About Vespa

Born in Florence, Italy back in 1946, Vespa scooters have been around for over seven and a half decades. Piaggio, the company behind Vespa, originally designed these scooters to provide  affordable and practical transportation for the Italian masses after the Second World War. Thanks to starring in some high profile Hollywood movies in the ‘50s, the Vespa scooter shot to global fame.

Although Piaggio had done a tie-up in the mid-1960s with Chakan based Bajaj Auto to sell rebadged Vespas in India, and later in 1990 with the Lohia group to sell them here under the LML Vespa name, these collaborations ended after a few years. It was only in 2012 that Piaggio launched the Vespa brand in India by itself with the LX125. Piaggio also started producing Vespas in India in their own manufacturing facility in Baramati, near Pune, and launched several other models soon after.

Currently, Vespa offers a bunch of scooters in India with two engine options - the ZX in 125cc, the SXL, VXL and Racing Sixties - with both 125cc and 150cc engine and the Elegante, which only comes with the 150cc engine. All the models that Vespa offers in India come with the retro chic design and bright colors that made it such a global icon. Some years ago, Piaggio announced that they would be making an electric Vespa specifically designed for India. But thanks to the multiple lockdowns and market slowdowns caused by the Covid-19 pandemic seems to have derailed those plans for now.
