Vespa celebrated its 75th anniversary earlier this year. And to mark the occasion, the company had created a new and special series, called Vespa 75th, which includes the 75th-anniversary edition models of the Vespa Primavera and Vespa GTS. Both these scooters have now been launched in Indonesia.
The 75th-anniversary edition of the Vespa Primavera 150 has been launched in Indonesia at IDR 64 million whereas the 75th-anniversary edition of the Vespa GTS carries a price tag of IDR 175 million. Both are on-road prices. Both scooters will be available in the Southeast Asian country in limited numbers, however, Vespa has not announced the exact figures yet.
The highlighting feature of the 75th-anniversary edition Vespa scooters is the special paint scheme. It’s called “Giallo 75th”, an original metallic yellow, that has been developed specifically for the new series as a contemporary interpretation of hues in vogue in the 1940s. Vespa says that this colour evokes the heritage, innovative spirit and fashion-loving style of Vespa scooters.
The side panels and front mudguard of the 75th-anniversary edition Vespa scooters feature the number 75 in a slightly stronger shade, creating a quietly elegant tone-on-tone effect, which is repeated on the front of the scooters. They also have a special nubuck leather saddle with an edge in Grigio Fumo grey, wheel rims painted in grey with a diamond finish and a host of chrome-plated details.
The rear luggage rack, another distinctive feature of these Vespa models, is also chrome-plated. It houses a circular bag whose shape replicates the typical spare wheel holder. Made from soft nubuck leather in the same colour as the saddle, the bag has a shoulder strap for easy carrying, and clips on the luggage rack with a quick-release mechanism. It comes with a waterproof cover.
