PIAGGIO FLY 150
Piaggio has posted some excellent results in the first quarter
of 2011, taking out the coveted number 1 spot for scooter sales in
the first quarter of 2011.
"The Fly 150 continues to impress with its success" commented
Piaggio Sales Manager Gavan Moody.
"Not only was it the top selling scooter in the category for the
first quarter, it was also the 7th highest selling Road Bike
overall, with an incredible 348 % increase in sales over last
year"!
The ever popular Zip 50 was the 2nd highest selling scooter, and
the 9th highest selling Road Bike overall, and the LX50 also made
it into the top 10 in 8th position.
"Increased petrol prices would have no doubt contributed to the
upswing in scooter sales, but at the end of the day consumers
recognise that when making the lifestyle choice of purchasing a
scooter, they are far better off with a premium brand such as a
Piaggio / Vespa, which will not only provide peace of mind, and
excellent re-sale value, but many years of trouble free
scootering"

About Piaggio
The Piaggio company, nestled in the Tuscan countryside between
Florence and Pisa, first invented scooters in 1946 when it produced
the first-ever Vespa and helped liberate a war-torn Italy. Vespa
remains the iconic scooter brand with its unique metal-bodied

classic Vespa brand, the sporty Gilera brand and the contemporary
Piaggio brand. In Australia, PS Importers is the sole importer of
this iconic and popular range
