By Addmotor | 24 April 2025 | 0 Comments

Ever been the backseat rider on a passenger trike?

You got a seat but no say in the ride. You see the wind in your friend’s hair, feel the breeze on their face, and wonder why you’re stuck tagging along.
Say no more.

Addmotor M-380 E-trike was built to kick that FOMO to the curb.

With this tandem trike, there’s no more sitting pretty while someone else grabs all the action. Both seats come equipped with pedals, which means you’re co-captain of the ride. Woo-hoo!

Let’s dive into what makes tandem adventures on this electric trike (3 wheel electric bike) a whole new kind of fun.

A Trike Tandem Bicycle That Puts Everyone in Sync

Tandem bikes are nothing new. But a tandem trike with electric assist and independent pedaling systems?

That’s where the M-380 Tandem Trike Electric takes the spotlight.

Unlike traditional tandem bikes, where both riders have to pedal in sync (which, let’s be honest, can get awkward fast), the M-380 gives each rider their own control. Thanks to its dual freewheel cranksets and the advanced drivetrain system, the front and rear pedals operate independently. That means if one person wants to pedal like they’re on a mission, and the other just wants to cruise, it’s totally doable.

The best part? No one’s left behind. This trike tandem bike levels the playing field, making it ideal for riders with different energy levels, fitness abilities, or mobility needs. You don’t have to be an athlete to keep up—or slow down for anyone.

Stability Like No Other

Did you know that most electric trikes from other brands have a rear track of just 22.4 inches?

In comparison, the Addmotor M-380 has a 38.5-inch rear track to keep the trike grounded and stable, even with two people on board. You’ll feel secure whether you’re going up a hill, cruising over uneven pavement, or slowing to a stop at a busy intersection.

It also has a speed differential to enhance maneuverability and ensure safe turning around tight corners.

Power That Goes the Distance

This tandem trike for adults is built for real performance.

It features a powerful 750W rear-drive motor with a torque sensor. That sensor reads how hard you’re pedaling and adjusts the power accordingly, making the ride smooth, efficient, and responsive. It feels more natural and in control compared to old-school cadence sensors.

And if you’ve ever worried about running out of juice mid-ride, don’t. The M-380 offers an optional dual-battery system. With both batteries, you’ll get serious mileage (up to 130 miles) for longer city rides, weekend adventures, or daily errands.

Just pop in both power packs and go explore. And if you don’t need the extra battery, stick with one (a removable, built-in battery) and save on weight. It’s all about flexibility and tailoring the ride to fit your needs.

Comfort Where It Counts

The M-380 tandem trike has clearly been designed by people who ride. The front seat is adjustable and easy to mount, but it’s the rear seat that stands out. It includes a backrest, which makes it perfect for someone who might need extra support, like older adults, riders recovering from injury, or teenagers who want to join but don’t have the strength for long rides.

There’s also a wooden footrest for the second rider, so they can rest their feet during long rides when in throttle mode. Additionally, the front suspension fork with 80mm of travel promises that no bumps, vibrations, or jolts from uneven terrain will reach the rider(s). The fat 4‑inch tires further tame potholes and gravel, so you never have to compromise on comfort.

Safety? Check!

The M-380 tandem trike comes equipped with Tektro mechanical disc brakes on all three wheels. When you’re slowing down gradually on a trail or need to make a quick stop in traffic, the braking is smooth, responsive, and evenly distributed. It gives you peace of mind knowing you’re always in control, no matter the terrain or speed.

Need to park on a slope or while unloading groceries? The parking brake system has your back. Just engage it when you stop, and the electric trike stays firmly in place—no rolling, tipping, or awkward balancing acts. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference, especially when riding with someone with mobility issues.

In terms of visibility, the EB 2.0 lighting system takes things to the next level. You get a bright headlight up front and a super-functional 5-in-1 taillight in the back. The latter includes integrated turn signals and brake lights so you can be seen from all angles, and other road users always know what you’re doing.

With 150 lbs. rated on the rear storage rack, your weekly grocery haul, picnic baskets, and weekend camping cooler can fit easily. Many riders add Addmotor’s trailer for even more capacity.

Built for Real-Life Chores and Adventures

Every feature on the M-380 feels like it’s been put there with daily life in mind. The step-through frame makes getting on and off a breeze for both riders, and the low center of gravity makes it easy to handle, even with a full load of 500 lbs.

Whether you’re using it for fitness, commuting, weekend rides, or to bring someone along who might not be able to ride solo, this trike tandem bicycle is up for the challenge. It’s a real-world solution for real people.

Who’s It For?

The beauty of the M-380 trike tandem bike is that it doesn’t have a single “ideal user.” It’s designed for:

- Couples who love riding but are at different fitness levels

- Parents and kids looking to make bike rides more inclusive

- Caregivers supporting an adult with limited mobility

- Seniors who want to share rides with spouses or friends

- Anyone who wants to make memories with a loved one while enjoying the freedom of the road

If you’ve ever felt like a traditional bike or e-trike didn’t quite meet your needs—or left someone behind—the M-380 electric trike fills that gap beautifully.
