In the over 50cc scooter segment, in March the Group reached a 35.1% share – reflecting continuous growth from 28.7% in February 2010 and 27.8% in January 2010 – a result achieved in part through the performance of the Piaggio Beverly 300 Tourer scooter, the outright best-selling vehicle on the Italian market in March.

In motorcycles, the Group reported a small improvement with respect to the first two months of 2010 with a 5.5% share in March, and confirmed its prior-year first-quarter performance thanks to the Aprilia, Moto Guzzi and Derbi brands.
