Key Highlights
  • The Vespa Racing Sixties was first shown at the 2020 Auto Expo
  • It shares its engine specifications with the BS6 Vespa SXL 150
  • It will be launched in India on September 1, 2020

Piaggio is all set to launch the Vespa Racing Sixties scooter on September 1, 2020. The scooter will have a limited run of production and it is based on the BS6 Vespa SXL 150. It was first showcased at the 2020 Auto Expo alongside other BS6 Vespa models. Currently, the BS6 Piaggio Vespa SXL 150 costs about Rs. 1.26 lakh, so we could expect the Racing Sixties model to carry a premium of maybe Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 7,000 over the regular model. For a 150 cc scooter, the price will be quite steep. The scooter was supposed to be launched much earlier, but the company's plans were put on hold due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
