PRICING AND AVAILABILITY ANNOUNCED FOR PRIMAVERA, NOTTE, AND YACHT CLUB MODELS

NEW YORK, NY – JUNE 19, 2018 – Last week Piaggio Group Americas, as a sponsor, attended the Vespa Club of America’s 2018 annual Amerivespa event. Rally attendees by the hundreds arrived in Richmond, Virginia from all over to celebrate the quintessential form of urban mobility and most iconic scooter companies with Vespa over the four-day event.

In the spirit of the festivities, Vespa arrived with aim to surprise, showing never before seen production models from Italy, destined for the North American markets later this year as early 2019 models. Each of the sponsored activities throughout the rally showcased a new special edition family, featuring the upcoming Primavera 50th Anniversary, Primavera S, Yacht Club, and Notte model versions.

PRIMAVERA 50TH ANNIVERSARY MODEL

YOUTHFUL, LIGHT VESPA SPIRIT, WITH UPDATED STYLE AND TECHNOLOGICAL EQUIPMENT

50 YEARS OF THE ICONIC MODEL WITH ANNIVERSARY AND NEW SPORTIER “S” VERSIONS

Vespa Primavera celebrates its fabulous first 50 years.*The first version of what would become a timeless classic arrived on the market in 1968 and was a revolution: small, nimble, propelled by a peppy engine, Primavera gave free flight to several generations and remained in continuous production until 1982. It became a legendary model, but also one of the most spectacular commercial successes in Vespa’s history.

Today*Vespa Primavera*embodies all the values that, half a century ago, made it successful. Young, innovative, technologically avant-garde, agile and dynamic, and environmentally friendly, Vespa Primavera is a modern bike, inheriting the freshness and joie de vivre of its progenitor.

The most important news comes from the size of the*wheel rims:*12″, made of aluminum alloy and with a new five-spoke design, they are the largest in Vespa’s history. This provides greater stability, improved safety, and better holding on all surfaces and in all road conditions.

On top of all the new features that enrich the range, the special edition Vespa Primavera S incorporates a fully digital instrument panel with a 4.3″ full color TFT display. It is a true revolution for Vespa, which for the first time in its history boasts a completely digital color dashboard.
