Piaggio MP3,
the first scooter in the world with dual front wheel, has revolutionised city
mobility and with 150,000 vehicles sold, it is the undisputed market leader.
The company
has now introduced the Piaggio mp3 500 that comes with ABS and ASR traction
control and offers more comfort for rider and passenger, and greater space with
a brand new style. The new MP3 also comes with a new high-performance engine
with reduced consumption.
In 2006,
with MP3, Piaggio invented a new form of transport by developing and spreading
throughout the world a 3-wheel scooter. The first in the world, Piaggio MP3
combined the comfort and safety of a car with the practicality, simplicity and
fun of a scooter or motor cycle. In Europe, the Piaggio Mp3 500 is available
with two sets of equipment Sport and Business.
The Piaggio
MP3 500 is a completely new vehicle. The Piaggio Mp3 frame has been redesigned.
In particular the new triangulation handlebars-saddle-footplate is larger,
making riding easier and improving vehicle control. And it's not only the rider
who benefits. Conceived as an alternative to the car, the new generation
Piaggio MP3 also provides additional passenger comfort: with increased space,
and a more relaxed sitting position, plus the advantages of a pull-out
footplate. The large compartment under the seat, fitted with 12 volt plug,
courtesy light and mat, has been redesigned for additional uses, due to the
regular, almost rectangular shape, without indentations or partitions, so every
square centimetre can be used, for example to store two full-face helmets or a laptop holder. As
before the seat opens electrically with power-assisted shock absorber for
smooth, safe opening. Il flat streamlined tail for an easily assembled box
(just one of the many accessories available), further increasing the already
load capacity of the new Piaggio MP3.
