| Comparative characteristics | The three-wheeler hung up | 3-wheeled tow truck for transporting goods |
| Engine | Mainly improved from old popular motorbikes | Usually water-cooled internal combustion engines are used. Engine specialized for cargo vehicles |
| Design | Improved according to the driver's needs | Professional design - usually follows a common form for all types of vehicles |
| Driving and observing style | Sit in the front driving – look in the rearview mirror | Sit behind the wheel - observe with the naked eye |
| Transmission | By chain acting on the rear wheel. | Using the sand shaft to impact the vehicle's underbody |
| Steering angle | Extremely wide steering angle - can bend more than 90 degrees on each side | Can only fold up to 50 degrees on each side |
| Power system | Almost completely omitted – handmade electrical switches | Use electric switch shackles like a motorbike. There are additional rear lights, license plate lights and rear direction request lights like a truck. Headlights for night lighting are round or square headlights + front direction request lights with an easy-to-identify design. |
| Gear | Universal 4-speed gearbox | The improved gearbox includes 4 forward gears and 1 reverse gear |
| Brake system | Simple leaf brakes | Rear hydraulic brake + Front disc brake |
| Cool | Cooled by natural wind | By water tank + electric fan + natural wind |
| Tires on the box | Small type, fixed to a fixed shaft | Large type, mounted to the chassis with adjustable differential. Allows for easier and safer driving |
| Load capacity | Only at a low level (500kg) because gravity acts directly on the steering wheel | Bearing load up to 2000kg - 3000kg |
| High loading capacity | Cannot be loaded because it obscures visibility while driving | Be able to load comfortably (but you should still only load the goods according to regulations - not too high and easily tilt the vehicle and crash at high altitude) |
