Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Solid Engine Reliability
The KYMCO People GTi 300 uses a proven single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine known for durability when maintained properly. Regular valve clearance checks and coolant changes are key to long engine life.
Watch the CVT Belt
The continuously variable transmission belt is a common wear item on this scooter and should be inspected every 8,000–10,000 miles. A neglected belt can snap unexpectedly, leaving you stranded.
Modest Resale Value
KYMCO scooters generally depreciate faster than Japanese competitors like Honda or Yamaha, making used examples very affordable for buyers. This also means you can find well-maintained used units at a significant discount.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"Solid urban commuter if you buy carefully and budget for maintenance."
$2,500-$4,500 usedThe People GTi 300 sits in that awkward middle ground — too big for city-only duties, not quite sorted enough for serious touring. That said, if you find a clean one under 15k miles, it's genuinely good value. The 278cc liquid-cooled single pulls decently to about 75mph before running out of breath, and fuel economy hovers around 70mpg, which is hard to argue with. Build quality is better than the Kymco badge gets credit for. The real issues surface on used examples. Check the front fork seals obsessively — they weep early and previous owners often ignore it. CVT belts need replacing around 8,000 miles and sellers rarely have documentation. The underseat storage feels massive until you actually try to fit a full-face helmet. Suspension is tuned for someone considerably lighter than the average rider, so if you're over 180lbs it gets bouncy fast. For commuting 20-40 miles daily with occasional weekend runs, it earns its money. Just budget a few hundred upfront for consumables regardless of claimed service history.
