"Starting from October 8th 2018, as the online booking campaign for the Vespa Elettrica gets underway, mobility in general, and electric mobility in particular, will never be the same again. Via the www.vespa.com website or the dedicated https://elettrica.vespa.com/ site, customers can secure the privilege of being one of the very first owners of the green version of the iconic scooter of the Piaggio Group (PIA.MI). Widescale marketing of the Vespa Elettrica through the Piaggio dealer network will commence in November to coincide with the EICMA 2018 motorcycle show in Milan. Sales will begin in Europe, to then be extended to the USA and Asia at the start of 2019. The Vespa Elettrica is a contemporary icon of Italian technology in the world, a synonym for advanced connectivity and silence, personalisation and accessibility, respect for the environment and style. These values have always characterised the Vespa and are fully implemented again today in the Vespa Elettrica, confirming Vespa as a pioneering brand on its market. With a power unit delivering top power of 4 kW, the Vespa Elettrica, assisted by the dynamic performance typical of electric engines, outshines a traditional 50ccscooter, particularly as regards acceleration and hill starts. It guarantees easy, agile and enjoyable riding on city roads, even at the very low speeds of congested urban traffic, with the added benefits of absolute silence and absence of vibrations, helping to make cities less chaotic and more livable by avoiding both air and acoustic pollution."
Harley-Davidson continues to make announcements that indicate their willingness to move past the traditional market boundaries of the 116-year-old company in search of new riders.At the all-important EICMA motorsports show in Milan this past week, The Motor Company officially revealed two widely rumored and expected new motorcycles that operate far outside the usual cruiser segment H-D is most associated with. The new bikes follow on the heels of the beginning of series production of the $30,000 LiveWire electric motorcycle, introduced earlier this year. They also come at a time of slipping sales and stock performance for Harley, although there was finally some good news in the most recent quarter as international sales gave the company a boost. Will these two new bikes, aimed at markets and audiences not typically associated with Harley-Davidson, catch on and bring those highly coveted new riders into the fold? It looks like 2020 will be a key year in Harley-Davidson’s long and colorful history.
The SEMA show is a giant gathering of automotive ideas and oddities. In this corner there's a chair made from exhaust parts and spare time. Over here, smiling through broken teeth, a Dodge Challenger and the Nevada state trooper who made sure it was at the show. Down the another hall, there's a motorcycle engine stuffed into a 1970s Honda. You'll find just about anything at SEMA, and if you're there, prepare to do a bunch of walking. There's no shortage of aftermarket parts and wild creations.
Watch the awesome formula drift guys rip it up at SEMA ignited 2019.
Once again Piaggio is back with hot news for all their brands' lovers at Fiera Milano-Rho for the 2019 Edition of EICMA. If you haven't been able to visit them at the biggest two-wheel event in Europe, take the chance to see and touch their 2020 ranges here.
