What do you think of the Piaggio 1 Active? Let us knows in the comments

I first bought Piaggio One Plus, but I was not happy with the limited speed of 45 km/h. Also, uphill drive was very slow and frustrating. Sold it just 2 months after I bought it. Then I bought Piaggio One Active, and...what a scooter! Speed limit 60 km/h, but easily goes to 70 km/h, uphill 40-50 km/h, even with 2 persons. Battery life: 50 km. :)

love the retro looks, reminds of old school Zip SP with single sided front swingarm / disk break. I reckon is a great looking bike for town commuting.

American here... I think the Piaggio One Active makes a lot of sense (though I wish it hit 40mph on flat roads!) for urban and suburban commutes. Some people aren't convinced by electric vehicles to make them their main vehicle, or at least don't want to give up a gas car for road trips and such, so an eScooter is a nice "additional" vehicle to visit your mates, cafe, post office, grab bread and milk, or other errands. Sadly I don't know of US gov't subsidies on eScooters like this, but even at the full MSRP the Piaggio 1 Active is a more affordable way to dip into EV's. Other personal/micro mobility vehicles just aren't practical: pedal assist eBikes are limited to 28 mph (20mph in some states!) and a lack of bike lanes means they can't coexist with 35-40mph car traffic, same issue for electric "kick" scooters (the standing kind) and they are also illegal on sidewalks, electric skateboards face the same problems as above and are even less safe/stable (especially susceptible to crashing on cracks), and electric unicycles are hard to learn (and you may also get stopped by police for riding them on sidewalks away from cars). While gas combustion motorcycles are occasionally seen on US roads, they have a stigma of being intimidating... even gas scooters are rare because people don't want the maintenance and view them as "leisure vehicles" rather than dependable means of transport. Hopefully we see more electric scooters like the Piaggio One Active, though it and the Niu scooters are already providing some interest for early adopters.

I'm in Italy and just bought one, was delivered to me yesterday, I haven't tried it yet, I was browsing on some reviews in order not to miss anything important or risk remaining stuck away from home without knowing how to come back... Actually, I was tempted to take it for a ride today, but the cold just turned me off, I'll wait for a warmer day...

Love that swingarm ❤️👍love Piaggio

Nice review. It would be great if you would also mention the Metric units and Euro prices. Thank you.

Good looking

I really like this bike and had a good look around one when buying my Guzzi V7 recently. I would need a 125/200cc equivalent for it to be viable for me though, fingers crossed they'll come up with something in the near future.

good video thank you

Looks nice 👌

Hello, can you please help me how to reset the maintenance icon ( it appears automatically around 1000km ) :((( just can't find any info anywhere about this

I love 💯

is the active 1 classed as a 50cc or 125cc? (top speed 38mph model)

Using mine as a daily commuter to work ( 28 km ) everyday even in winter with wintertires mounted on it 😎

How can I connect my phone ?

I want to get one if they're in London

More suited to a city commute I think. Been riding since April to work which is 17 miles a day so I have to charge daily which is a nuisance. Speed is enough for me, tops 37-40. Mileage is 30-31 on Sport. Local dealer is 17 miles away so they have to charge my battery for me which is another annoyance. Not easy to buy accessories and neither is it easy to communicate with Piaggio who can ignore emails, also from the dealer. Not many will think the electric revolution is good with this one because of the limited mileage and inability to charge easily. Not sure they have 3 pin plugs at charging stations as I haven't been to one.

When's the aprilia sr gt 125 review being released??

How does this compare in performance, ability to handle low-medium inclines compared to a 50cc piaggio zip 4 stroke (restricted)? and similar ones??? Anyone bought the piaggio one/one+ and can share some experiences?

Can you still go fast at the range of 50km or is it like if you get to 40km you can go to 50km but in eco mode? Or can you go to the range of 50km and stil go 60km/h

I've just heard about this 40mile range 38mph top speed No 3 wheels I would love something like piaggio mp3 400 in Electric that could maybe do 100+miles range

We need more Piaggio dealers here in the UK.

The one benefit where i live in the netherlands.. absolutely no fucking hills.. works great here

Good looking bike.But i never understand, when listen to reviews what do the background music serves a purpose more than being annoying ?

I think not being able to ride the one active with a full car license is rubbish

The music is too loud, it drowns out your voice :(

Way to slow for me, ok for 30mph zones but no good for out of town, the brakes are good because it’s so slow 🤣🤣🤣

Of course you have to buy fuel. The fuel is electric not petrol.

I have had my Active One nine months and it has been a big disappointment. The scooter is slow with weak acceleration. The suspension is absolute garbage. The front shock would not hold a screen door shut and constantly bottoms out although I only weigh 68 kgs. My local dealer refuses to work on it or replace the front shock under warranty. I will be trading it in on another Vespa soon. My 20 year old et2 was a much better scooter as was my Yamaha Zuma.

So not for food deliveries
