While three-wheeler machines are not uncommon, the Piaggio MP3, pictured, features two front wheels that tilt, which is uncommon.
Piaggio claims the MP3 provides safety, road grip and stability levels that no two-wheeler can match.
It features an electro-hydraulic suspension locking system which means it stays upright when parked without the need for any stand.
The MP3 also requires less braking distance than other scooters thanks to the stopping power of three disc brakes.
While full-size motorcycles will not be appearing at the motor show this year, the scooter section will feature an Italian-themed display where you can get a gelato and a cappuccino.
The show runs until February 11 at Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, South Bank.
Patrons can travel free by train to the show when they buy their tickets at a QR CityTrain station.
Ticket prices are $16 for adults, $10 for children and $24 for a family.
Children under five are admitted to the motor show free.
