Piaggio must be careful in the near future, with a European giant that seems close to putting it in crisis.
Scooters are among the most sought-after means of transport around the world, with their practicality in the city making them increasingly popular and sought-after. There Piaggio it is one of the best-known brands, so much so that it has been able to design some iconic models such as the Vespa, what can probably be considered the scooter par excellence.
Over the years, this brand has had to fight against a series of increasingly determined rivals ready to oust it from its kingdom and dominion. There Piaggio it has therefore tried to establish itself with interesting innovations, so much so that its scooters have often been a dedication for important events.
An example was when the Piaggio showed the world the Vespa in honor of Disney with Mickey Mouse colors. This year, moreover, the 946 Dragon, a scooter created to pay homage to the entry into the year of the Dragon, at least according to the Chinese calendar.
However, Piaggio knows well that it is not the only large company that has decided to design a series of high-quality scooters, so much so that there are many rivals on the market. The leaders in sales in Italy are for example Honda’s SH range scooters, but now the danger no longer comes only from Japan, but crazy news is coming from a European nation bordering the Bel Paese.
