Pecolo: Electric Powered, Zero Emissions

What is Pecolo?

Pecolo is a gasoline-free, three-wheeled electric vehicle aiming to combat concerns about harmful exhaust emissions. Prozza designed and developed a vehicle packed with Japanese technology, offering the safety, maneuverability, practicality and durability that drivers require. Because the engine is powered by electricity, the vehicle produces zero-carbon emissions when running, and frees operators from the worries of gasoline.

Pecolo is the perfect choice for the following modes of transport:

● Moving people to and from the shopping centers

● Transporting children to schools

● Short distance transportation

● As a shuttle service vehicle for tourists

● As hotels and resorts shuttle

● As a shuttle service inside industrial parks

HILL CLIMBING The vehicle can handle steep slopes up to 15°

PARKING BRAKE The parking brake is a standard vehicle feature and is useful during parking and stopping and starting on a slope. The parking brake indicator light let the operator know the brake is on.


	REMOVABLE BATTERY The use of a lithium-ion battery allows for a lighter, more compact design and the option to change batteries at any given time. This solves the problem of not being able to use the vehicle during recharging.


BRAKE SYSTEM (FRONT/REAR INDEPENDENT BRAKES) Front and rear brakes are independent from each other, designed to prevent both the front and rear wheels from locking up. The front brake is hand-operated while the rear brake is foot operated, making it easy to get familiar with the controls.


	ROUGH SURFACES The front wheel is mounted on an Earles fork, and the rear wheels independently adjust to rough surfaces. As well, the stable design reduces lateral shaking.


REGENERATIVE BRAKING Regenerative braking slows the vehicle down and feeds energy back to the battery, thus re-charging it.


	LARGE WHEELS / EARLS FORK With the 16-inch front wheel and 13-inch rear wheels, the design ensures optimal contact with the road in every driving condition thus increasing passenger’s comfort.

GAUGES AT A GLANCE Gauges are conveniently arranged and displayed to ensure safety while driving. Innovative proprietary design makes the handle bar more maneuverable.


	FLOOD PROOF The powertrain and other components are positioned higher in the vehicle to keep from contact of flood water.


LIGHTING Regulation-compliant lighting is used to ensure perfect visibility at night or on overcast weather.


	EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH Safety is our top priority. The easy-to-access emergency stop switch is intuitively positioned in the dashboard to shutdown all power when necessary.

WIPERS / WIPER MOTORS Clears water/dirt away for safe driving in all-weather conditions.


	DC 12 V SOCKET DC 12 V socket provides a low power source that can be used for recharging cell phones, etc.


CABIN LIGHTING The Pecolo comes with a standard low-power LED cabin lights that illuminates its interior.

GENEROUSLY SPACIOUS SEATING The roomy interior is designed with comfort to the passengers in mind.


	BODY KEEPS RAIN AWAY The intuitive crafting of the roof and windows channels rain water away from the interior.


NATURALLY VENTILATED Wind can pass through the vehicle’s large openings in the driver and passenger’s sides making the ride more comfortable.
