Piaggio MP3 Hybrid 300ie

Yes, this is getting interesting. The Piaggio designs seem very well considered. The fuel efficiency is amazing. Both models are rated at 60km/liter, or 1.6liter/100km. That's 141 mpg!

worth keeping an eye on, though I would not cancel your Kymco order!

I know, the mileage is amazing, and I just like the whole design concept of the hybrid... I'm not fussed over the MP3 having three wheels as I see pluses and minuses... still the MP3 wheel configuration is way better than the Spyder IMHO. Being able to have a bike that allows one to choose between petrol or electric mobility or a combination and the petrol engine tops up the battery plus the bonus of regenerative braking and so on... how cool is that on a motorbike no less. sweet...
no... am not cancelling my scooter order though am getting a little impatient as I was assured 7-10 days, and thats about up... The dealer has contacted me to say that CFMoto are busy and their production lines are working flat out. I wonder if maybe their pushing out too much, with all their models of scooters and the UTV they have for both domestic and export markets. That combined with the shortage of labour here must be putting the squeeze on production as it's affecting all sectors. Still I'd rather be patient than to push them, that way they might just take a little more care with aspects of QA/QC, than to take short cuts... at least that's what I tell myself.
