Piaggio has launched an all new Vespa dealership in Hyderabad.
Piaggio has launched an all new Vespa dealership in Hyderabad. It is located in the heart of the city at Banjara hills and was inaugurated by young Telugu Film icon Sharwanand.
Vespa is on a role in India and has launched yet another showroom. Piaggio sells the Vespa range in India with 125cc and 150cc engines. The scooters have been selling very strongly in spite of them being considerably more expensive than its direct rivals. Vespas in general have that classic retro appeal that has been winning hearts all over the country. The company’s Vespa range consists of scooters like the original Vespa, Elegante, VXL 125, SXL 125, VXL 150 and the SXL 150.
Vespa SXL 150
The Vespa, Elegante, VXL 125 and SXL 125 are powered by a 125cc single cylinder motor that develops 10.06PS of max power at 7500 RPM and a max torque of 10.6Nm at 6000 RPM. The VXL 150 and SXL 150 on the other hand feature a 150cc single engine that develops a bit more power at 11.6PS at 7000 RPM and a max torque of 11.5Nm at 5500 RPM. Both engines features 3 Valve layout, Aluminium Cylinder Head, Overhead Cam and Roller Rocker Arm, MAP Sensing and Variable Spark Timing Management system. The entire Vespa range comes with only a CVT automatic transmission and wide 120-section rear tyres.
Vespa Elegante 125
Vespa also offers a wide range of accessories for its scooters like a range of custom coloured Classic and Curve helmets, Perimeter Kit, Front Chrome Bumper Guard and a Visor. The company has sold over 18 million units to date. Vespa is known for its unique styling which has evolved over the years. It has been 70 years since the launch of the brand and the company still has a niche in the scooter segment which is penetrating slowly into the younger generation buyers. We hope Piaggio brings the premium range of Vespa scooters to India, and given the demand it has for the brand we think that day is not too far.
