NEW PIAGGIO MP3 310
THE LIGHTER, MORE AGILE VERSION OF THE ORIGINAL THREE-WHEEL SCOOTER IS UNVEILED WITH AN ALL-NEW DESIGN, ADOPTING THE SPORTY STYLE OF ITS BIGGER SIBLINGS THE 400 AND 530, AND A HOST OF INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGICAL FEATURES: THE NEW 310CC ENGINE MAKES ITS DÉBUT
26 September 2024 – The universe of the Piaggio MP3, the inimitable first three-wheel scooter in the world, continues to evolve and improve: following the début of the new “maxi” versions with engine capacity of 400 and 530 cc respectively in 2022, the Piaggio MP3 310 has landed – the third generation of the lightest, most agile vehicle which has revolutionised urban mobility, setting new standards of comfort, safety and riding pleasure!
The Piaggio MP3 310 is a compact, sporty, dynamic vehicle that maintains the high levels of comfort and technical content that are typical of the bigger GT scooters.
But the new Piaggio MP3 310 makes these qualities available to everyone: it can be ridden with a car driving licence, thanks to the exclusive Piaggio three-wheel technology. The front articulated quadrilateral suspension system and the double front wheel are unique and distinctive elements that make riding the Piaggio MP3 an absolutely unique experience, with more cornering stability than any other scooter, and excellent road handling that can be felt on wet asphalt or in poor grip conditions.
The compact dimensions and handling of the Piaggio MP3 310 can be appreciated both in manoeuvring whilst stationary – making parking super easy – and whilst moving, where it boasts enhanced agility. The front end is extremely precise in riding and even more communicative.
The Piaggio MP3 310 is equipped with an all-new engine, the latest in the extraordinary HPE (High Performance Engine) : Type-approved according to the Euro 5+ standard, the 310 hpe engine benefits from an increased cubic capacity ( 310 cc instead of the 278 cc of the previous engine), as well as various features specifically designed to enhance the riding experience, not only in terms of performance, but also with regard to the ride comfort and rideability – all combined with reduced fuel consumption.
A unique style for the entire range, inspired by the automotive world
The front has been completely redesigned, and is now broader and more protective, with a new horizontal front light cluster with full LED technology. In the centre of the shield is a smaller, sportier air intake, characterised by a three-dimensional honeycomb grille. Underneath these is a vertical spoiler, the product of a careful aerodynamic studies: combined with the all-new side deflectors, this provides greater stability and contributes to a higher maximum speed. The windscreen is also new with a shape designed to guarantee maximum protection with limited bulk.
The vehicle also nods to a number of the latest trends in automotive design, from the striking, sporty front end to the mudguards – which feature body-coloured elements in the Sport version – and the rims, which feature a new design with five split spokes: another clear reference to the luxury sport saloon world.
The bold front is offset by a sleek, streamlined tailpiece, which elegantly integrates the comfortable passenger grab bar and ends with the modern full-LED rear light cluster.
Comfort and functionality
The Piaggio MP3 310 is also equipped with a totally new user interface. At the centre, a large instrument panel with a 5-inch LCD display provides all the necessary information: the digital speedometer and the rev counter are visible in the centre, with the total and trip odometer, air temperature, digital clock, fuel level and coolant temperature indicators, along with the ice danger icon and “service” icon. The panel displays a wide range of information regarding the trip, which can be selected using the MODE button on the right-hand control block: highest speed, average speed, instantaneous consumption, average consumption, battery range and charge level. The warning lights, on the other hand, monitor all the functions such as “injection check”, fuel reserve, oil pressure, ABS activation and immobilizer. The handlebar and dashboard controls have been repositioned, and are now more practical and functional.
Above the instrument panel, meanwhile, is a practical glove compartment with a drawer and USB connection inside, ideal for recharging a smartphone and any other enabled device.
Remaining on the subject of the user interface, the Piaggio MP3 310 features the keyless system, which enables the ignition to be switched on without having to insert the traditional key, simplifying all the operations like starting the engine, opening the seat and the fuel door and locking the steering column, all of which can be done with the remote control conveniently in your pocket. The classic ignition switch with lock is replaced by a practical knob: to start the vehicle, simply press it (which activates the start enable function) and turn it to the ON position. Starting the engine is accomplished as usual with the button located on the right-hand control bock.
The saddle, with seating on two separate levels, has a new foam structure designed to improve comfort, and is shaped to allow easy and safe contact with the ground and to guarantee adequate lumbar support for the rider. The passenger position is laid back and relaxed, thanks in part to the practical fold-out foot boards which, when closed, integrate perfectly in the fairing.
The under-seat compartment is extremely spacious, and easily accommodates a full-face helmet or two demi-jet helmets, as well as other objects. The saddle has a spring to keep it in the open position. A practical and discrete concealed bag hook finds a place integrated into the leg shield back plate.
Versions and colours
The new Piaggio MP3 310 is available in two different versions: the Piaggio MP3 310 and the Piaggio MP3 310 Sport, the latter distinguished by even sportier finishes and details.
PIAGGIO MIA
Always connected to your smartphone
With Piaggio MIA, you can connect your smartphone to your bike’s electronics system via Bluetooth and access a host of exclusive functions designed to make your riding experience more enjoyable and stimulating than ever.
Once you’ve downloaded the special Piaggio app from the App Store or Google Play then paired it with your bike, you’ll see all your message and incoming calls alerts displayed on the instrument panel. The system enables you to manage your calls via the MODE button on the right-hand command panel, and to use your phone’s voice commands to make calls or listen to a playlist.
In addition to being able to manage calls and music via the vehicle’s digital instruments, the multimedia PIAGGIO MIA platform gives you access to a host of useful data on your phone via the app, regarding the trip done and the condition of your bike. On top of all this, it saves your location when you turn off the dashboard, providing handy assistance when you’re trying to pick out your scooter in a crowded part of town.
The app can also provide engine revs, actual power and torque output, current and average fuel consumption, battery voltage and riding style evaluation. All data generated is registered on the app and can be viewed on a trip-by-trip basis directly on your smartphone via intuitive infographics. The app also pinpoints Piaggio assistance centres and includes a handy configurable schedule to remind you when services are due.
PRACTICAL, DYNAMIC, LIGHTWEIGHT … AND STYLISH
The Piaggio Medley creates a new class of high-wheel scooters that combines the advantages of an agile and lightweight scooter with those of a larger and more powerful high-wheel bike.
New Piaggio i-get engine
The Piaggio Medley features the latest evolution of the Piaggio i-get 125 engine. iquid-cooled, with 4-valve distribution and electronic injection. This type of engine gives the Medley even more liveliness and agility in traffic, improving performance and making it among the most powerful in its class.
Comfort first
Not only agile, practical and dynamic, the Piaggio Medley is also comfortable and offers plenty of storage. The combination of lightness and functionality makes it ideal for everyday trips around town, while the seat opens up by an electric button handily positioned on the handlebar.
Underseat compartment
The rear of the bike is distinctly tapered, with surprisingly compact dimensions, given the spacious 36-litre underseat compartment that can hold two full-face helmets, something not often found in a high-wheeler. This is achieved by the smart design of the tail and repositioning the fuel tank in the centre of the footwell, a solution that not only increases storage capacity but also means you can refuel without leaving your seat. Another advantage is that the improved mass centralisation delivers a better road riding experience.
Medley and Medley S
Piaggio Medley prefers more classic and elegant colours combined with a brown seat, matt bronze finishes and silver grey wheel rims. The 'wraparound' front end blends perfectly with the 'slim' rear, giving it an even more dynamic and functional look. The Piaggio Medley S is distinguished by its sporty matt black finishes; this sportiness is accentuated by the red shock absorber springs and a shade that also appears on the seat seams. To emphasise its sporty soul, the callipers are adorned in gold and the discs acquire a 'wave' profile.
URBAN CROSSOVER
More than two decades on from the 2001 launch of the first generation Piaggio Beverly, the latest model gets a makeover but retains the sporty grittiness and elegant design that have shaped the history of urban mobility. In their 300-cc and 400-cc versions, both the stylish Beverly and its more sporting Beverly S counterpart combine the dynamic qualities and grip of a high-wheeler with the exuberance and long-distance comfort of a great Tourer.

The revolutionary nature of GITA and KILO
The Piaggio Group continue to shape the future of mobility with the creation of GITA and KILO, the first Piaggio Fast Forward products.
Introducing GITA and KILO, the first projects developed by Piaggio Fast Forward (PFF), a newly-established company overseen by Piaggio and based in the U.S. with a goal of pioneering the future of light mobility. Piaggio aims to explore the evolution of how the world gets around by thinking about the future, expanding its vision to include a much broader range of technological solutions compared to its current core business.
The revolutionary nature of GITA and KILO is in their ability to provide support to people in the various activities that characterise their movements in everyday life, extending the limited operating range and carrying capacity of humans. They are, in fact, conceived as a true platform for mobility, which can be customised and integrated to meet different needs in multiple scenarios.
Michele Colaninno, President of PFF, explains: “To truly understand people and their habits to meet their needs, this is what led us to create GITA. We understood that we have to create products in line with the needs of tomorrow’s humans, and we will do that through humans. The success story is made up of PFF people and teams, who are the living proof. They are young, enthusiastic, with no fear of challenges, a melting pot of cultures and professionalism who together have created a perfect merging of robotics, engineering and design.”
Roberto Colaninno, Chairman and CEO of the Piaggio Group , declared: “The Piaggio Group, through the creation of PFF, looks again to the future, to young people, to the future generations, and doesn’t want to merely be ready to face the challenges of this increasingly complex mobility scenario, but wants to be leading agent of this change. Innovation, research and curiosity are the basis of this project and are its main drivers.”
GITA (which means “short trip” in Italian) is an intelligent autonomous vehicle designed to support humans. It can carry up to 18 kg and both observe and communicate. Reaching speeds of up to 35 km/hour it is able to follow a human operator and can also move autonomously in a mapped environment.
KILO is the big brother of GITA and can transport up to 100 kg in its spacious 120-litre compartment.
The Piaggio Museum earns a place in the Tripadvisor Hall of Fame
The Museum has been consistently recognised by TripAdvisor® every year since 2015, thanks to its ability to win the hearts of the many guests, 700,000 of whom have visited Pontedera (in the province of Pisa) from all over the world since the museum opened. Having received this coveted award for the fifth consecutive year, the Piaggio Museum earns a place in the TripAdvisor® Hall of Fame. TripAdvisor® is the world's biggest travel platform, present on 49 markets and boasting approximately 490 million unique visitors per month with its network of sites.
The large exhibition spaces within the Museum, inaugurated in 2000 and significantly refurbished in 2018, extend across 5000 m2 and are located in former industrial warehouses that, elegantly restored, now house more than 250 historic vehicles. Vehicles that represent more than one hundred years of emotions, dreams and projects, all of which have accompanied the economic and social development of Italy.
The Vespa collection, one of the best-known and loved Italian brands, attracts fans from all over the world and is flanked by collections dedicated to the Piaggio and Ape brands and to the motorcycle and racing history of the Aprilia, Gilera and Moto Guzzi brands.
Names that have written key chapters in the history of the motorcycle and that, together, boast an extraordinary 104 world titles across the various motorcycle racing specialisms. From the heroic machines of 1909 (the year Gilera was founded) or of 1921 (the birth of Moto Guzzi), all the way to the extraordinary Aprilia bikes belonging to Valentino Rossi, Max Biaggi, Loris Capirossi, Manuel Poggiali, all World Championship winners.
Alongside these valuable pieces, some unique and unrepeatable, is the entire history of mobility – from trains to planes, from cable ways to marine motors – covered by a company that is part of Italian history.
