The Triskelion MC 600v reverse trike, manufactured by Raven, is a specialized, three-wheeled vehicle that Sam can use to traverse the American continent and aid in his expedition.
Overview[]
The reverse trike is a high-speed vehicle designed for efficient travel across both flat and rugged terrain, making it useful for quick getaways in dangerous situations. At lower speeds, it operates with two separate front wheels for improved stability. As speed increases, the front wheels combine into one, greatly increasing the top speed. This mode, however, drains the battery much faster than the normal, low-speed mode.
There are several variants of the reverse trike, each optimized for different cargo needs. Early in his journey, Sam will be able to fabricate the standard variant, with the long-range variant becoming available soon after. The long-range variant features two additional battery units that allow for longer distance, while the defensive variant is equipped with a protective field. Both, however, have reduced cargo capacity. The transporter variant boasts the highest cargo capacity. As with trucks, carrying heavier loads will drain the battery more quickly—especially in water or on steep terrain.
Description[]
A battery-powered reverse trike. Standard issue for Bridges operatives.
Its cargo shelf can carry up to six pieces of medium-sized cargo.
The trike is capable of speed boosts, wheelies, and jumps, all of which can be used to traverse difficult terrain.
Be aware, however, that the battery will drain very quickly when the trike is in water.
The batter will gradually recharge in sunny or cloudy weather.
The trike will also short-circuit when struck by a MULE's electrical attack, resulting in it becoming temporarily unusable.
Required materials[]
Models[]
| Name | Description | Materials | Unlock |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reverse Trike: Long Range | Two large battery units have been added to the cargo shelf. This reduces the cargo capacity, but increases its range. |
|
Obtain Connection Level 3 with Lake Knot City |
| Reverse Trike: Defensive | Two electromagnetic shield units have been added to the cargo shelf. This reduced cargo capacity, but damage taken from gunfire and other impacts is reduced, and electrical attacks are neutralized. It will still be vulnerable to falls from high places. |
|
Obtain Connection Level 3 with South Knot City |
| Reverse Trike: "Ride" Type | Custom reverse trike inspired by the TV show "Ride with Norman Reedus". Additional onboard battery and electromagnetic shield unit maximize battery capacity and provides protection while letting you carry six medium-sized pieces of cargo. |

| Reverse Trike: Transporter |
Designed to carry large amounts of cargo, eight large pieces of cargo can be loaded onto the cargo shelf, with space for more on the side of the trike itself. |

Obtain Connection Level 4 with Lake Knot City |
| Reverse Trike: "Yaiba Kusanagi" Type | A version of the Reverse Trike: Defensive with an improved jump. This model was developed using data discovered on a mysterious chip. The Trike was made to special specifications, and its color scheme is non-customizable. |

Notes[]
- In concept art, the reverse trike is referred to as the Triskelion MC 600v.
- The reverse trike is one of the vehicles in Death Stranding with the most variants and collaboration content:
- The Reverse Trike: "Ride" Type serves as a collaboration between Kojima Productions and the Ride with Norman Reedus travel series.[1]
- The Reverse Trike: "Yaiba Kusanagi" Type is one of several cross-content items from Cyberpunk 2077 available in the PC version, and later maintained in the Director's Cut.
- The Reverse Trike: Transporter Type is available exclusively in the Director's Cut.
- Possible cargo configurations can include:
- 1x XL container on each side
- 1x Large + 2x Small containers on each side
- 1x Large + 1x Medium container on each side
- 3x Medium containers on each side
- 2x Medium + 2x Small containers on each side
- 1x Medium + 4x Small containers on each side
- 6x Small containers on each side
- Or combinations of these configurations
- Players can craft a reverse trike, and if stored in their garage, it will be available for other players visiting that location to use. This grants the player additional likes.
- As with all vehicles, when damaged during travel, or deteriorated by timefall, it can be stored in a garage for repairs.
- The reverse trike is faster than BTs in their "investigating state," as long as the player doesn't use boost mode. This holds true even on Very Hard difficulty.
