The perfect match
Electric drive and recumbent trike like made for each other!
Want to expand your vehicles action radius?
Conquer your local mountain
while still smiling, even with a trailer? Or do you simply want a quick
and relaxed journey to work? Our electrical auxiliary drive is the
perfect solution: When you pedal, a quiet hub motor supports you by up
to tripling your pedalling force. This is easy as our systems are among
the most powerful and lightweight drives on the market.
In addition our premium electric GO SwissDrive system convinces with
spectacular features such as a reverse gear and a remote control.
Particularly impressive:
The sophisticated control technology maintains
the feeling of you riding a trike when on your Scorpion; there is no
jerking, no noise, and no fault-prone gas pedal or throttle! The systems
are extremely reliable: it only assists you when you pedal. The motive
force starts quietly with the first turn of the pedal and is gently
electronically disabled when you reach 25 km/h (15 mph). This
pre-programmed assistance threshold means that your electric vehicle is
classified as a pedelec (Pedal Electric Cycle) in Germany and can be
ridden without any license, helmet, or insurance.
Above this speed, your trike almost rides like a regular cycle again
– without gear friction losses thanks to the gearless hub motor.
Spectacular advantage
for your vehicle with the Go Swiss drive system is
the electric reverse gear. With this reversing and maneuvering work on
the touch of a button, without having to get out of the drivers seat.
Here the trikes can really play their trump card, when reversing safe
and sound at speeds up to 3 km/h (1.86 mph).
Tailwind on the push of a button:
The remote control of the new GoSwiss
Drive system is attached directly on the handlebars. Everything can be
controlled intuitively by thumb on the touch pads, without having to
look. Though orientating becomes easy when looking at the large,
anti-glare 3.2 inch colour display. Optimum readability is provided
through semi-transluscent/reflective display technology which works even
in strong sunlight, by actively incorporating ambient light. Various
different screens for drive- or standing modes are available.
The control unit is extremely versatile:
Via the in-built Bluetooth
interface incoming cell phone calls can be announced while riding. Tour
data can be read out with the help of an app directly to your smart
phone. Via the powered (5V - 1A) USB port electronic devices like a
phone can be charged.
A further major benefit
of the motor used by HP Velotechnik is there
ability to not only use electric power but also to generate it, to a
degree. If you brake, the motor assists you. It decelerates and produces
power. This protects the brakes and trickle charges the battery. On
downhill sections, you can therefore replenish some of the power
reserves used to go uphill. This is known as recuperation and can extend
the range in total by up to 10 percent.
Practical:
When placed on a training roller at home, the adjustable
recuperation resistance turns your Scorpion into a comfortable recumbent
home trainer. Otherwise the detachable battery can be quickly recharged
from your mains socket in just a few hours. Smile: With modern green
electricity, a full charge of riding pleasure is about 10 Euro-Cents only.
