Piaggio and Vespa Scooters Come with Financing Offers

Piaggio Group Americas and FreedomRoad Financial announced today the start of an official partnership that will provide retail financing for Piaggio and Vespa scooters in the United States. The new partnership offers zero down payment, low rates and up to 60 month terms on all new Piaggio and Vespa motor scooters.

“We are looking forward to partnering with a well respected company like FreedomRoad Financial to offer our customers great finance rates so they can more easily afford the Vespa or Piaggio scooter they have been wanting,” said Rick Panettieri, Piaggio Group Americas director of product management.

“We have been working with Freedom Road Financial for many months now and are expanding the number of brands and models that can be financed with them. We have been pleased with our relationship so far with Moto Guzzi and are looking forward to expanding that to cover the Vespa and Piaggio brands. The longer term loans will provide our customers with good credit the opportunity to have even lower monthly payments,” Panettieri added.

The company has also included a Piaggio MP3 holiday sales event on its list, giving customers the opportunity to save up to $1,400, valid through December 31, 2010.

“Vespa and Piaggio are iconic brands with economical environmentally friendly products, passionate customers and dealers, and we are thrilled that they have chosen us as their retail financing partner,” stated Tom Collins, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of FreedomRoad Financial, “We look forward to establishing solid relationships with their dealers and being a contributor in helping them grow their sales in this country.”
