, the LANDTAN does not include an adjustable backrest. Addmotor has taken out the backrest in favor of keeping things lightweight and affordable.
So riders coming from the GRANDTAN lineup might find this a little uncomfortable. That said, it doesn’t take too long to get used to.
Also, the LANDTAN has a slight backward tilt in the seat tube. This is intentional as it helps riders stay in an upright position without too much back support.
Besides that, the handlebar reach is about 1.34”. It’s not great for children but good enough for most adults.
Also, the LANDTAN is designed with somewhat shorter riders in mind. Its recommended height range is 5’1”-5’9”. This makes it great for short female riders and anybody under 6”.
All good things aside though, the LANDTAN does not come with a footrest. So it won’t provide the most luxurious experience when riding the throttle.
The new battery enclosure fits on the underside of the rear rack. It also houses the brake lights and connects flawlessly with the rest of the EB 2.0 system.
The motor is the same 750W rear-mounted one you can find in the GRANDTAN and other Addmotor electric bikes. The motor connects to the rear differential, which then provides the right amount of power to each wheel.
The motor has 1,400W of peak power and 90Nm of maximum torque. It’s good enough for climbing hills at full throttle and also accelerating to full speed in less than 5-10 seconds.
- Rear Cargo Bags
- Backrest
- Footboard
- Fenders
- Rear Suspension
- Passenger Seats
- Foldable frame
But getting rid of these features has offered certain benefits. For instance, the low price tag.
Unlike the GRANDTAN or GREATTAN big wheel trike models, it doesn’t cost upwards of $2,000. This makes it almost comparable to the Addmotor CITYTRI.
So if you want a no-nonsense yet future-proof eTrike at a reasonable price, the LANDTAN should be right up your alley. It runs just as well as a high-end GRANDTAN step-through electric trike but costs less than the CITYTRI trike and won’t break the bank.
However, it more than makes up for it with the more entry-level price tag and simplified features. The performance aspects and riding experience are still comparable to that of a high-end GRANDTAN II. Also, this one is more ready to tackle off-road terrain thanks to the 4-inch fat tires and robust frame.
So if you’re looking for a fat tire electric trike that’s easy on the bank account but just as powerful, look no further. The LANDTAN might be the one for you.
