Short answer: Lectric XP Trike2 wins this one, 9.3/10 against 7.9/10, mainly on price and brakes and stability. Liberty Trike Freedom answers with return terms.
What really separates them?
They cost about the same ($199 apart) and are built for different lives. The Lectric is a bike-path and errand trike: 624 Wh, up to 50 miles stated, 14 mph, hydraulic brakes. The Liberty Trike is a mobility trike you can take indoors: it backs up at 3 mph, turns in about 7 to 9 feet and comes apart into two halves, the front one weighing 30 lb. Its battery is half the size (313 Wh, 8 to 20 miles per battery), and its rear brake is a coaster brake. If the question is "how do I get it into the car alone", only the Liberty has an answer. If the question is "how far can I ride", it is the Lectric by a wide margin.

Which one stops and corners better?
Lectric XP Trike2: hydraulic disc brakes, 180 mm rotors, with a parking brake, and a rear differential. Liberty Trike Freedom: front hydraulic caliper with a 160 mm rotor, rear coaster brake; no parking brake is mentioned; no differential is mentioned. On a trike these three parts do most of the safety work: hydraulic brakes need less hand force, a parking brake holds the trike while you get on, and a differential lets the rear wheels turn at different speeds in a corner.
How far and how fast do they go?
