Engine and Underpinnings

All the 125cc Vespa scooters are powered by a 124.45cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine which makes 9.3PS at 7,000rpm and 10.1Nm at 5,600rpm, and is paired to a CVT. It gets a monocoque full steel body which is suspended leading-link front suspension and a monoshock. Braking is handled by a 200mm disc at the front and a 140mm drum at the rear with CBS (Combined Braking System) mounted on 11-inch front and 10-inch alloy wheels. It has a seat height of  770mm and a fuel tank capacity of 7.4 litres. 

The 150cc Vespa scooters are powered by a 149.5cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine which makes 11.2PS at 7,500rpm and 11.66Nm at 6,100rpm, and is paired to a CVT. The chassis and suspension remains the same as the 125cc scooters but it gets a 200mm disc at the front with ABS and a 140mm drum at the rear. It rides on a 11-inch front and 10-inch rear alloy wheel. The 150cc variants have a seat height of 770mm and a fuel tank capacity of 7.4 litres. 

ZigSays

The 2025 lineup of Vespa scooters is quite expansive. They have replaced the ‘SXL’ and ‘VXL’ monikers with Vespa and Vespa S to make it easier to understand. With an exorbitant price tag of Rs 1,32,000 for the base variant and Rs 1,96,000 for the Tech variant (both prices ex-showroom, Maharashtra), Vespa aims to position itself more as a lifestyle brand especially with the Qala Edition. Apart from the exclusive and premium colour schemes, the monocoque chassis is expensive to manufacture and is one of the contributing factors to its high price tag. Technically the 125cc Vespas go against other 125cc scooters such as the TVS Jupiter 125, Suzuki Access 125 and the Yamaha Fascino 125 in India, but Vespa aims to be a more premium, unique, attention-grabbing proposition with rich history to boot for discerning scooter enthusiasts.
