Milan, 07 August 2020 – The Piaggio Group (PIA.MI) has been awarded the tender put out in the EU by Poste Italiane S.p.A. (PST.MI) for the supply of 5,000 three-wheel thermal scooters to be used in postal delivery services. The contract is worth an overall amount of more than 31 million euro.
The vehicle in question is the new scooter, Piaggio 3W- Delivery 125cc Euro 5, designed and developed by the Piaggio Group specifically to meet the transportation and delivery requirements of corporate fleets and typical delivery needs.
