One machine.
Three looks.
All yours.
Electric by design
4,000W peak brushless power. A removable 72V lithium battery. Shaft drive. The same core equipment in every finish — choose the look that feels like you.
Orange / BlackSame equipment. Same $990 reserved price.
02 / SHAFT DRIVE
Built around a shaft drive.
Mechanical drive through a shaft rather than an exposed drive chain. It’s one of the defining pieces of the Dirt Republic platform.
03 / YOUR FINISH
Your look. Your Dirt Republic.
Orange / Black. Red, white and blue Patriot. Earth-toned Camo. All three share the same offered equipment and launch pricing.

Make room for your next ride
One platform.
Your kind of good time.
Closed-course sessions. Wide-open weekends. A change of scenery. You don’t need to be a hardcore trail rider to want a different kind of fun.
01 / THE AFTER-HOURS ESCAPE
Leave the ordinary behind.
Clock out. Switch things up. From permitted private riding areas to a weekend away, make room for something that isn’t the usual routine.
02 / THE WEEKEND CREW
Make it a shared moment.
The friendly rivalry, the finish, the conversation afterwards. Build a day around the people you want there.
03 / A DIFFERENT VIEW
Your kind of escape.
Go for the scenery. Stay for the good times. A quieter corner, a wider view and a little more time away from the everyday.
Illustrative lifestyle concepts, not customer-use photographs. Use only in suitable, permitted riding areas. Public-road approval is not represented.

Before you reserve
Good questions.
Clear answers.
A different kind of ride deserves a clear explanation. Here is what the reservation means and what comes next.
What does my $5 reserve?
Access to the $990 reserved price on Kickstarter. This price is only available to people who reserved, and only for the first 24 hours after launch. The standard Kickstarter price is $1,499 and the planned retail price is $2,199. When the campaign opens you get a private link to the reserved-price pledge. The $5 is a separate reservation fee and is not deducted from the $990.
Is the $5 refundable?
Yes. The $5 reservation is fully refundable on request. Include your order number and the email used at checkout when contacting support. Refunds are not automatic. This also applies if the campaign is delayed or cancelled. Any later Kickstarter pledge has separate terms.
Will I be charged $990 automatically?
No. Backing the campaign is a separate decision you make on Kickstarter with the full product details in front of you. No physical item ships with the $5 reservation, and there is no subscription.
When does the Kickstarter launch?
The planned launch is December 1, 2026 at 12:00 AM Eastern Time (New York). Your private link arrives by email that day. The reserved-price window ends December 2 at 12:00 AM Eastern Time. The campaign is planned to run for 30 days.
What happens if I miss the 24-hour window?
The reserved price closes and the standard Kickstarter price of $1,499 applies. Your $5 reservation fee remains refundable on request. There is no quantity cap on the pre-launch reservation offer; access is time-limited.
Are all three looks the same price?
Yes. Orange / Black, Patriot and Camo are all offered at the same $990 reserved price. The same equipment is included across all three; the difference is the finish.
Are the battery and charger included?
Yes. The offer includes a removable 72V, 130Ah lithium battery and a matching charger. US and EU plug options are planned. Exact electrical ratings, connector details and other regional options will be listed with the campaign.
How much assembly is required?
The delivery plan is being finalized. Both the printed owner’s manual and the printed delivery & setup guide are included. The campaign will specify the assembly state and any preparation required before you pledge. Do not assume the pictured hardware kit is a final packing list.
What power, speed and range can I expect?
The specified motor output is 4,000W peak. The stated 80km/h top speed and 170km range are unverified supplier claims, not measured Dirt Republic results. In particular, 80km/h has not been substantiated for this 4kW peak configuration. Final results depend on the tested vehicle, rider load, speed, surface and conditions.
How long does charging take?
The supplier states approximately five hours. That estimate requires validation with the actual charger, battery and power source. A five-hour full charge on a standard 120V US outlet is not guaranteed. Use only the supplied or approved compatible charger.
Can I ride in the city or on public roads?
The brand is for more than woodland riding: suitable private paved areas and closed courses may be part of the experience too. However, public-road legality has not been confirmed. Check the permitted use, rider requirements and local rules. Urban imagery is not proof of road approval.
What is included with my kart?
The offer includes your chosen kart, removable battery, matching charging equipment, printed owner’s manual and printed delivery & setup guide. Final setup hardware and delivery configuration will be itemized on Kickstarter. See what’s in the box ↗
Are the pictures of the finished product?
Images on this page are AI-assisted product and lifestyle visualizations, not customer-use photographs or evidence of completed performance tests. Component, charger, battery, hardware and booklet images are design concepts. Final manufacturing details may differ.
When will it ship, and is delivery included?
Worldwide shipping is planned. Shipping is charged separately later; available destinations, shipping costs, applicable taxes and estimated delivery dates will be presented with the campaign before you decide to pledge. Production and delivery dates depend on validation, manufacturing and order volume. See the roadmap ↗
