“Do You Vespa”

VESPA – A LEGENDARY ICON

Vespa – the truly global icon with a strong history of individualism and is the most widespread and popular two-wheeled vehicle in the world. It is a legend built on a record of technology and elegance that has transformed it over time into the emblem of a lifestyle connected to youth and freedom. A brand with real attitude, the Vespa lifestyle is exclusive; Vespa owners are special, original people; a secret club of people who Vespa; intriguing and inviting new customers to embrace the Vespa brand and community.

Our brand new “Do You Vespa” campaign embodies this concept and is about celebrating the personality and the attitude of the people we see in the images. We took our inspiration for the campaign from the people who choose to ride Vespa – they are people who have conviction and are sure of themselves, they are trend-setters not trend followers. They cut their own path through life, so much so, that you can pick them out of a crowd.

THE ALL NEW VESPA PRIMAVERA – YOUNGEST AND MOST DYNAMIC VESPA SPIRIT – 150CC NOW AVAILABLE IN SINGAPORE

EXQUISITE STYLE.

The Primavera is a highly modern Vespa, designed with the elegance of an exclusive style but without renouncing the comfort aspect.

The central part, with its distinguishing omega shape, improves the riding position and gives the most modern Vespa a clear style feature taken from the story of legendary models; it rises like a “backbone” up to the base of the handlebar. The footrest is now narrower at the sides and, together with the reduced height of the saddle, allows riders of any height to easily rest their feet on the ground.

The extended taillight also helps to give the body a streamlined appearance. The alternating convex and concave lines of the bodywork respect the most classic Vespa expressing a definite modern feel. Soft, rounded forms blend with the tension of sharp lines that give the entire vehicle an extra touch of vitality.

The turn indicators and LED daylight running lights are not excessively large, leaving space for the front shield; they are elegantly fitted flush with the bodywork, to avoid interfering with the clean lines of the Vespa Primavera.

Following in the footsteps of the Vespa tradition, the flat, two-seat saddle is now more comfortable and practical, with the double stitching that distinguishes refined Italian leatherwork. The rear part is surrounded by the passenger grab handle – made, of course, in the traditional and unmistakable chromium pipe.

The design of the 11” alloy wheel rims is entirely new and, despite respecting the traditional number of five spokes, manages to reinterpret a classicVespa element.

The Primavera comes in six colours – MonteBianco White, Blue Midnight, Dragon Red, Crete Senesi Brown, Marechiaro Light Blue and Vulcan Black.

TECHNOLOGY – A REVOLUTIONARY PRIMAVERA

All-new, more rigid body.

The steel sheet bodywork, that also acts as a support, is the element that makes the Vespa stand out from every other scooter in the world. TheVespa Primavera body is completely new, although it maintains a loyalty to a unique construction philosophy and consists of pressed, welded parts.

The precise design has produced previously unseen levels of rigidity, but without compromising the weight of the structure.

The new position of the battery (in the central side member of the footrest) has increased the capacity of the helmet compartment to 16.6 litres (from 14.3 in the previous Vespa), further facilitating access to the engine for maintenance work (just be raising the helmet compartment).

A new engine mounting system reduces vibrations.

The engine is mounted on the body with a system of 2-position arms (only one position on the previous version) and uses a stop with double rubber absorption damper. As a result, the rider feels a notable reduction in vibrations in the various contact points (saddle, knobs and footrest).

New front suspension.

Despite maintaining the classic Vespa single arm suspension, the new Primavera has a completely redesigned system for reducing slide friction. The shock absorber is now fixed to the aluminium support that connects it to the wheel via a hinged pin giving far less friction and so greater comfort for the rider.
