A modern alternative to the traditional tricycle.

Powering the Bajaj RE is a 198.8cc motor producing 11 hp and 18 Nm torque when running on gasoline. It can also be run on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) but the power figures will be adjusted accordingly. On CNG, the RE makes 10 hp and 14.9 Nm of torque. A third fuel option is LPG, which makes the RE produce 11 hp and 15.2 Nm of torque. The three-wheeler’s speed maxes out at 65 km/h.

The passenger compartment is also put behind the driver making the entry and exit easier when compared to a traditional tricycle.
The Philippines is a very unique market for motorcycles, most especially when it comes to the traditional Philippine tricycle. Bajaj RE is the world’s number one three-wheeler, with a worldwide market share of nearly 80% and over 5 million vehicles already on the road
The RE is ideal for those who need a small vehicle to go on short errands as well as an alternative for those who want to get into the tricycle transport business.

It will also give you the best performance that it can give you out of its 200cc powertrain no matter the fuel being used. It also already has seen use in places like Visayas and Mindanao.
