A folding urban mobility vehicle comprising:- a frame (28),- a pair of front wheel assemblies (18) carried by respective front arms (16) articulated to the frame (28) about a first axis (A), and- a rear wheel assembly (22) carried by a rear arm (20) articulated to the frame (28) about a second axis (B),wherein each of said front arms (16) comprises a first arm section (44) articulated to the frame (28) and a second arm section (46) carrying the respective front wheel assembly (18) and articulated to the respective first arm section (44) about a third axis (C) inclined with respect to said first axis (A),wherein the front arms (16) are movable between an extended configuration in which the second arm sections (46) are arranged according to a general V-shaped configuration so that the track (L1) between said front wheel assemblies (18) is greater than the width (L2) of said frame (28), and a retracted configuration in which the second arm sections (46) of the front arms (16) are close together in a configuration wherein the distance between the front wheel assemblies (18) is less than said width (L2) of said frame (28) and in which the front arms (16) are rotated backwards about said first axis (A) with respect to the configuration of use,wherein said rear arm (20) is rotatable about said second axis (B) between an extended position in which the rear arm (20) extends from a rear part of the frame (28) and a retracted position in which the rear arm (20) is rotated forward about said second axis (B) with respect to the configuration of use, andwherein in a folded configuration of the vehicle (10) the front wheel assemblies (18) are located within the frame (28) and the rear wheel assembly (22) extends within the frame (28) between the two front wheel assemblies (18).
