New Vespa Motor Scooter Introduced
The Granturismo is the fastest, most powerful Vespa model ever developed.
November 18, 2003, Los Angeles,CA– For the first time since
1996, Piaggio USA Inc., manufacturer of the world-famous VespaÒ
motor scooter, has introduced a new model to the U.S .market. The
Vespa Granturismo, as its name implies, is a touring vehicle by design.
The Granturismo is the biggest, fastest, most powerful and technologically
advanced Vespa that Piaggio has produced, offering comfort and performance
on even the longest of rides. With a large steel body and 200cc engine,
the Vespa Granturismo is the perfect mix of classic Vespa style and
state-of-the-art technology.
“The U.S. scooter market has grown tremendously in the last
couple of years due in part to the American consumer’s realization
that scooters are a stylish, yet economical mode of transportation
for everything from navigating city streets to shopping in suburbia,”
said Costantino Sambuy, President and CEO of Piaggio USA,Inc.
In addition to its 200cc engine, this is the first Vespa to have a
four-stroke, four-valve, liquid-cooled engine, as well as 12-inch
wheels, a two-disc brake system and a 20 hp maximum power output.
This allows for exceptional agility and ease-of-use, especially in
city riding, and an engine configuration that offers top performance,
brilliant acceleration and a maximum speed of over 70 mph. The Granturismo
exceeds CARB (California Air Resources Board) standards,America’s
most stringent regulations regarding noise and exhaust emissions.
“In additional to the Granturismo’s driving performance,
its classic Vespa design is familiar and appealing to the American
consumer,” said Mr. Sambuy. “One look and you can tell
it's a Vespa. The Granturismo is meant to satisfy the most advanced
and demanding standards of performance and comfort; while simultaneously
satisfying the ‘It has to be a Vespa’ need of those who
want something that reflects a specific personality and lifestyle,
rather than just a scooter.”
Available at authorized Vespa dealers throughout the U.S., the Granturismo
is available in three fashionable colors that will emphasize each
owner’s sense of style: Steel Gray, Black, and Vintage Green.
The suggested retail price of the Granturismo is $4899. For more information
on the Granturismo and its availability contact your local Vespa dealer.
