Sporting prowess to the fore

Its sporty character gets an additional boost with features such as the new front headlights with LED Daytime Running Lights and distinctive transmission cover. The high-performance engine, high-tech instrumentation and impressive dimensions all add up to a sporty bike that punches well above its weight in the category and is perfect for getting around town.

And that’s all before we even mention its reverse gear, a first in the three-wheel scooter world.
All in all, this is a bike that attracts attention, so prepare to be noticed!

A true super-power

The Piaggio MP3 500 Sport Advanced’s single-cylinder 500 HPE (High Performance Engine) can be summarised in two words: sturdy and reliable. Its power comes from 4 liquid-cooled valves, its electronic injection and Ride-by-Wire multi-map electronic acceleration system which delivers enhanced drivability and improved performance and fuel consumption.

More control than ever

From the comprehensive, modern instrument panel to the multifunctional digital display to PIAGGIO MIA (only as accessory), the multimedia platform which connects your smartphone to the onboard electronics system, it’s all about ensuring drivers have all the information and tools at hand to plan, monitor and control performance. On the technical front, the pair of rear Kayaba gas shock absorbers in bold red deliver outstanding traction and improved stability.

Designed for great riding

Athletic and versatile, the “bad boy” version of the MP3 Piaggio family is characterised by its highly efficient and exclusive gas shock absorbers developed by Kayaba, together with its gritty-looking daisy-shaped front brake discs.

Powerful, safe and comfortable

Plenty of attention has been paid to ensuring driver and passenger comfort. The spacious comfortable seat with its back rest and ergonomic grip handles, together with practical foldaway foot pegs, all makes for a relaxing and pleasurable riding experience. The perfect handlebar-seat-footrest setup is another carefully thought-out detail which makes the Piaggio MP3 a great companion both for touring and everyday riding.

All the right gear

You simply can't talk about the Piaggio MP3 500 Sport Advanced without mentioning its reverse gear, a world first when it comes to three-wheel scooters, and a function which takes driving ease and convenience to another level. Parking is easier than ever, requiring less physical exertion even in the narrowest spots or awkward situations.

Always connected via PIAGGIO MIA

The PIAGGIO MIA multimedia platform connects your smartphone to the onboard electronics system, creating a comprehensive tool that provides all the information you could ever want regarding your bike's performance, trip statistics, news from the Piaggio world and so much more, all instantly accessible via your phone.

Colour options for the 2021 MP3 500 Sport Advanced are: Blu Zaffiro Opaco, Marrone Terra, Argento Cometa and Nero Meteora
