Piaggio is based in Pontedera, Italy. The name Piaggio is synonymous with freedom in daily life. Piaggio offers a complete range of original, intelligent and creative solutions for urban mobility, which combine ease of use and functionality with the fascination of Italian design. Since 1884 the Piaggio name has stood for innovation, quality and superior performance. It is now also the parent company for Aprilia, Moto Guzzi and Vespa.
The Piaggio X10 500 is a technological tour de force, with stepless electrically adjustable suspension, ABS, traction control and full multimedia capability, including highly advanced engine readouts if you own an iPhone.
Piaggio claims the Typhoon can achieve an astonishing 90 mpg from its tiny 124cc single-cylinder engine. Another notable figure is its price. At just $2699, the Typhoon is a natural choice for anyone looking for cheap, reliable transportation.

Hmmm... Are you skeptical about this three-wheeled thing? Well, here's a nice anecdote that may shed some light as to what Piaggio was thinking when they built this odd-looking conveyance.
Pornography is a matter of geography, or so they say. Turn on Italian TV at prime time and you'll be showered with a myriad of game shows whose only purpose seems to be showing leggy go-go dancers strut their stuff in borderline X-rated fashion.
The red-headed stepchild of motorcycledom, scooters are a strong alternative to the costs of car ownership and public transit. We decided to pit three of these gas sippers against each other - the Honda PCX, Piaggio Typhoon 125 and Yamaha Zuma 125.
