About this model
About the Piaggio MP3 500
The Piaggio MP3 500 is the large three-wheeled scooter from Italian manufacturer Piaggio, featuring two independently tilting front wheels. This layout gives the MP3 500 substantially more grip on wet asphalt, tram tracks and in sudden steering inputs than a conventional scooter, and enables the trademark tilt-lock that keeps the vehicle upright at standstill without the rider needing to put a foot down. Power comes from a 493 cc four-stroke single-cylinder engine paired with a CVT automatic. In 2018 the original 500 unit was replaced by the more modern 530 HPE.
The MP3 500 targets commuters who want maximum stability, comfort and weather protection on Dutch motorways and city ring roads. Within Dutch regulations a qualified car-licence holder can ride it, which makes the scooter popular with business commuters. Rivals include the Yamaha TMAX and Honda Forza 750, but the three-wheel layout puts the MP3 in a class of its own. Expect smooth power delivery up to motorway cruising speed, generous storage under the seat, and a kerb weight well above that of a regular scooter.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Verify the tilt-lock (parking brake on the front wheels) actually engages and disengages cleanly; repairs are labour intensive.
- Inspect both front forks for oil leaks and check for play in the tilting linkage bushes; salt and grit accelerate wear.
- Ask for documented variator and V-belt service history; ignored intervals cause noticeable power loss.
- Check the exhaust, side stand and fasteners for corrosion; zinc-plated parts deteriorate quickly in Dutch winters.
- Test all dashboard electronics and powered options; wiring around the handlebar cluster is moisture sensitive.
