FAQ
If I want it bigger?
It’s not possible! The structure respects the maximum measures allowed for the certification test. With these characteristics the Ape V-Curve is safe and up to code.
I’d like to open a third wall
It isn’t necessary. The structure has been created specifically to manage the flow of guests from just one side, so as to make the workers’ jobs easier. Additionally, a third side is difficult to manage for positioning the vehicle as it would have a width of around 5 meters. The covered side is needed as protection in case of bad weather and allows the workers to carry out tasks without problems
It’s cold. I’d like to close the back wall
The structure is designed to make the vehicle easily accessible. Methods and systems exist for internally heating the vehicle. Contact us to discover possible solutions: info@vsveicolispeciali.com
It’s too tall!
The telescopic roof is necessary to organize an approved and compact vehicle when it is closed and spacious, and up to health code when it is open.
Can I work without an electrical outlet?
Yes! If you need to be autonomous we can provide your vehicle with an electrical generator for the refrigerator, light and water, and can install a gas system for the kitchen equipment.
Can I buy a Piaggio Ape with electric motor?
Yes! An electric version of Ape V-Curve is available and customisable.
The counter is too high. The customers can’t see my products!
Your items can be effectively communicated through the customized artwork on the 3 wheeled van and with the help of the whiteboards. The artwork on the model and the accessories allow one to specify the service offered and the product being sold.
The customer doesn’t need to see what you are preparing. What’s important is that the product is communicated in the best way possible.
