Piaggio presents an interesting proposal, the NT3 Concept

The Italian company presented this week at the International Motorcycle and Accessories Exhibition (EICMA) a concept that has generated considerable expectations among the media, as the manufacturer has said the NT3 could reach the streets.

This prototype stands out as a versatile car despite its size, this is because the multiple seating arrangements of the cabin can be achieved thanks to the central driving position.

Occupants are also offered an unusually high level of safety, as the car uses an anti-rollover model as the basis of its three-dimensional architecture, so it is assumed that this three-seater is safer than it appears.

The concept can be fitted with two types of configuration, one traditional and one hybrid; in the first case it has a 200 cc engine and a higher-performance one with 300 cc, the latter of which can be coupled to an electric motor.

It is assumed that either option offers a notable level of efficiency, although the claimed figure of 0.33 l/ km seems hard to believe, even in hybrid mode.

In short, the Italian manufacturer indicates that a production version could arrive within three years, however they clarify that the decision has not yet been made.
