FAMEL - Fabrica de Produtos Metalicos Lda, was one of the largest Portuguese moped manufacturers between 1960s and 1980s. Based in Águeda, the company built several models using Zündapp engines. The most popular model was the XF17. Presented in 1970, it was a 5 speed 50cc moped copied from Suzuki Stinger T125 model from 1969. As the increased purchasing power in their home country Portugal made automobile more and more popular, the moped market became smaller and the strong competition from European and Japanese imported models forced the bankruptcy. Their last product was the world's first electric scooter, developed in 1993. FAMEL Electric or Electron, totally produced with Portuguese technology in partnership with EFACEC. The entire (small) production was sold to La Poste before FAMEL stopped production. The following year, Peugeot presented their Scoot'elec based on the same technology. == External links == * (Famel on the Portuguese Motorcycle Database ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「FAMEL」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
