Light, compact, and efficient, the French quadricycle transports two people with comfort and economy

The French company Acticycle has revealed a new concept for urban transportation: an ultra-light electric quadricycle focused on sustainable mobility. Capable of carrying up to two people (total weight up to 300 kg), the vehicle reaches a top speed of 45 km/h, making it ideal for urban commuting.
Weighing only 100 kg — about five times lighter than a golf cart — the model promises significant savings: according to the manufacturer, its operational costs are up to six times lower than those of a conventional car, and maintenance is comparable to that of a cargo bike.
There are three versions available, all built with an aluminum frame, double seats with foam padding, a windshield, a polycarbonate roof, and a 170-liter trunk with a lock.
The prices vary depending on the motor power:
• The 250 W model costs $12,800,
• The 750 W model costs $13,900,
• The most advanced version is offered for $15,500.
The estimated delivery time is four to six months after payment.
It is also possible to customize the quadricycle with complete headlights and taillights, Schwalbe 20 x 2.35-inch tires with puncture protection, Tektro Augira Twin hydraulic disc brakes, double rearview mirrors, and full suspension on both the front and rear wheels.
