In 1946 Piaggio created the iconic Vespa as a post-war transport solution, 60 years on and the company has just re-invented the wheel, or to be precise it’s added an extra one.
The Piaggio MP3 is built along side the Vespa in the city of Pontedera, located in northern Italy.
This is not your father’s Vespa, however. 
The photos show how the complex front-end mechanism allows for leaning into corners.
From all reports we have read, the Piaggio MP3 has only one drawback - the price.
The larger 250cc version will set you back about 4,300 British pounds (about 6,900 US dollars).
