Finally, an electric vehicle “mall cops” love riding.
Simon Malls, one of the largest shopping mall operators in the U.S., has taken a proactive approach to security by deploying the Trikke Positron at over 50 of its properties, transforming the way their security teams operate and providing enhanced mobility, efficiency, and safety for both personnel and visitors. The Positron’s sleek design and powerful 60V all-wheel-drive (AWD) system make it the ideal tool for navigating large, crowded environments like shopping malls, where quick response times and agility are crucial.
The Trikke Positron: A new standard in security.
The Positron is a cutting-edge, electric vehicle designed specifically for security patrols in malls, airports, and campuses. Equipped with solid tires for durability and a low-speed governor that caps speeds at 10 mph, the Positron offers both safety and performance. Unlike other mobility options, such as Segways, the Positron provides superior stability and maneuverability, allowing security personnel to cover more ground and respond quickly to incidents efficiently.
Currently, Simon Malls uses 70 Trikke Positron 60V patrol vehicles across its vast portfolio of shopping centers. These include popular destinations like the Anchorage 5th Avenue Mall in Alaska, the Greenwood Park Mall near Indianapolis, Indiana, and the Del Amo Fashion Mall in Torrance, California. The introduction of the Positron has improved security coverage while providing a quieter, cleaner mode of transportation for security teams.
Security personnel praise the Trikke Positron.
The feedback from Simon Malls security teams has been overwhelmingly positive. Eric Lamey, Area Director of Public Safety at Greenwood Park Mall, shared: “The overall experience with the Positron has been far more superior. The unit is nicer and easier to operate than a Segway in every way. We look forward to our continued partnership.”
At the Del Amo Fashion Mall, Joshua Palacios, Assistant General Manager, echoed similar sentiments, saying, “We absolutely love the product and love the service [Trikke Professional Mobility] provides to our mall.”
A green and efficient solution.
In addition to enhancing security, the Positron is a sustainable, eco-friendly machine. Gildo Beleski, CEO of Trikke Professional Mobility, emphasizes the vehicle’s environmental benefits: “Trikke is a clean and green electric-powered vehicle. Non-emissions, silent, with a very low footprint. It’s ideal for indoor operation around pedestrians and is a great fit for shopping mall environments.”
With Trikke patrol vehicles, Simon Malls has set a new standard for security and sustainability in retail environments. As a result: the Positron has become an indispensable tool for security teams, offering a reliable, efficient, and environmentally conscious solution that ensures the safety of both shoppers and staff.
