well managed by the modern disc brakes on all the wheels and are totally trustworthy in emergency situations. The dashboard design of the vehicle makes it classy and also gives the owner a good feeling. The cabin space is also quite spacious. Piaggio Porter 700 is available in 4 attractive colors, Bianco white, light blue, western red and sahara yellow. Piaggio Porter 700 comes with two unique features that the other light commerical vehicles in this category do not have. Porter 700 wiper movement is called sequential sweep, which allows the blades to cover as much of the windscreen as possible, minimising the risk of a large unwiped corner on the front passenger side of the windscreen. Another unique feature of the Piaggio Porter 700 is that the vehicle comes with electronic throttle control technology which electronically connects the accelerator pedal to the throttle, replacing a mechanical linkage. A typical electronic throttle control system consists of three major components, an accelerator pedal module, ideally with two or more independent sensors, a throttle valve that can be opened and closed by an electric motor and a power train or engine control module.
The benefits of electronic throttle control are largely unnoticed by most drivers because the aim is to make the vehicle power-train characteristics seamlessly consistent irrespective of prevailing conditions, such as engine temperature, altitude, and accessory loads. Electronic throttle control is also working behind the scenes to dramatically improve the ease with which the driver can execute gear changes and deal with the dramatic torque changes associated with rapid accelerations and deceleration.
