Tercyclo was an Italian micro–three-wheeler brand that offered a cabin-scooter–style kit in the early 2010s. Conceived as an ultra-compact urban vehicle, it used a steel tube space-frame with a GRP body and double-wishbone front suspension, sized 2350×1500×1250 mm on a 1850 mm wheelbase. The kit (listed at €3,500 plus VAT in 2011) included chassis, body panels, windscreen, roll bar, steering gear, front brakes and suspension, leaving the buyer to bolt on a complete scooter power unit and its original ancillaries; options mentioned at launch included a brand-new scooter engine, an electric reverse gearbox, and a GRP canopy. The design was attributed to Italo F. Sciacca (FuoriserieDesign, Milan), with intended engine choices ranging from 50 to 250 cc, positioning the vehicle as a nimble alternative to conventional cars for short city trips.
Brand data indicated operations in the Bologna area (San Giovanni in Persiceto) around 2011–2012, and period coverage framed Tercyclo as a compact, single-seat commuter concept rather than a mass-production carmaker.
