Trifun
Comment(s): 7
Founded in 2005 by the Estes family, Trifun is now partnered with a motorcycle company in China and has their own manufacturing line in their brand new plant.
After starting by test marketing four sedan samples from China, one electric and three gas they came to the conclusion that there was a market for these types of vehicles in the United States.
All vehicles have the same drivetrain, a midengine manufactured by Wuling and GM, which is a joint venture.
The plan is to build and sell 3000 units in 2008 through a Dealer network located all over the U.S. After 2008, Trifun will be capable of building as many vehicles as the US market demands.
In 2009, Trifun will have a full electric version.

Where is the 42 mpg? With the check engine light on it gets 17mpg.
The fit of the doors is terrible 2in gaps are the norm. Rust and bare wields abound on the unit.
The radio works sometimes sometime not.
Heater that is a joke!
Scared to see what the air does probably does not work or poorly at best.
No information for the dealers about wiring engine oil and none forth coming all under guise of it is a “motorcycle” Buyer beware.
Just to let everyone know the thing is still junk and getting worse I have never seen anything above 18mpg.
If you are brave enough to drive it more than 20 mi something else will go wrong with it.
I have had it towed to the dealership twice now less than 577 miles on the unit the other ones have had the windshield fall out the front suspension collapse transmission failed.
I have a question, you only have 577 miles on yours?
I have a little over 14k on mine and drive it daily. It is the greatest little thing. Also when I registered for the warranty, I got all kinds of information. Another thing that I found out is that I can get a great tax credit in FL. I love my TriFun, and I dont know why you just wouldnt take it in for service.
I had a few issues at first, but the dealer fixed em and sent me on my merry little way.
I hope the best works out for you Norman, It has for me!
I LOVE MY TRIFUN!!!!
610 mi and I am afraid to take it out of the drive. The air filter filled up with water "from the rain"
18 mpg what a piece of trash! The transmission almost impossible to get into second gear JUNK JUNK!
Buyer Beware!
It is intresting the dealership has had so much and so many problems with the TriFun's they have sold Three (3) that they sell them "AS IS" NO warranty now what does that tell you about the quality?

Do not tell me about how I am a problem seems the product is.
I live in El Dorado Arkansas and i need to know where the closets dealership to me is
I need a new gas cap. My dealer is useless as far as repairs or parts go. Any idea on where I can get parts? Is there a make/model that can be used as a replacement. I don't care about the locking, any cap that fits would be great. Thanks in advance.
