Piaggio Ape alternative - ARI 345 Retro offers cargo scooter successor after Ape production end

With the ARI 345 Retro, ARI Motors offers a forward-looking solution for anyone looking for a sustainable, functional and stylish transportation vehicle. Inspired by the legendary Piaggio Ape, the ARI 345 Retro combines nostalgic design with modern electromobility and sets new standards in terms of versatility and environmental friendliness.

The end of the Piaggio Ape in Europe

The Piaggio Ape, an integral part of the urban street scene since its introduction in 1948, is saying goodbye to European production. Stricter EU regulations in the areas of safety and the environment led to this decision. This creates a gap for a practical, compact and maneuverable three-wheeled vehicle - a gap that ARI Motors is filling innovatively with the ARI 345 Retro.
