Three-Wheel Electric Vehicle Motor

48V/60V Three-Wheel Electric Vehicle Motor, 500W-1500W High Torque, Quiet and Waterproof, Dedicated Rear Wheel Motor for Elderly Mobility/Freight Tricycles/Human-Powered Tricycles. Contact Qianjiang Motor for factory-direct price and technical support.

Product Features

1. Maximum Conversion Compatibility

The three-wheel electric vehicle motor has a pure bare flange structure, without an integrated wheel, supporting 16/18/20/22/24/26-inch standard tricycles. Old vehicles and old rims can be directly reused without replacing the entire wheel set. Tires are replaced separately later, and maintenance costs are far lower than integrated wheel motors. Compatible with 99% of household and converted electric tricycles.

2. Maintenance-Free

Abandoning traditional gear reduction and chain drive structures, it adopts a permanent magnet brushless direct drive design. There is no gear wear, no chain loosening or breakage, no need for regular gear oiling, and no need to adjust chain tension. Stable operation, extremely low failure rate, worry-free and labor-saving for long-term use, completely eliminating the hassle of frequent maintenance.

3. High Torque and Powerful Performance

Built-in high-flux neodymium iron boron magnets and optimized stator winding technology, resulting in high starting torque and linear, smooth power output. Smooth acceleration under no-load conditions, and easily handles steep rural slopes, dirt roads, and bumpy surfaces under full load of passengers or cargo. It avoids idling, lack of power, and is not prone to high-temperature demagnetization, making it suitable for both commuting and light freight scenarios.

4. Waterproof and Dustproof

The motor housing is made of thickened die-cast aluminum alloy, combined with multi-layer sealing rings and pressure-locking water-locking technology, achieving IP54 waterproof and dustproof rating.

5. Suitable for various environments

Suitable for normal use in rainy weather, flooded roads, and muddy conditions, effectively preventing mud and rainwater from seeping into the motor, eliminating problems such as winding rust, short circuits, and Hall effect damage, significantly extending the motor's lifespan.

6. Low-speed and high-efficiency

Specifically optimized for low-speed, heavy-load conditions in tricycles, achieving an efficiency of over 85%. Compared to ordinary geared motors, it has a higher energy conversion rate, generates less heat, and consumes less power. With the same battery capacity, it offers a longer range, making it more cost-effective for daily commuting, delivery to markets, and short-distance operations.

7. Quiet operation and comfortable riding

No gear friction or chain noise; pure electromagnetic drive, with operating noise ≤55dB. Smooth and quiet ride, without harsh noises, meeting the comfortable riding needs of elderly people using tricycles for mobility and home leisure, making riding safer for seniors.

7. Multiple Specifications Available

Voltage Support: 48V/60V (72V customizable);

Power Coverage: 500W/800W/1000W/1200W/1500W;

Default Drum Brake Version, Disc Brake Structure Customizable.

Supports customization of axle length, spacing, cable length, and Hall effect cable specifications to meet the needs of modifications, complete vehicle assembly, and bulk OEM orders.

8. Simple Installation

Standard tricycle rear swingarm axle diameter design, universal mounting holes, no frame modifications required. Simply assemble and align with existing spoked wheels, and connect to a standard brushless controller for immediate use. Suitable for personal modifications and shop repairs.

Detailed Product Parameters

Installation Precautions

1. Always disconnect the main battery power supply before installation to avoid short circuits that could damage the Hall effect sensor and controller.

2. Connect the phase wires and Hall effect sensor wires according to their color codes. Incorrect connections will cause problems such as the motor not turning, reversing, or vibrating.

3. After installation, perform a no-load test. Ensure there is no jamming, abnormal noise, or overheating before using the motor on the road.

4. The motor's sealed structure is only waterproof and dustproof; prolonged deep immersion in water is prohibited.

FAQ

Q: Can I directly install my old tricycle wheel rims?

A: As long as the rim size and opening width match, you can install directly. When placing your order, please provide your vehicle model, rim size, and brake type. Customer service will help you match the corresponding model to avoid installation incompatibility.

Q: Can 48V and 60V batteries be used interchangeably?

A: Mixing them is not recommended. Using a 48V motor with a 60V battery will increase speed, but it will cause overheating, demagnetization, and a significantly shortened lifespan.

Using a 60V motor with a 48V battery will result in insufficient power, slow speed, and poor hill-climbing ability. It is recommended that the battery, controller, and motor be used with compatible voltages.

Q: Does this motor require routine maintenance?

A: Brushless direct-drive motors require almost no maintenance. No oil changes or chain adjustments are needed. Routine checks only require checking for loose shaft nuts and damaged wiring harnesses. It's worry-free and durable.

Q: How do I choose the appropriate power?

A: For single-person commuting on flat roads, choose 500W-800W; for tandem commuting and light cargo carrying, choose 800W-1000W; for frequent cargo hauling and mountainous terrain, we recommend 1200W-1500W (60V provides stronger power).

Q: Is the motor waterproof? Can it withstand puddles and rain?

A: It supports riding in the rain and is protected against splashes of water on the road. It's perfectly fine for everyday rain. Do not immerse in deep water for extended periods. Deep immersion will cause seal failure and water ingress damage, which is not covered under warranty.

Q: Do you support customization and bulk OEM/ODM?

A: We support bulk customization of voltage, power, shaft length, cable length, and disc/drum brake structure. We support OEM/ODM and vehicle manufacturer compatibility. Bulk quotations are available.
