Piaggio hybrid scooter

Scooter News More News on Piaggio HyS Piaggio Australia announce plans for the HyS hybrid range of scooters in 2008. Piaggio Australia Italian manufacturer Piaggio, the maker of Vespa, has launched an environmentally friendly hybrid scooter by mechanically and electronically linking a traditional combustion engine with an electric motor. The new design, which has a working title of HyS (Hybrid Scooter), allows the petrol engine to work as 'normal', but whenever the rider needs to accelerate more aggressively, the electric motor kicks in, providing about 85 per cent extra performance. The grouping of petrol and electric provides significant reductions in fuel consumption and C02 emissions.
