Make of this vehicle for a point

Moving up to the next level

Trying the (too?) obvious first: Piaggio?

woodinsight

Not Piaggio.
I took this photo in Switzerland last year but the manufacturer is a long way from there.

Wendax

Bajaj from Pune, India?

woodinsight

Not Bajaj and not from India

woodinsight

I have to add that although the marque is non-European, I'm unsure about this company's manufacturing bases - it may have been constructed in Europe.

woodinsight

Just to add to my last post I understand the company owned several European firms although the marque name of the puzzle was that of the parent company

woodinsight

Professional help required

I suppose, considering the vast amount of these types of vehicles, made for example in India, Italy, but also Thailand, the Philippines and I believe many more, that we first try and find the country?


It looks like a "TukTuk" from the front, but let's say Thailand as my guess for the country?

woodinsight

Not Thailand.
Although this vehicle carries the name of its parent company it could have been built by a subsidiary in Europe.
Good idea to search for the continent/country as this will narrow down the possibilities.

Not Asian - which narrows the field a bit

The more you learn, the more you realise how little you know.

woodinsight

Not quite that close! - not Mexico

woodinsight

Not an island country.
A very large country!

Yes!
If you read back through the posts you may come to a conclusion as to the make of the small truck

Oguerrerob

One of the three big car makers?

I could see Chrysler making something like this through one of its subsidiaries.

woodinsight

Not a car manufacturer

Oguerrerob

a shot in the dark: Harley?
