Kymco Xciting 400

The Kymco Xciting 400 has a top speed of 155 km/h, produces 35 hp and weighs 218 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.2/10.

A Kymco Xciting 400 foi introduzida por volta de 2012 como uma evolução da linha de maxi-scooters da Kymco, sucedendo à Xciting 500 com um motor mais moderno de 399 cc para melhor atender às regulamentações de licenças A2 na Europa. Ela estabeleceu a Kymco como uma concorrente séria no segmento de maxi-scooters premium dominado pela Yamaha e pela Honda, oferecendo uma forte relação custo-benefício com características competitivas. A atualização do Xciting S 400 chegou por volta de 2018 com um estilo atualizado, uma tela TFT e eletrônicos aprimorados, consolidando ainda mais sua popularidade entre os ciclistas urbanos e de turismo.

O que os compradores devem saber

🔧

Watch the CVT Belt

The CVT drive belt is a known wear item that should be inspected every 8,000–10,000 km. Neglected belts can snap unexpectedly, so always ask for service records when buying used.

💰

Decent Resale Value

The Xciting 400 holds its value reasonably well in the maxi-scooter segment due to its reputation for durability and KYMCO's growing brand credibility. Used examples typically sell for 60–75% of new price within the first two years.

🛞

Sporty ABS Standard

The Xciting 400i comes equipped with dual-channel ABS and a 300mm front disc, a feature not all competitors offer in this class. This makes it a strong safety-focused choice for urban and highway riding.

Urban commuters wanting reliable, affordable maxi-scooter transport

"Solid, honest daily transport that won't embarrass your wallet."

$3,500-$5,500 used

The Xciting 400 is one of those scooters that genuinely surprises you. Kymco built something here that punches well above its budget price point — the CBS braking is competent, that 399cc single pulls cleanly from low revs, and the riding position is genuinely comfortable for urban commuting or light touring. I've seen them crack 85mph without drama, which is more than most maxi-scooter buyers actually need. Used examples between 2015-2020 are where you want to be hunting. Watch for neglected final drive belts — they're cheap to replace but owners ignore them — and check the front forks for oil weeping. The underseat storage is genuinely useful, but the center stand pivot pins corrode badly in wet climates. Budget for new tyres almost immediately on anything over 8,000 miles. Honestly? For the money, it's hard to argue with. It's not a Forza or T-Max, and Kymco dealers can be scarce, but as a practical, affordable daily rider it does the job without embarrassing itself.
