2025 has been an excellent year for trike accessories. Electric trike riders now have more options than ever when it comes to customising and upgrading their trikes. Electric trike accessories improve comfort, safety, and practicality. They enhance the ownership and riding experience more than you may realise.
In this blog, we'll talk about the electric trike trends for 2025. You'll learn about what accessories are worth buying and explain how to use the right options for comfort, safety, and performance.
How To Choose Electric Trike Accessories
Before you upgrade your electric trike, start by thinking about what you want it to do better. Electric trike accessories usually improve three things: safety, comfort, and practicality.
With these three things in mind, consider your priorities. For example, if you're a commuter who rides in mixed weather, you may want to focus on lighting kits and weatherproof storage. But, if you use your electric trike for recreation, upgraded seats and cargo capacity may benefit you more. By matching accessories to your riding goals, you can improve your electric trike without clutter; all add-ons serve a purpose.
Top Comfort Add-Ons
Comfort is one of the biggest reasons why cyclists switch to electric trikes. 2025 saw a significant rise in electric trike upgrades aimed at further improving comfort.
Upgraded seats
Modern gel-padded or ergonomic seats reduce pressure points and help to improve your posture during long rides. You will notice that some electric trikes have suspension seat posts that absorb vibration over uneven terrain. If you really want to improve comfort, look for high-end saddles that require you to measure your seatbones to select the perfect fit.
Phone Holders and Mounts
A good quality phone mount allows you to use navigation apps without taking your hands off the handlebars. It's best to use them with a weather-resistant case to protect your phone in the rain.
Handlebar Grips
It is common for electric trike riders to upgrade their handlebar grips. You can buy thicker or ergonomically designed grips that reduce hand fatigue. Try a few out to see what suits you best.
Mirrors
One of the biggest electric trike accessory trends for 2025 is adding rear-view mirrors. These neat accessories reduce the need to look over your shoulder, giving you a more relaxed riding experience, especially in traffic.
Safety Must-Haves
Safety is and should be a priority for electric trike riders. Although modern electric trikes are considered to be very safe ways of getting around, there's no harm in making yours even safer!
Advance Lighting Systems
Most quality electric trikes come with lights, but you can add LED headlight and taillight kits with daytime running lights. Some kits also include turn signals and brake lights. If you ride in low-light conditions regularly, we recommend upgrading your lights and maybe even buying a good headtorch to attach to your helmet.
Reflective Accessories
With some reflective details, you can improve your visibility to other road users. For example, fit your electric trike with reflective wheel tape and frame decals; light bounces off them, alerting people to your presence.
Cargo and Utility Upgrades
One of the most significant advantages of riding an electric trike is its superior storage capacity. Electric trike accessory trends for 2025 include some clever ways to help you carry more stuff.
Baskets
Baskets have evolved from the old-fashioned wicker items our grandparents had. Although there's nothing wrong with them, modern baskets are sturdy, water-resistant, and include quick-release systems for easier use off the trike.
Cargo Bags and Utility Boxes
Soft cargo bags provide flexible storage for groceries and personal items. You can also get lockable utility boxes for secure storage when commuting.
Trailers
Sometimes standard electric trike storage just isn't enough; this is where trailers come in. By towing a trailer with your electric trike, you can easily transport bulkier items, kids, or your dog.
Weather and Travel Kits
You may want or have to ride your electric trike all year round. If so, you need to choose some weatherproofing accessories for both your comfort and the longevity of your electric trike.
Waterproof Covers
You can now buy lightweight compact covers that protect your trike from the weather when it's parked outside.
Fenders and Mudguards
Extended fenders protect you and your trike's sensitive components from splashes, improving comfort, reducing cleaning needs, and wear and tear.
Winter Accessories
Upgraded tires are a great way to improve grip in wet or snowy weather. Try to choose tires that suit the typical weather conditions in your area. If you ride in extreme cold, you may want to buy a thermal cover for your electric trike's battery. Thermal covers reduce the adverse effects of cold on your battery's chemistry, reducing range.
Travel Add-Ons
When traveling to unfamiliar places, we recommend buying some accessories to keep you riding. For example, make sure you have a small toolkit, a pump, spare inner tubes, and tire levers. These are essential to prevent you from getting stranded.

Although Mooncool prides itself on offering compatibility, it's best to confirm that your planned accessory is actually compatible. This is especially the case for accessories such as mirrors, baskets, and electronic upgrades.
