„MODERN VESPAS“, the latest models that have been produced by PIAGGIO since 1996, are another big success for the traditional Italian manufacturer. Right from the start these scooters have been (and still are) dominating the registration statistics of many countries - Regardless of their ambitious price.
True heroes are known to be good for a surprise, when you desperately need one. By the early 90s PIAGGIO seemed to have run out of ideas. While the PX and PK models had obviously passed their peak and the COSA was a major disappointment, Japanese manufacturers presented plenty of new and innovative concepts such as the Honda Helix. This is when Pontedera decided to go back to its roots and rely on the myth of the VESPA brand. The cult was successfully revived with the ET2 and ET4 models. Just like the original 1946 model, the MODERN VESPA models come with a self-supporting steel body & small wheels for maximum agility.
