This one has a convertible top that folds into the case behind the passenger's backrest. Note the windscreen wiper. It will be available with the 125, 200, and 400 cc Piaggio engines.

I had heard that inside Piaggio there was a re-org of projects. I geard one three-wheeler was enough. Also, This will be Gilera's last scooter. All of their scooter projects have been pushed to Piaggio or Aprilia. Alsthough I don't know how reliable the source is.

Piaggio PAM
It's electric, it's a prototype, it's a bit silly ... but Piaggio seems to have solved the 2WD problem, presumably by using electric motors in each of the rear wheels.

I'm calling it the M3P!

Yikes, that seat looks to have the potential for an...ahem...shall we say...unwelcome intrusion around the posterior after a particularly big bump!
