The three wheel design it self means a much safer riding than a motorcycle on the road. The braking system is made in ABS (anti-lock) system, which regenerate the front wheel brake, the brake then links to the rear wheel. Peugeot stated that this ABS lock system reduction distance is around 30% compared to a two-wheel scooter with traditional brake.

The HYbrid3 Evolution can be driven in a number of modes:

  • in electric only mode (start-up, low speed and deceleration, offering a range of up to 10 km);
  • in petrol only mode, at stable speed on the open road, when the petrol engine offers optimal efficiency;
  • petrol engine/electric motor combined, with the three-wheel drive offering enhanced safety and stability

The STOP-START system is set in the petrol engine when the vehicle is at a standstill mode or when it is driven in electric mode.
