Vespa Primavera


The Vespa Primavera is a scooter produced by Piaggio under the Vespa brand since 2013. The Vespa Sprint was also derived from the Primavera, a sportier evolution with specific aesthetic details. Both were created to replace the Vespa LX and S.

History

The Vespa Primavera was presented in November 2013 at EICMA and represents the heir to the previous Vespa LX. production in the Pontedera plant started there and at the same time also sales on the European market. For the Asian market, the Primavera is produced in the Vin Puch plant in Vietnam. The name Primavera pays homage to the homonymous model presented at the motorcycle show in 1967 and produced until 1982.
in 2020 the Primavera Elettrica 45 and 70 were introduced.

Specifications

The Primavera maintains the overall dimensions similar to the previous LX but introduces a completely new chassis with a greater wheelbase combined with the sheet steel bodywork that acts as a load-bearing element. The engine is connected to the body with a two-degree-of-freedom arm system, while the front suspension adopts a new single-arm layout with shock absorber connected to the wheel via an aluminum pin. The battery has been moved to the central side member and the underseat compartment has increased capacity to 16.6 litres. The saddle is high from the ground.
The braking system is made up of a 200 mm front disc and a 110 mm rear drum on the 50 2T while all the other models mount a 140 mm drum. The front ABS has been optional since 2014 on the 125 and 150 models, while it is not available for the 50 2T model. The front tire measures 110/70 R11, the rear 120/70 R11.
Aesthetically, the Primavera was designed by the Piaggio style center led by Marco Lambri, taking up both elements from the historic Primavera of 1968 and from the recent 946 and has all LED direction indicators and position lights.
