I'd love to buy a tricycle version for a relative who would like a kind of motability aid but wouldn't like to have one of the typical electric scooters. Anyone have any experience with them? The ones I've seen seem to require manual gear shifting and it would be best if it's as simple as possible.

Checkout electric recumbant bikes. I believe a company called outsiders makes exactly what you are talking about for disabled vets. Name might be wrong but they are out there

I meant to type "outriders." Damn phone.

I'm actually interested in pretty much the same thing, but for someone with walking and balance issues. I've pretty much figured that at some point I'm going to need to get a delta trike (balance issues) and find a way to cobble something together behind the seat.

Maybe a project for spring/summer.
