I appreciate your view as an owner giving us the real world information on these, thanks. Thinking of getting one of these new as a daily driver to run errands and put around in the PI, mostly for their usefulness, mod-ability, dependability, and low cost of ownership. I just cannot justify spending a mil or two on a car when I won't be going far or fast. Sure AC is nice, but I'm good with a breeze. And it's not like I will be making the drive from Houston to West Palm Beach... ever. I'm thinking one of these will do everything I need and do it well for 1.10th the price of a new car.

Just a note, the gas model is quieter

[@scottbrinks9248]

Just bought a Piaggio Ape gas model here in Bohol. Have nearly 1K km on it. So far it has been as expected. Runs well, has enough power and torque to climb hills and carry people. Mine is for private use here in the province as I need transport to get around locally. Much safer than having a motorcycle of any kind. Have a car for longer trips. It is worth the investment as far as I can see.

[@rickshawphilippines]

They are great for emergency maneuvers there are very hard to tip

[@deanschaal8054]

Agree the big vehicles are a pain to drive in PH.

[@rickshawphilippines]

Yes ez to get around in this & motorbikes rule! That is if ya need to get somewhere quick, fast & in a hurry!

[@user-qo1kz9hq3x]

You should change the side mirror position.. It shouldnt be kept like that... Just turn around the mirror towards inward. Outside front wind shield.. And it will be perfect like Indian auto

[@rickshawphilippines]

Cannot do, as rear is much wider than front. If I move them in I cannot see behind me

[@user-qo1kz9hq3x]

@@rickshawphilippines ohh okay... Then u have to drive very carefully ❤❤ love from nagaland india

[@jdedad]

Hey Rick how would this compare to the Baja ? I think you said the Ape is one cylinder? I am pretty sure the Baja is twin

[@rickshawphilippines]

Nope bajaj 200cc 1cyl it's a gas hog, I tested all of them b4 I bought, piaggio the most stable. The models I test drove seemed prone to tipping, the piaggio was not

[@jdedad]

RickShaw Philippines I speak a little bit of Italian I’m sure you know Ape means Bee I guess the idea is you buzz around town making a lot of stops lol

[@rickshawphilippines]

Yep, bee. Great machines once you get used to their quirks

[@scottbrinks9248]

Currently the Baja is 200CC and the Piaggio is 230cc.

[@rickshawphilippines]

Piaghio diesel is 435cc

I'm planning to buy a rickshaw... Would you recommend Piaggio, over Bajaj RE, and TVS? (these are the available models here in Ph)

[@rickshawphilippines]

Yes I tried them all, the diesel ape was the best for us, it's our little truck.

[@Bravo21]

I was wondering the same thing. The new Baja limited edition with the hard top is nice. Hard to beat the economy and dependability of the diesel though.

[@battousaihimura8822]

MAN, even if it's not Diesel, Would u still recommend the PIAGGIO APE CITY Over BAJAJ RE n TVS KING? I'm planning to Buy one nxt month.

[@rickshawphilippines]

Yes, just for the stability

[@rickshawphilippines]

We drove all of them, for us the piaggio was the most stable.plus its bigger although not as refined as the others

[@battousaihimura8822]

@@rickshawphilippines Piaggio APE CITY is really my #1 Choice..I'm just having a Hard time looking for a Piaggio Dealer near us.unlike the Bajaj or TVS just look for a K Servico n Wheeltek stores.

[@Neronero41]

How much for this diesel variant of piaggio ape sir nowadays?

[@rickshawphilippines]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHbOo5iPod-KsMk

[@rickshawphilippines]

P180000 for ape city diesel, the diesel is much louder than the gas. Piaggio has come out with jeepney style that holds 8 in the back plus 2 up front next to driver

[@richardbait-it565]

what is the top speed of this piaggio?

[@rickshawphilippines]

About 60kmh

[@Craig-MercyG]

Just found this old vid, I've been thinking of getting something like this. Does it need to be registered and do I need to have a licence. I am getting a Philippine license in the near future.

[@rickshawphilippines]

Yes these need to be registered & you need license

[@Craig-MercyG]

Im planning to buy one a 3 Wheeler. There are 3 well known brands now in the market BAJAJ, PIAGGIO APE n TVS. Can you Highly recommend PIAGGIO APE? Im planning to use it for service or Everyday use only. Tnx!
