Piaggio MP3 Sport 500 HPE
Piaggio created a trifecta of innovation, function, and form with the MP3. The three wheels are able to lean like a sport bike and even have the ability to lock for stopping and parking (it even disengages once you start moving again!). The ultimate goal of this beast (Cerberus?), is to create an immersive driving experience with added safety and stability.
The MP3 provides ABS (Anti-lock Brakes), ASR (Traction Control!), multiple driving modes, and a 38.8hp liquid cooled engine. The power is sent to an automatic CVT transmission, so there is no shifting required.
How does it ride? Well, it feels a lot like a two wheeled scooter. Different, but in a very appealing manner. The 500cc engine boasts much more power than most "big" scoots and the safety features are hard to find anywhere else. We have Matte Black color in stock currently!
