Description

Aprilia Magnet Tilting Reverse Trike.

A design concept by Finnish student Heikki Naulapaa.


The Aprilia Magnet was designed to have a Formula 1 driving position, the lean of a motorcycle and a half outside feeling with the exposed seating. Power was to come from either a 550cc Aprilia V-twin engine or alternatively, electricity driving the electro magnetic drive system at each wheel, the source of the name “Magnet.” It was designed to carry either one or two people.

The vehicle never got beyond the concept stage.
