NO!    Swincars are built according to the highest manufacturing standards in an ISO certified assembly plant near Lyon, France.  Unfortunately, Swincars have caught the eyes of scammers and we’ve heard reports of a Chinese built “spider car” being sold online via Alibaba, and a Facebook scam selling Swincars for $300. Be careful, and don’t hesitate to give us a call or shoot us a message if you see a Swincar offer that looks too good to be true…

Yes! The Swincar charger is plugged into a standard wall socket, US Swincars are usually equipped with 110 volt chargers, although 220 volt charger plugs are available.  The outlet must be on at least a 20 amp circuit.

The Swincar charger may also be plugged into an inverter generator, or a solar charging generator with at least 1100 watts of power available.

Maintenance requirements are low. You should perform regular alignment checks to ensure that the articulating arms are in line and that the wheels are at the proper camber. You should regularly check the tire pressure, and occasionally you will need to tighten connecting bolts that will loosen over time from off-road use.   Additional information can be found in the Swincar Owner’s Manual.

A charge is good for over 4 hours of drive time on the single seater, and about 3.5 hours on the tandem. On flat ground at approximately 20mph, you can go over 80 miles on a charge.   When travelling in hilly terrain, results will be similar, due to the regenerative braking capability.

From empty, the battery will charge in 2.5 – 3 hours.   If you charge up with one or two bars left on the battery meter, charging will likely take under two hours.

The recommended maximum weight is 285lbs for the single-seat model, and a combined 500lb maximum load for the tandem model.

Riders that exceed weight capacities can still enjoy high speeds and respectable performance, but will likely notice a slightly lower top speed, reduced battery life, and some difficulty climbing higher-grade hills.

With regards to height, there is no manufacturer-specified maximum. However, exceptionally tall riders’ heads will sit higher than the top of the roll bar. This sets the driver up for a potentially dangerous roll scenario and it is not recommended that these individuals drive Swincars. Alternatively, owners can outfit vehicles with custom-fitted taller rollbars, and Swincar is looking to design a special adapter to increase rollbar heights by several inches. Contact ASI or your local Swincar dealer with questions or assistance in adapting your vehicle for taller riders.

They can be! Laws and regulations vary by state. However, in most areas, as per recommended federal guidelines, Swincars equipped with headlights, brake-lights, turn signals, rear-view mirrors, windshields, and required registrations can be classified as low-speed electric vehicles and driven on two-lane roads with speed limits listed under 35mph.

Consult with your SwincarUSA sales rep.

Yes. It is possible to roll a Swincar, although doing so is difficult compared to traditional off-road vehicles. The pendulum design and low center of gravity make the Swincar an incredibly stable vehicle, even when traveling across steep grades. In three years of offering commercial Swincar tours in Chattanooga, TN, Adventure Sports Innovation has seen only a handful of rollovers and no resulting injuries.

The top speed is approximately 20 mph.   Swincars are designed for fast acceleration – with just over 2 seconds from zero to top speed – and power over obstacles and difficult terrain.

Every Swincar comes with a manufacturer warranty of two years (or 150 hours) on the battery, and one year warranty that covers any defects of construction or materials. This does not include normal wear and tear items such as tires, control cables, brake pads, shock absorbers, etc. except in the event of an established manufacturing defect.

Yes! The Tandem swincar positions the passenger directly behind the driver to take full advantage of the pendulum design without any reduction in cross-country abilities. The open body-pod leaves ample leg room for passengers, while larger, more powerful hub motors take you everywhere that your single-seat can.
