Trikke Positron vehicles support security teams across one of motorsports’ biggest stages
When IndyCar returned to the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach in April, Trikke Professional Mobility was along for the ride, continuing a growing partnership that began during the 2024 season.
Now in 2026, that partnership continues across multiple events, including the upcoming Indianapolis 500, where speed, coordination, and mobility are critical behind the scenes.
At Long Beach, two new Positron Version 3 units were deployed as part of the ongoing partnership, supporting the IndyCar security team as they navigated one of the most complex event environments in motorsports.
Mobility that matches the moment
For Director of Safety and Security Brian Mahone, the value shows up immediately in the field.
“You’re elevated. You can see over the crowd. It gives us more visibility and lets us get places faster than walking,” he says. “We’re constantly moving between pit lane, the medical center, the media center, the paddock, and our trailer. Being able to do that quickly is huge.”
That constant movement defines race-day operations. Security teams are circulating, responding, and repositioning across large, crowded spaces where traditional vehicles can struggle.
That is where Trikke patrol movement fits naturally.
Built for large-scale event environments
At a venue like Long Beach, where tens of thousands of fans fill a multi-block footprint, mobility is about efficiency, access, and control.
Mike Bates, part of the IndyCar security team, puts it simply.
“Mobility is everything. These are nimble. You can move anywhere. Even in a crowd, you can still navigate easily.”
Compared to golf carts or gas-powered scooters, the Positron platform allows teams to move continuously without the same limitations in maneuverability or availability.
“It is not about going fast,” Bates says. “It is about getting from point A to point B.”
A natural extension of the operator
For trained personnel, many with law enforcement or motorcycle backgrounds, the learning curve is minimal.
After just a few events, the vehicles become second nature.
“It starts to feel like part of your body,” Bates says. “The way it moves, you move with it.”
That connection matters in high-demand environments where response time, awareness, and control all work together.
Visibility, validation, and scale
For Trikke Professional Mobility, the IndyCar partnership is about proving performance in one of the most demanding live event settings in the country.
“IndyCar is the pinnacle of motorsports in the U.S.,” says Gildo Beleski, CEO of Trikke Professional Mobility. “Being part of these events gives us exposure, but it also validates our technology alongside everything else you see here.”
In an environment filled with advanced systems, the simplicity and effectiveness of the platform stand out.
“It fits perfectly,” Beleski says. “You have people, vehicles, and equipment moving everywhere. The Trikke works naturally in that space.”
From Long Beach to Indianapolis
As the season continues, Trikke vehicles will remain part of the operational landscape at IndyCar events across the country.
From the streets of Long Beach to the brickyard of the Indianapolis 500, the goal is the same.
More visibility. More control. More ground covered.
Before agencies deploy new patrol equipment, they want proof—in real environments, with real officers, solving real problems.
That’s exactly what Trikke Professional Mobility’s social channels deliver every day.
Where patrol performance becomes visible
Across airports, downtown districts, campuses, and major events, Trikke Positron patrol vehicles are already in use.
On our social channels, you’ll see:
Officers navigating dense crowds with speed and control
Security teams covering large properties more efficiently
Real deployments at major venues and public events
First-hand reactions from officers and command staff
This is where “force multiplier” stops being a phrase—and becomes something you can actually watch in action.
Built for how agencies actually evaluate equipment
Trikke Mobility’s social content focuses on:
Real-world deployment footage
Officer feedback and reactions
Multi-environment use cases
Ongoing field performance
Because seeing consistent results builds confidence faster than any pitch.
More than visibility—it’s perspective
The patrol movement isn’t just about getting from point A to point B.
It’s about:
Increasing officer visibility
Improving response capability
Reducing fatigue over long shifts
Creating more approachable, community-facing patrols
And those benefits show up clearly when you see the vehicles in use.
Follow the field, not the feed

How agencies and professionals are putting mobile patrol vehicles to work in real environments.
Several April stories from the Trikke Mobility blog archives highlight how patrol mobility shows up in practice, from campus policing to small-city departments to professional feedback from the field.
Together, they show a simple pattern: agencies try it, use it, and decide whether it earns a place in their patrol strategy.
Dallas College P.D.: campus patrol goes mobile
At Dallas College, police adopted Trikke Positron patrol vehicles to improve mobility across a large campus environment. Officers now move more efficiently through pedestrian-heavy areas while maintaining visibility and accessibility—two priorities in campus policing.
In Somerton, Arizona, officers incorporated Trikke Positrons into their patrol strategy to expand coverage and improve day-to-day mobility. For a smaller department, the ability to move quickly through neighborhoods and public spaces adds flexibility without relying entirely on traditional patrol vehicles.
Beyond specific deployments, industry professionals have shared their experiences using Trikke patrol vehicles in the field. Their feedback consistently centers on visibility, mobility, and ease of use—factors that influence both adoption and day-to-day performance.
These snapshots from the archives show how Trikke mobility is moving into everyday use, and how real-world experience continues to shape modern patrol strategies.
A rapid-response solution built for large, crowded environments where ambulances can’t always reach quickly.
When a medical emergency happens at one of the largest airports in the United States, response time is everything. At Denver International, Denver Health Paramedics respond across a massive footprint that includes long concourses, crowded terminals, and parking facilities with more than 51,000 spaces — an environment where distance, crowds, and access points can slow traditional ambulance response.
To improve mobility across the airport, Denver Health deployed Trikke Positron patrol vehicles so paramedics can reach patients faster while carrying critical medical equipment.
According to Denver Health Paramedic Lieutenant Tom Stoffer, the size and layout of the airport present constant mobility challenges for emergency responders.
“The footprint of the terminal and concourses is quite large with the terminal measuring 2.6 million square feet and at least one of our concourses is a mile long,” Stoffer said. “The sheer size of the airport and thousands of passengers to navigate through presents significant challenges to providing timely responses to medical emergencies.”
“First responders don’t need a generic platform — they need a platform that works for their specific job.”

The three-wheel electric Positron allows paramedics to move quickly through crowded areas, narrow corridors, elevators, and parking structures.
“The Trikke capably carries all our equipment which allows our airport paramedics to provide the same level of care patients would receive if an ambulance responded,” Stoffer said. “Even with this load carrying ability, the Trikke is very nimble allowing us to effectively navigate through the facility with ease.”
In addition to the terminal and concourses, paramedics also use their Trikkes in multi-level parking garages and exterior areas of the airport.
“Trikkes have plenty of torque to climb the ramps in our parking garages and are able to utilize small pedestrian passageways to allow for quicker response to emergencies,” Stoffer said.
To support paramedic operations, Trikke Professional Mobility developed custom brackets that allow oxygen tanks, cardiac monitors, and medical bags to be securely mounted to the vehicle without affecting performance or maneuverability.
“First responders don’t need a generic platform — they need a platform that works for their specific job,” said Trikke CEO Gildo Beleski. “If paramedics need oxygen, monitors, and medical bags on the vehicle, then the vehicle has to be built to carry that equipment safely and securely. That’s why we develop custom solutions for agencies. The goal is simple: give them the mobility they need without taking away the tools they rely on to do their job.”
For large environments like airports, rapid EMS mobility can make a critical difference. With the ability to carry advanced life support equipment and navigate crowded areas quickly, the Trikke Positron allows paramedics to arrive sooner, begin patient care faster, and extend emergency response coverage across the airport.
