Sandhogg
THE WAGONSPECSVS THE REST
BUILT FOR SOFT SAND — NOT PARKING LOTS
Four driven wheels.
Deep sand. No sweat.
A 750-watt geared motor on every one of the four wheels — 3,000 watts of true four-wheel drive — on 18-inch soft-sand tires. It hauls your whole beach day through the soft, dry stuff where every other wagon digs in and quits. You just walk.

Who runs a Sandhogg
One wagon, three kinds of hauling. Same 40 feet of soft sand that kills everything else.
SURF FISHERMEN
Full spread — rods, bait cooler, chairs, sand spikes — a half-mile past the crowds without breaking a sweat. Retire the wheelchair-motor franken-cart.
BEACH FAMILIES
Canopy, loaded cooler, chairs, toys — and a tired kid riding on top. One trip from the truck to the water, thumb on the throttle, walking beside it.
RENTAL FLEETS
Stainless hardware, field-serviceable parts, no proprietary battery pack. Fleet pricing for outfitters and resorts: get fleet pricing.

Sandhogg price is the base build; options price up from there. Competitor figures from published listings as of August 2026. Sandhogg is pre-production: the 350 lb figure is an engineering estimate, not a tested result. No unit has been built or load-tested yet, and deep dry dune climbs derate it.
Why $3,900
The boutique electric wagons run $2,996 to $3,600 — and every one of them is a single motor, a single controller, and no brakes beyond letting go of the throttle. Sandhogg is $3,900. That difference buys four driven wheels instead of one, mechanical disc brakes that work with the power off, and about $300 of corrosion hardware you will never see in a photograph. The price is the parts list, not a margin.

FOUR DRIVEN WHEELS, NOT ONE
Kahuna sells an electric conversion kit for $2,696 — on top of their $996 wagon. That is nearly $3,700 to add one motor, with a 90-day electrical warranty. Sandhogg is $3,900 with four of them, mechanical disc brakes, and a year of warranty.
REAL BRAKES
Every powered wagon on the market stops by releasing the throttle. That brake disappears the moment a controller, a connector or a battery faults. Mechanical disc brakes work with the power off, on a wet ramp, loaded.
SALT IS THE REAL ENEMY
316 stainless fasteners, anti-galvanic compound at every joint, sealed bearings, tinned wire, anodized frame. About $300 of the build you will never see in a photograph — and the reason it is still working in year three.
NOT A CHEAPER VERSION
A $3,000 single-motor wagon is not a budget Sandhogg. It is a machine that stops in the soft dry sand above the tide line — the exact forty feet this was built to cross.
Competitor pricing and specifications from published listings, August 2026. Sandhogg is pre-production; performance figures are engineering estimates until a unit is built and tested.
No proprietary battery.
That's the feature.
Every other electric wagon locks you into one proprietary pack that dies in two seasons, and only they can sell you another. Sandhogg runs a standard 48-volt 60Ah LiFePO4 pack in a sealed, drop-out bay. Nothing is glued in, nothing is serialised to your wagon, and when it finally wears out you replace it with any pack that fits the bay. Add a second pack as an option and swapping it takes about a minute — a dead battery becomes a swap, not the end of your day.
Sealed electronics.
A real warranty.
Salt is what kills these machines. Everyone knows it. Almost nobody spends money on it, because it does not photograph.
IP67 CONTROL BOX
Controllers live in a sealed enclosure, not zip-tied under a deck. Every joint is a marine crimp inside adhesive-lined heat shrink, so salt cannot wick up the wire.
316 THROUGHOUT
Not 304. 316 has the molybdenum that resists chloride pitting, and every thread goes together with anti-seize so the machine still comes apart in year three.
SHIELDED MOTORS
Mounted high and inboard, behind the frame and under the deck, with a shroud over each one. Out of the spray and out of the blown sand.
