The Vespa S 150 IE draws inspiration from the first models designed by the company. However, despite its retro look, the Vespa S 150 IE is fitted with modern technologies which help it deliver first class levels of performances.
The scooter is powered by a 150 cc, single-cylinder, 4-stroke engine with catalytic converter which generates a maximum power of 8,7 kw (11.6 hp) at 8,000 rpm and 11,5 Nm (8.4 ft-lb) of torque at 6.250 rpm. The engine’s power is transferred to the rear wheel by means of an automatic twist and go transmission (CVT with torque server).
As far as suspensions are concerned, the Vespa S 150 IE is equipped with a dual-action hydraulic shock absorber up front and a rear dual action hydraulic monoshock.
