The hum of the city. The wind against your skin. The thrill of the ride. Vespa has long been synonymous with effortless elegance and urban freedom, and now, it takes innovation to a whole new level. It’s time that you’re introduced to the New Vespa Sprint Tech—a masterful blend of cutting-edge technology and the timeless aesthetic that has cemented Vespa’s status as a style icon for generations.
A Legacy Reimagined
Unveiled on February 8, 2025, at Antidote I’M Hotel Makati, the New Vespa Sprint Tech is a testament to the brand’s unwavering commitment to evolution without sacrificing its signature sophistication. At its core, this sleek machine is built to make city commuting not just efficient but exhilarating. As Willy Tee Ten, President of the Autohub Group, puts it: “The New Vespa Sprint Tech is a game-changer in urban mobility by seamlessly blending classic Vespa aesthetics with unparalleled performance.” With a price tag of PHP 275,000 for the 150-cc variant, this two-wheeled masterpiece is definitely going to make a statement.
Design That Turns Heads
The New Vespa Sprint Tech is designed to stand out, whether parked in the trendiest café or weaving through bustling streets. With bold new colorways—sleek black, warm grey, and an audacious fluo-green—it commands attention at every turn. But the real showstopper? The updated lighting system. A futuristic ‘Bike Finder’ function ensures the Vespa remains recognizable even from a distance, illuminating both sides of the leg shield back plate with a simple click.
A Smarter Way to Ride
Gone are the days of squinting at outdated dashboards. The New Vespa Sprint Tech boasts a 5-inch full-color TFT display, one of the most advanced instrument panels on the market. Whether in the golden light of day or under the neon glow of city nights, riders can easily navigate through their journey with clarity. And with seamless smartphone integration via the Vespa app or Vespa MIA device, staying connected on the go has never been easier. Think incoming calls, missed messages, social media notifications, and even your favorite music—right at your fingertips.
Navigation, Reinvented
For the first time in the Sprint range, Vespa introduces an integrated navigation system—a game-changer for riders who crave both adventure and efficiency. Set your destination via the Vespa app and let the dashboard guide you with turn-by-turn directions, estimated arrival times, and alternative route suggestions. Whether you’re heading to a meeting or chasing a sunset, your Vespa ensures you get there with style and precision.
Keyless Convenience
Imagine unlocking, locking, and starting your Vespa—all without fishing for your keys. The exclusive keyless system revolutionizes convenience, allowing riders to keep the key fob in their pocket while seamlessly interacting with the vehicle. A dedicated button even opens the underseat storage remotely. And with the ‘Bike Finder’ feature, your Vespa will never get lost in a sea of scooters again.
Performance, Elevated
Underneath its chic exterior, the New Vespa Sprint Tech is powered by a 155-cc i-get engine, delivering an exhilarating 8.9 kW at 7,250 rpm and a torque of 12.7 Nm at 5,750 rpm. Designed for agility, the Sprint Tech is fitted with a front disc brake with ABS, an automatic dry centrifugal clutch, and tubeless tires—ensuring a smooth, responsive, and secure ride through city streets.
The New Vespa Sprint Tech is more than just an upgrade. It fuses Vespa’s legendary charm with next-generation innovation, offering riders the perfect blend of luxury, practicality, and cutting-edge technology. Whether you’re a seasoned Vespa enthusiast or a newcomer looking for a ride that embodies both function and flair, this model is an invitation to experience the future—one stylish sprint at a time.
