A new concept of mobility that transcends the purely technical aspect of transport to revolutionise the city streets.
For 2010, the MP3 range has been updated in both style and technical content: the medium engine size has now grown to 300 cc to deliver more low-end torque and improve fuel economy.
Launched in 2006, the Piaggio MP3 astonished the world with its two independently sprung, tilting front wheels: an absolutely innovative technological solution that redefined the very concept of dynamic stability.
For 2010, the mid-sized engine variant of the MP3 has grown to 300 cc. The larger new engine capacity offers significant benefits in terms of both performance, with more low-end urge, and fuel consumption. Across the range, new front and rear light clusters emphasise the sleekness of the forms and add a touch of elegance to the unmistakable silhouette of the new MP3 family.
The new 300 cc engine with electronic fuel injection delivers 22.5 hp at 6,500 rpm, and produces a maximum torque of 23,2 Nm at 6,500 rpm: values that are better than the output offered by the 250 unit replaced by the new engine. These figures translate to greater responsiveness and even more sparkling performance, making the Piaggio MP3 300 ie capable of long range commuting in complete comfort.
The 300 cc version of the MP3 introduces a groundbreaking technological first for its class: state of the art Ride by Wire technology for electronic throttle control. On the new Piaggio MP3 300 ie, there is in fact no mechanical connection between the throttle grip and the throttle valve located in the intake duct, which modulates the amount of air mixed with the fuel. The result of the electronic control is an optimised air/fuel mixture, which turns into smoother power delivery and therefore into enhanced riding comfort.
Piaggio MP3 300 ie boasts elegant styling and premium equipment for class beating comfort. The elegant looks are emphasised by a car-like grille, premium trim, a blue-tinted windscreen and the practical rear grab-handle with incorporated passenger backrest.
The new headlights, now with silver backing, and the new taillight emphasise the sleek forms of the MP3, as well as ensuring optimum visibility in both daylight and night conditions.
Comfort is guaranteed by the wide, ergonomic saddle, designed to ensure the maximum space for both rider and passenger, as well as the large windshield that provides excellent protection against wind and rain. Last but not least, the helmet compartment, accessible from both the saddle and the rear hatch, offers unbeatable space, with an incredible 65 litre capacity for carrying objects up to a metre in length.
