Impressive Build and Ride Quality – Vespa VXL 125

Meenal Joshi

Highly Satisfied with My Vespa VXL 125

<p>
The Vespa 150 proved to be a mixed bag in our annual track test. On the one hand, it remains an undisputed icon – a rolling piece of art that commands attention and wins on charm and road presence alone before the engine even fires up. The Qala Edition we tested, with its intricate mehndi-inspired graphics, exemplifies this perfectly. It is a showstopper. It drew more glances from the jury than many of the high-end motorcycles on the list. On the other hand, it feels familiar to the point of being dated, resting on its laurels, without taking the game forward.</p>

<p>This is what made its track performance the biggest surprise of the day. With its premium-lifestyle focus, we expected it to be a slow-speed, style-oriented cruiser. Yet the stopwatch told a different story.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/piaggio-india-cuts-prices-of-vespa-zx-aprilia-sr-175-and-more-after-gst-20-update-121829/">Piaggio India Cuts Prices of Vespa ZX, Aprilia SR 175 and More After GST 2.0 Update</a></p><p>The Vespa 150 Qala Edition clocked a lap time of 1:31.2 – astonishingly faster than its supposedly sportier, track-focused stablemate – the Aprilia SR 175. While the Aprilia felt aggressive and sharp, the Vespa proved more composed and effective against the clock.</p>

<p>This surprising pace is not because of the engine. Its 149.5 cc 3-valve air-cooled motor is engaging, but it’s certainly no powerhouse. The secret to its performance lies in its chassis. Unlike any of its rivals, the Vespa uses a full-steel monocoque construction. Coupled with its single-sided link-arm front suspension, it allows for a unique handling characteristic – not sharp but exceptionally stable and balanced – allowing the rider to carry significant momentum through corners with confidence.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/2025-vespa-125-series-launched-in-india-prices-start-at-rs-132-lakh-119841/"> 2025 Vespa 125 Series Launched in India; Prices Start at Rs 1.32 Lakh</a></p>

<p>Overall, the Vespa remains a purchase of the heart. It lacks the modern tech and features of its rivals, and the switchgear feels distinctly old-school. Yet the Qala Edition proved that beneath its timeless style, there is real substance. It’s not only about design and road presence – it can perform as impressively as it looks, as the lap times confirmed.

Vespa 150 Qala at autoX Awards: Best Bikes of 2025 Ranked

The Vespa Qala Edition proved that beneath its timeless style, there is real substance. It’s not only about design and road presence – it can perform as impressively as it looks.

<p>Piaggio India has announced revised prices for its Vespa and Aprilia scooter range following the rollout of the new GST 2.0 structure for two-wheelers under 350cc. The updated tax norms, which came into effect on 22 September 2025, lower the effective cost of ownership for buyers. By fully passing on the benefit of this tax cut, Piaggio has made both Vespa and Aprilia scooters more accessible across the country.</p><p>The Vespa lineup has received significant price adjustments. Popular models, including the Vespa ZX, Vespa 125, and Vespa S, are now priced lower at the ex-showroom level. The Vespa ZX, earlier listed at Rs 1.20 lakh, can now be purchased for Rs 1.10 lakh (ex-showroom). Overall, the Vespa range now sits between Rs 1.10 lakh and Rs 1.94 lakh, widening its reach among city commuters looking for premium styling paired with everyday practicality.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/no-price-change-for-aprilia-rs-457-and-tuono-457-following-gst-update-121823/">No Price Change for Aprilia RS 457 and Tuono 457 Following GST Update</a></p><p>Among the Vespa models, the Vespa S Tech 149 stands out with its new pricing. Previously positioned at Rs 2.12 lakh, it is now available at Rs 1.94 lakh. This reduction enhances its appeal among buyers interested in models equipped with advanced technology. The price cut spans across all variants, including dual-tone editions and scooters fitted with feature-focused technology packs, ensuring every customer benefits from the revised rates.</p><p>

The Aprilia SR 125 now starts at Rs 1.10 lakh, reflecting a more competitive position in the segment. Other models such as the Aprilia Storm and SR 175 follow suit with adjusted prices, placing the overall Aprilia scooter range between Rs 1.10 lakh and Rs 1.17 lakh. This positions the Aprilia portfolio as a strong choice for riders who value Italian design influences and sporty ride characteristics in the mid-capacity scooter space.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/aprilia-sr-125-launched-at-rs-120-lakh-gets-new-55-inch-colour-tft-display-and-more-121297/">Aprilia SR 125 Launched at Rs 1.20 Lakh; Gets New 5.5-inch Colour TFT Display and More</a></p><p>Piaggio expects the revised pricing to help strengthen its market presence by appealing to a broader customer base, particularly younger buyers choosing style-oriented and performance-focused scooters. The GST 2.0 reform, aimed at reducing financial burden on two-wheeler customers, has given scooter manufacturers an opportunity to improve affordability.</p>

Piaggio India Cuts Prices of Vespa ZX, Aprilia SR 175 and More After GST 2.0 Update

Piaggio lowers Vespa and Aprilia scooter prices, including SR 175 and Vespa S Tech 149, following GST 2.0 reforms, making premium scooters affordable nationwide.

The range starts at Rs 1.32 lakh and goes up to Rs 1.96 lakh (Ex-showroom), offering a Vespa for every rider ready to elevate their daily commute. Notably, Vespa has revealed prices for the 125cc models, while the cost of the 150cc variants will be announced later. The 2025 Vespa and Vespa S, the entry-level variants, stand out with their updated looks and fresh colour options. The base model sticks to its iconic, elegant appeal with a classic oval headlamp and smooth, flowing body lines, offering a sense of timeless sophistication. On the other hand, the Vespa S steps up with a more dynamic and sportier vibe, featuring a slender trapezoidal headlamp that sharpens its overall look. Despite the design updates, both models retain the durable monocoque metal body for long-lasting strength and reliability.</p><p><strong>Also Read:</strong>&nbsp;<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/ola-roadster-x-roadster-x-launched-in-india-prices-start-at-rs-75000-119813/">Ola Roadster X, Roadster X+ Launched in India; Prices Start at Rs 75,000</a></p><p>Priced at Rs 1.36 lakh, the Vespa S 125 comes at a premium of Rs 4,000 over the base model, adding more personality and luxury to the ride.

2025 Vespa 125 Series Launched in India; Prices Start at Rs 1.32 Lakh

The 2025 Vespa range will be available at all approved dealerships across India from February 25. Let’s take a closer look into the details of each model in the new lineup.

<p>The new Vespa GTS&nbsp;has made its debut on the global market with a larger 310cc liquid-cooled engine&nbsp;(a longer-stroke derivative of the former 278cc High-Performance Engine).&nbsp;The new powerplant contains more than 70% new components, resulting in higher performance.&nbsp;For example, the stroke of a single-cylinder now stands at 70mm, a bit higher than the previous 63mm. This raises displacement from 278cc to 310cc and output to 25bhp at 7,750rpm.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The new Euro 5+ engine is more efficient, resulting in lower fuel consumption and pollutants. Other powertrain modifications include&nbsp;injectors, cylinder inclination, starting system, and crankcase design. With all these enhancements, the GTS 310 is the most powerful Vespa ever.</p>

<h2>Limited-Edition Vespa Elettrica Monaco:</h2>

<p>The Vespa Elettrica takes its name and inspiration from the Mansory Ferrari 458 Spider Monaco Edition, which debuted in 2012 with an Enzo-inspired front end.

<p><img alt="Vespa Monaco Edition Side View" src="/uploads/2024/09/Vespa-Monaco-edition-side.jpg" style="width: 1280px; height: 720px;" /></p>

<p>The "Monaco Edition" is a limited-edition Vespa Elettrica made by the German custom workshop,&nbsp;Mansory.&nbsp;It is interesting to note that Mansory had never customised&nbsp;an electric vehicle&nbsp;before&nbsp;the Vespa Elettrica. This model&nbsp;differs primarily in appearance from the standard trim.&nbsp;The scooter&nbsp;sports an appealing&nbsp;Black and Grey paint job,&nbsp;enhanced on some body panels by the red and white accents&nbsp;of the Monaco flag.&nbsp;Additionally, the scooter's mudguard and side panels are composed of carbon fibre, and the cross-stitched leather seat complements the scooter's overall colour scheme.

<h2>JUSTIN BIEBER X VESPA: Design Details</h2>

<p><img alt="JUSTIN BIEBER X VESPA" height="720" src="/uploads/2023/08/JUSTIN-BIEBER-X-VESPA.jpg" width="1280" /></p>

<p>Bieber chooses a minimalist black and white aesthetic for his Vespa scooter design. Everything about this white Vespa Sprint is immaculate: the paint, the grips, the spokes, and the saddle. The brand's emblem and the drawn flames on the scooter's exterior are both done in white.</p>

<p>During its global debut in 2022, Justin Bieber said, “The first time I rode a Vespa was somewhere in Europe, probably either London or Paris. I just remember seeing a Vespa and being like ‘I want to ride one of those’. And I had such a great time, just the wind flying through my hair, the freedom. That was a lot of fun.</p>

<p>“I love Vespa, and to partner with such a classic brand is so cool. Being able to express myself, whether it's through art, music, visuals, or aesthetics, being able to create something from nothing - it's a part of me. Ultimately the goal in creating and designing is always to put your own unique spin on things", he added.</p>

<h2>JUSTIN BIEBER X VESPA: Engine</h2>

For clarity, that's a 155cc, single-cylinder engine producing 12bhp and 12.4Nm of torque. A single-channel anti-lock braking system (ABS) is standard, as are 12-inch wheels front and rear.

Justin Bieber X Vespa Special Edition Scooter launched in India at Rs 6.45 lakh

There will only be a few number of the Vespa Justin Bieber X Edition in India. The scooter itself will be imported as a CBU. The Canadian pop star Justin Bieber imagined and designed the all-white Justin Bieber X Edition.

The bookings for the limited-edition model will commence in the coming weeks.

<h2>Vespa Mickey Mouse Edition: What's New Visually?</h2>

<p>Born out of a collaboration between Piaggio and Disney, the special edition offers a bespoke three-toned paint scheme, comprising Red, Black, and Yellow - the same colours that characterise&nbsp;the iconic Mickey Mouse cartoon. Piaggio says that the yellow wheels are symbolic of the cartoon's shoes, while the black mirrors resemble his distinctive round ears.</p>
