The new MP3 YOURBAN is set to hit the UK, providing city slickers with the ultimate method of urban transport.

Launched in 2006, the Piaggio MP3 series has set the world alight, with over 80,000 sold globally so far, and now the addition of the new MP3 YOURBAN takes the range a step further. Redesigned to incorporate all the advantages of the quirky and striking MP3 design, with a cooler, lighter and more compact chassis, this is THE vehicle to carve your way through city traffic.

Available in a 125cc and 300cc engine, both with electronic injection, the MP3 YOURBAN stands out for its superior equipment and finish. The model is designed with the scooter commuter in mind, and the lighter, sleeker, more compact frame is also ideal for women looking for a safe yet fun means of transportation.

The MP3’s two independently sprung, tilting front wheels are truly a winning formula, marking an entirely innovative technological solution that redefined the very concept of dynamic stability. Now the MP3 YOURBAN makes Piaggio three-wheeled scooter riding more enjoyable and – with a reduced braking distance of 20% – more stable that ever. It’s an ideal solution for anyone looking for alternative methods of transport and its increased stability makes it perfectly suited to the wet UK weather.

125cc and 300cc LT

The MP3 YOURBAN 125cc version can be ridden on a CBT (Compulsory Basic Training), and to offer music to the ears of anyone wanting to just get on and go, the 300cc LT version can be ridden on car license – so no bike or scooter license needed!

Available in three colours: Nero Cosmo (Black), Grigio Orione (Grey), Bianco-Perla (White), the YOURBAN 125ie is priced at £4,749 (exc. OTR) and the YOURBAN 300ie LT is £5,699 (exc. OTR).
