Autoitalia Philippines Enterprises, Inc. is a proud member of the Autohub Group. It is the distributor of the Piaggio APÉ and Piaggio Porter commercial vehicles in the Philippines. Autoitalia aims to change the light commercial vehicle landscape in the Philippines by providing an innovative platform to all transport, mobile businesses, and delivery needs.
A Ceremonial Signing of Technical Licensing Agreement of CKD Kits Assembly commenced last February 28, 2020, at Manila Golf and Country Club to seal the tie-up.
The intention is to have Piaggio APÉ three-wheeled vehicles be registered to the Board of Investments (BOI) under Executive Order (EO 156) or the Motor Vehicle Development Program (MVDP) to assemble, manufacture and distribute Piaggio vehicles to the Philippine territory in a Complete-Knock-Down (CKD) state of importation from Piaggio Vehicle Private Limited (PVPL) Inc. in India and the opportunity to export such products to the ASEAN countries like Laos and Cambodia.
The signing of the Technical Licensing Agreement gives Autoitalia the privilege to do both domestic and export sales – open ownership to Piaggio for infusion of capital. The Joint Venture and Autoitalia will remain domestic-oriented.
Autoitalia will be licensed to assemble and distribute APÉ vehicles in the ASEAN and other territories agreed upon.

Regional Value Content (RVC) is 40%. – means 40% of the CKD components should come locally and/ or sourced from ASEAN. This would allow export to ASEAN to use the duty-free ASEAN rate. This would mean that Piaggio would have to do sourcing and manufacturing and assembly operations including painting and welding of major components of the vehicle here.
