Since its inception in 1997, the Piaggio Liberty has been a milestone of mobility for the company. It’s blend of lightness, style, and ease of use has made the Liberty a popular choice for riders around the world. The Liberty 50 is powered by Piaggio’s 49.9cc i-get (Italian Green Experience Technology) Single-cylinder four-stroke engine and carries 1.58 gallons of fuel giving riders substantial range between fill-ups. Under seat storage, large wheels, and a smooth CVT transmission add to the ease and convenience of daily use with the Liberty 50. The Liberty is also available in 150 and 150 Sport variants.

Piaggio MP3 Sport 500

piaggio

The two front wheels – and patented suspension system that connects them – combine safety, simplicity, and practicality, while still managing to deliver the fun of a motorcycle on twisty roads. From drivers looking for a more practical safe alternative to four wheels, to the experienced motorcyclist, all are able to appreciate the advantages and technical features of the Piaggio MP3. The MP3 also boasts the latest in Piaggio technology from three-channel ABS, to traction control and ride modes, as well as a lock out for the front suspension to balance the machine at standstill and the inclusion of a reverse gear. 

Piaggio Wi-Bike Active

piaggio

Piaggio Wi-bike goes beyond the concept of an assisted-pedal bicycle and approaches the market as a vehicle that interprets the most progressive mobility needs at 360 degrees, no longer intended simply as the ability to move about, but also as the presence and sharing of information over the most modern network and interaction forms thanks to PMP (Piaggio Multimedia Platform) technology. The Wi-Bike Active has three power modes, a 75-mile (120 km) range, satellite tracking with anti-theft technology, and a top speed of 28 mph.
