The Oruga Unitrack represents a significant technological advancement in the field of off-road vehicles, specifically designed to conquer numerous challenging environments. Originating from the innovative minds at Oruga SIA, a mobility technology startup based in Riga, Latvia, this three-wheeled motorcycle boasts a unique monotrack system. This system is designed to effortlessly handle harsh conditions like steep hills, deep snow, muddy forests, and sandy terrains. Founded in the summer of 2023, the startup is named after the Spanish word for caterpillar, reflecting their vehicle’s ability to smoothly traverse various landscapes.
The Oruga Unitrack is considered one of the most prominent models showcased at TechChill 2024, the annual startup and technology conference taking place on April 18-19, 2024, in Riga, Latvia.

Unveiled at the opening of TechChill 2024 in Riga, the Oruga Unitrack drew significant attention due to its distinctive design and capabilities. The vehicle features an electric motor and a large battery, providing abundant power along with the added benefit of quiet operation—an essential feature for tactical military applications and nature exploration. The integrated design of three large balloon tires within a specialized monotrack system promises high performance and ease of use for riders.
Oruga’s headquarters is located in the capital of Latvia, Riga, and the first batch of 100 Unitrack units will be manufactured in Latvia starting mid-2025, available for online purchase with pre-orders currently accepted.
The Oruga Unitrack is equipped with several advanced technologies, including:
- Powerful Electric Drive System: The electric motor of the Oruga Unitrack boasts a power output of up to 90kW, equivalent to 120 horsepower. This allows the vehicle to achieve a maximum speed of up to 97 km/h and climb gradients of up to 60%.
- Flexible Suspension System: The suspension system of the Oruga Unitrack is designed to provide maximum comfort for the rider, even when traversing rough terrain.
- Robust Braking System: The hydraulic disc brake system of the Oruga Unitrack enables riders to easily control speed and stop the vehicle safely.
- High-Capacity Battery System: The Oruga Unitrack is equipped with a high-capacity lithium-ion battery, allowing for a travel range of up to 100 km on electric power alone and 200 km with hybrid technology.
This motorcycle is also planned to be produced in two versions of 150 kg and 300 kg.
The Oruga Unitrack features an impressive electric motor with a power output of 90 kW (approximately 120 horsepower, 88.5 kW). This motorcycle is also set to be available in two versions: a lighter model weighing 150 kg and a heavier version weighing 300 kg. Depending on the version, both models will have a range of up to 100 km (62 miles) for the electric motorcycle and up to 200 km (124 miles) for the hybrid version. The maximum speed is estimated to be around 97 km/h (60 mph).
However, what truly makes the Unitrack special is its design, particularly the design of its tire tread. With a larger contact area than adventure or off-road motorcycle models currently on the market, it will offer significantly higher traction and grip. This allows the Unitrack to navigate through sand, deep mud, climb mountains, and traverse snow—terrains where conventional motorcycles often struggle.
