Exclusive UK preview of Piaggio MP3 LT 400cc at Motorexpo
Leading scooter manufacturer Piaggio has today confirmed that it will unveil the latest edition to its MP3 range of three-wheeled vehicles at the 2009 London Motorexpo. The Piaggio MP3 LT is the first ever scooter above 125cc that can be legally ridden with a normal car license – meaning that those without a motorcycle license or CBT can now enjoy the freedom of travelling by scooter. With its exceptional manoeuvrability, the Piaggio MP3 is at home in city streets or out-of- town traffic, equipped with two independent tilting front wheels that ensure cornering stability on any surface.
The MP3 LT is the ideal solution for all those who have thought about purchasing a scooter for their urban transport needs, but are hindered by the fact that they do not hold a motorcycle license. Thanks to its larger front tyre track of 465mm, the Piaggio MP3 LT can be ridden by car license holders and with its larger engine size it offers far greater performance than a 50cc or 125cc models to which car licence holders were previously restricted.
In addition to its revolutionary technology and design features, the MP3 LT is fitted with a brake pedal and a combined braking system guaranteeing shorter stopping distances – 20% shorter than conventional scooters – and offering greater stability on any road conditions.
The Piaggio MP3 LT 400cc is sure to provide you with an unprecedented riding experience – all need is a standard car driving license. Don’t take our word for it – be the first to pre-book a test ride at the 2009 London Motorexpo at Canary Wharf between Monday 8th and Sunday 14th June and discover the joys of this innovative, agile and safer machine for yourself.
