The adoption of electric vehicles also goes through the efforts of lesser-known companies that fight for more space in the market. One of them is Zeway, which hopes to consolidate itself in very busy categories, that of scooters and electric mopeds (two or three-wheel vehicles that reach up to 50 km/h of maximum speed).
The company entered into a partnership with commercial establishments in Paris and neighboring regions of the French capital to offer a network of 40 charging stations. Now, the novelty of the time is an electric tricycle, the SwapperTriango+.

This type of vehicle, which is easier and more stable to drive than motorcycles, is becoming very popular in France. a 5 kW electric motor, the power of the tricycle is equivalent to 125 cc – the same as Honda's Biz. Its top speed is 80 km/h.
It may seem like little, but it is more than enough for daily commutes in the city. Autonomy, according to the manufacturer, is 60 km per charge.
A difference is that the two batteries are removable and can be exchanged for other units already charged at the charging terminals. In practice, this means that you will hardly have to wait for the tricycle to charge, just take another battery and walk away.
This is possible thanks to the brand's decision to use the same type of battery across its vehicle line. See how the process works in the video below.
14″ wheels, CBS brake, which combines the simultaneous operation of the front and rear brakes, the tricycle weighs 106 kg and even has reverse gear, a very useful resource when parking.
Finally, the price secret is in the way the company chose to make the product available. SwapperTriango+ will be sold by subscription only, which costs 205 euros a month (about R$ 1.120 before taxes).
For that amount, the driver can drive unlimited mileage, is entitled to insurance, access to recharge points and battery replacement.
