A human-powered recumbent tricycle which leans as it turns is disclosed. It consists of a front and a rear section, connected by means of a pivot joint, which is inclined towards the rear section and, as a result, permits the front section to lean as it turns. The front section consists of a frame, drivetrain, seat and front wheel. The drivetrain powers the tricycle in a manner similar to a bicycle. The rear section consists of a frame and two freely-rotating wheels, with a steering control bar, which the rider uses to steer the vehicle, mounted underneath the rear frame. Due to the inclined nature of the pivot joint, the front section leans as it rotates relative to the rear section. To accommodate a number of rider heights, the seat position is adjustable, and the rear frame may carry a number of different structures, such as a cargo container or a set of seats for transporting people.
