Peugeot Metropolis 400

The Peugeot Metropolis 400 has a top speed of 155 km/h, produces 34 hp and weighs 275 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.

Der Peugeot Metropolis 400 wurde 2013 als dreirädriger Maxi-Scooter vorgestellt. Damit war er eines der ersten kippbaren Dreiräder im Rollersegment und ein direkter Konkurrent des Piaggio MP3. Er war bekannt dafür, einer der leistungsstärksten und hochwertigsten dreirädrigen Roller seiner Zeit zu sein. Er verfügte über fortschrittliche Technologien wie ABS und ein ausgeklügeltes, neigbares Vorderradaufhängungssystem. Das Modell trug dazu bei, Peugeot Scooters wieder zu einem ernstzunehmenden Akteur auf dem Maxi-Scooter-Markt zu machen, obwohl die Rollersparte von Peugeot später im Jahr 2015 von Mahindra übernommen wurde.

Was Käufer wissen sollten

⚙️

3-Wheel Stability Advantage

The Metropolis 400 uses Peugeot's tilting three-wheel system, giving it superior stability at low speeds and in corners compared to traditional two-wheelers. This makes it especially appealing for urban commuters and riders returning after a long break.

🔧

Watch the Tilt Lock

The tilting lock mechanism is a known wear point — buyers should test it thoroughly and check for smooth, rattle-free operation. Neglected maintenance on this system can lead to costly repairs unique to three-wheelers.

💰

Holds Value Reasonably Well

As a niche, premium three-wheeler with limited competition in its segment, the Metropolis 400 tends to retain value better than comparable two-wheel scooters. Low production numbers and a loyal owner base help support used market prices.

Urban commuters wanting wet-weather confidence and practicality

"Capable, practical three-wheeler undermined by ownership costs and dealer scarcity."

$4,500-$7,500 used

The Metropolis 400 is genuinely one of the more interesting three-wheelers out there, and used examples are decent value if you pick carefully. That Peugeot badge means parts availability is patchier than a Honda or Yamaha equivalent, so before you hand over cash, find out what your nearest dealer looks like. The triple-wheel setup gives you confidence in the wet that a conventional scooter simply can't match, and the 400cc twin puts out enough grunt for real-world commuting without feeling breathless on faster A-roads. The things that bite people on used examples are the CVT belt and the front suspension linkages. Both wear faster than you'd expect, and both are labour-intensive to sort. Check for any clunking over rough ground and insist on a recent belt change. The riding position is commanding and the storage is genuinely practical, but don't expect sports-bike handling dynamics — this is a commuter tool first and always. For the right buyer it makes solid sense. Just do your homework on service history and budget a few hundred for immediate maintenance.
