Here is good news for the electric trike lovers, Puckipuppy, leading e-bike maker, has officially unveiled its latest e-trike model, the Rottweiler e-trike. This e-trike is designed to combine hauling strength, smooth riding, and rider-friendly features. Built for utility as much as comfort, the Rottweiler looks ready to take on city commutes, grocery runs, or even light recreational adventures. Will you buy this. Lets get more about the latest e-trike:
Power and Performance
For power and performance, the Rottweiler features a 750W nominal motor (960W peak) paired with a torque sensor. This powerful setup gives riders smooth starts, reliable pedal assistance, and steady hill-climbing ability. Unlike cadence-based systems, the torque sensor makes pedaling feel natural, almost as if the motor is working with you rather than for you. For riders who prefer a throttle-only experience, that option is also included to make it versatile for different riding styles.
For speed the trike is limited to 15 mph (25 km/h). While some may wish for more speed, the capped limit ensures stability and reduces the risk of tipping—something trikes are often criticized for. Still, its raw pulling power makes it feel more like a mini utility vehicle than a simple oversized e-bike.
Range and Hauling Capacity
The Rottweiler has a 48V 15Ah (720Wh) battery that offers up to 55 miles (88 km) per charge, however that will also depend on the terrain and load where you ride. And when it comes to hauling, this trike means business. It comes with a 500-pound payload capacity that is good to easily handle heavy groceries, gear, or even a furry friend without breaking a sweat. For many households, that could mean fewer short car trips and more eco-friendly rides.
Safety and Utility Features
Puckipuppy also takes care of the safety of the riders. To ensure the Rottweiler is packed with features usually reserved for higher-end electric vehicles. Riders get integrated rear turn signals, hydraulic disc brakes, and a parking brake for added safety. One of the outstanding is the thumb-operated reverse gear, a rare but welcome addition that makes maneuvering out of tight spots effortless.
Comfort and Design
The company designed the e-trike while taking care of the rider’s comfort. It comes with dual suspension, 20×4” fat tires, and a cushioned seat with a backrest. All are designed to smooth out bumps and make longer rides enjoyable. A large 4.7-inch color LCD display, dual-beam headlights, and butterfly handlebars for multiple riding positions round out the rider experience.
Price and Market Position
The Rottweiler e-trike is priced at $2,399, which puts it above many budget trikes in the market. However, Puckipuppy is clearly positioning it as a feature-rich alternative rather than a low-cost option. With its mix of power, hauling ability, and comfort, the automaker is targeting U.S. riders who want more than just a basic electric trike.
As electric bikes and trikes continue to grow in popularity in the U.S., the Puckipuppy Rottweiler looks like a strong addition for anyone who values utility, comfort, and advanced features. It’s not the cheapest option, but for riders who want a capable cargo-ready electric trike, the Rottweiler may just be worth the investment.
