Vespa LVX150 3Vie Safari and
PX125
Vespa Thailand at 2016 Thai Motor Expo has showcased the Vespa LXV150 3Vie Safari Limited Edition and
the Vespa PX125.
The limited edition LVX150 3Vie
Safari is inspired from an adventure safari in the meadows. The scooter is
painted in Matt Verde Militare scheme and gets dollops of chrome adding to the
classic appeal. The Vespa LXV150 3Vie Safari also gets a logo on the front
apron and storage box case as proof of its exclusivity.
A range of accessories have also
been unveiled which includes a helmet, bag, gloves and a key ring. The Vespa
LXV150 3Vie Limited Edition is priced at 119,900 Baht and is available at
dealerships across Thailand.
Launched in 1977, 3 million units
of the Vespa PX125 were sold until production was stopped in 2008 to make way
for gearless scooters with four-stroke engines. When Vespa brought it back to
the production line in 2011 admitting that it had misread the market, not a lot
was different from the original design.
The reborn Vespa PX125 is powered
by a two-stroke mill with electronic ignition and electric start. The gearbox
is a 4 speed manual unit with old-fashioned twist grip gearshifts. The Vespa
PX125 gets a modern electric start as well as a kickstart for retaining the classic
appeal, can run 40 km for a litre of fuel and claims a top speed of 83 km/h.
The Vespa PX125 is available in
three colours, red (Rosso Dragon), white (Monte Bianco) and black (Nero
Lucido), and is priced at 199,990 Baht.
