A three-wheeled vehicle is disclosed having a vehicle frame supported by front ground engaging members and a single rear ground engaging member. The vehicle includes an engine positioned forward of an operator area and a swing arm coupled to the single rear ground engagement member. The operator area of the vehicle may include seating for a driver and a passenger.

A tilting vehicle includes a frame, a right wheel and a left wheel set alongside one another, a suspension system that operatively connects the right and left wheels to the frame, and an electronic control system operatively connected to the suspension system; the suspension system includes a first extensible assembly between the right wheel and the frame, and being designed to exert a thrust action between the right wheel and the frame to control tilting of the vehicle; the suspension system including a second extensible assembly between the left wheel and the frame, and being designed to exert a thrust action between the left wheel and the frame, to control tilting of the vehicle; the vehicle includes an actuation interface having an exposed surface operatively connected to the control system; the actuation interface is designed to be operated by a driver to control tilting of the vehicle upon command.

A running gear for small electrical vehicles provides the possibility of inclining and of steering the vehicle and of damping bumps in the carriageway, the chassis comprising a frame connection to the vehicle frame, a rigid or damped rocker beam assembly, a central bolt, a flexible transverse link plate, two uprights for keeping hold of the two front wheels, and two steering rods which each connect one of the two uprights to the steering device. The area of use comprises multi-wheeled small vehicles.

A leaning vehicle includes a vehicle body, a plurality of wheels, a lean mechanism, and a lean stopper mechanism. The wheels include a left front wheel and a right front wheel. The lean mechanism causes the left front wheel and the right front wheel to lean about a front-rear direction as a rotation center when the vehicle body leans about the front-rear direction as a rotation center. The lean stopper mechanism prevents a lean angle from exceeding a limit angle. in a plan view, an area bounded by lines connecting contact positions of ground and tires of the plurality of wheels is referred to as a grounding surface inner area, and a gravity center is positioned in the grounding surface inner area in a state where the lean angle reaches the limit angle.

A locking system for a vehicle having a locking device and a gear motor operatively connected to the locking device and configured to cause the locking device to take a stable locking state and a release state, where the gear motor includes a drive motor having an input shaft, a first transmission wheel coupled to a first portion of the input shaft and a second transmission wheel coupled to a second portion of the input shaft.

A vehicle small in width and capable of ensuring both driving stability and drivability includes: a vehicle body with two or more wheels including steered wheels (right front wheel, left front wheel) for steering; an inclination angle detection part that detects the inclination angle of the vehicle body about a roll axis thereof; and a torque applying part (turning mechanism) that applies a steering torque to the steered wheels in accordance with an inclination angular velocity or an inclination angular acceleration of the vehicle body calculated from the inclination angle.
