Piaggio MP3 - two front wheels - a revolutionary concept

The Piaggio MP3 continues the revolution with an all-new three wheeler that provides safety, road grip and stability levels that no two-wheeler can match.

The front assembly, with two independent tilting wheels, is more stable than any scooter. Power and performance provide a very satisfying ride.

In town and city traffic the Piaggio MP3 provides unique benefits. The full extent of this three-wheeler's grip and stability is revealed on wet surfaces and adverse riding conditions that can sometimes challenge a traditional two-wheeler. It takes on rough surfaces with ease, with unmatched safety and grip for a vehicle.

Parking is also not an issue with its electro-hydraulic tilt-locking system, which means there is no need to put the vehicle on its stand although one is provided. Simply flick the lean-locking button and apply the parking brake. The system will operate at any angle so you don't need to find a level parking area.

The MP3 requires far less braking distances than any other scooter. The three-disk braking system and front-end road-holding reduce braking distance by 20 per cent compared to the best scooters.

The Piaggio MP3 continues to impress when heading out of town. Its road grip, cornering safety and tilt angle of up to 40 degrees are unprecedented for a scooter.

The Piaggio MP3 is type-approved as a standard two wheeled motorcycle. This means licensing and registration requirements are the same as for a motorcycle.

According to Piaggio's Brand Manager Simon Gloyne, "This innovative vehicle marks the start of a new personal transport revolution from Piaggio."
