There are no technical details on the next electric scooter, but the manufacturer says that “The Vespa Elettrica will first and foremost be a true Vespa, bringing the very latest electrical technology to a vehicle that will retain all of the features essential to its success. Style, agility, ease of use and driving pleasure will be the same as the Vespa we have always known, plus technological and innovative connectivity solutions. “
The production Vespa Elettrica scooter is expected to arrive at dealerships in the second half of 2017. The Piaggio Group is currently evaluating the most advanced players in the sector globally to jointly develop innovative electric motor technological solutions, which is why the project is not ready.
Don’t worry, the company will continue to manufacture gasoline versions as well. The whole range has been updated for 2017, with new colors and fitted with engines readjusted to meet Euro 4 standards.
An interesting new model in the range is the Vespa 946 (RED), which, as the name suggests, is an all-red version of the classic scooter. The new model has been designed with elegance and style to raise awareness of this serious problem. It offers the opportunity to join the battle against some of the most difficult diseases facing humanity.
The revenues generated by the RED scooter will go to initiatives to fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria.
