Volkswagen has never sold trikes. Instead, they were made by independent stores and passionate road warriors from old Volkswagen vehicles. Every authentic VW trike motorcycle is based on the original VW Beetle. The Beetle is still considered the perfect air-cooled motor for running longer and helping drivers feel supported in their trikes.

VW trikes for sale from the 1970s onwards are nearly all based on the Beetle’s engine. Additionally, Volkswagen trikes can be built by obtaining the rear section of any old VW Beetle. From there, builders can build any type or style of the trike. Most contemporary projects begin with a classic 1200 Volkswagen Beetle.

VW trikes for sale are considerably safer than motorcycles. Adding the third wheel makes the trike a more stable vehicle to manage. Moreover, riding a trike puts the driver in a far more natural position. You control the vehicle by using the handlebar, not your body.
