EICMA: Peugeot Debuts HYbrid3 Evolution Scooter

Wow, even more hybrid scooters will soon be produced - the technology is finally coming into the two-wheeled world! Peugeot - yes, that Peugeot - has shown their HYbrid3 Evolution at the EICMA show in Milan. It is running the Peugeot 41HP 300c.c. supercharged engine plus two two 3 kW motors in the front wheels, which gives it an overall HP rating of 49. The scooter has a performance of a 500c.c. machine, but the CO2 emissions of a much smaller vehicle. Sound like fun to me!
