Piaggio India is all set to unveil the new Vespa which takes the cues from the Racing sixties edition. The platform used here will be from the Vespa SXL-150.
Racing sixties is a brand which is inspired by the late sixties. The base engine remains as is with 150 cc motor churns 10.4 bhp.
The only change we could figure out over here are the aesthetics, and we expect them to change primarily.
Inspiration for the Vespa Racing Sixties series comes from the gentlemen riders races of the 60s. The world in which freedom of expression extended as far as the vehicle customisation arena.
During that decade, riders were fuelled by a great spirit of independence and autonomy, determinedly choosing their team.
The races in which to compete, and even the aesthetics of their vehicle, particularly in terms of its colours, graphics and materials, which had a fundamental role back then.
Colours and graphics would often reflect a sense of belonging to one’s country of origin.
Graphic details and colour schemes selected to ensure one’s private team had a distinctive and easily recognisable look.
A visual tribute to the brands that chose to support sports teams on the road to victory.
We saw this scooter at the 2020 Auto Expo. Piaggio India had a plan to unveil it sometime in March.
However COVID had an ill effect on the launch, and now Piaggio India wants to launch it in September.
Expect the price tag to be a bit premium.
