In France, triporteurs are viewed fondly as an invaluable part of 20th Century history. The name describes any 3-wheeler vehicle, including un-motorized 3-wheel delivery tricycles and ordinary pedal tricycles; motorcycle and scooter pick-ups and vans; the later style of closed-cab vehicles (such as Lambretta/ Vespa/ Piaggio Ape); and 3-wheel microcars.
