Stability

Three-wheel buggies offer plenty of stability. They aren't prone to tipping over as easily when you are driving straight. They also allow you to maneuver more swiftly. If you turn or stop abruptly, they could lose their stability and fall over. Some manufacturers add an additional wheel to their 3-wheel buggy designs in order to increase the stability of the chassis.

You can also tackle off-road terrain using the additional wheel. Choose models that have air-filled tires (also called pneumatic tyres) that can be used to handle off-road paths, sand and mud, and other surfaces, such as sand and rock.

Safety
