The Marotti is a radically styled trike developed in Poland.
The design took inspiration from fighter jets giving it
a rather extreme appearance which will probably not be
to everyone's taste - but at least it's unique. The two
vertical fins at the back of the Marotti are not just
for show however, they are in fact constructed from heavy
duty steel and designed to act as rollover protection
in the event of a crash.
Powering the single-seat Marotti is a rear-mounted 750
cc V4 engine from Honda which produces 100 horsepower
@ 11,000 rpm. In a vehicle weighing just 440 kgs (970
lbs) it should provide more than adequate straight line
performance. The transmission consists of 6 sequential
forward gears and an electric powered reverse gear.
The chassis of the Marotti trike consists of a box section
steel spaceframe running the entire length of the vehicle.
The swingarm for the rear suspension is a custom made
unit sized to fit the 17 inch rear wheel wrapped in a
275/45R17 tire.
