Rider Profile

Best ForIdeal for beginners or returning riders, including those with only a scooter license, thanks to its low speed and fully automatic operation.
PurposeBuilt purely for quiet, emission-free urban commuting and short errands rather than any kind of performance riding.
Rider FitVery light and low-slung, making it easy for shorter or less physically strong riders to handle at a stop and in tight city maneuvers.
CharacterA tech-forward, eco-conscious city runabout that trades power and range for silence, instant torque off the line, and effortless around-town usability.
Not Ideal ForNot suitable for highway travel, long-distance touring, or riders who want any real sense of speed or excitement.

2019 Vespa Elettrica Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2019 Vespa Elettrica, with a moderate knee angle of around 100 degrees and a slightly forward riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
