Piaggio Vespa Sprint 125
The Vespa Sprint was first introduced in 1965 as a sportier variant of the classic Vespa line, featuring a sleeker body and higher performance engine. The modern Vespa Sprint 125 was relaunched in 2014 as part of Piaggio's contemporary lineup, combining retro styling with modern fuel-injected technology and ABS. It remains one of the most iconic urban scooters globally, celebrated for its Italian design heritage and practical city performance.

What Buyers Should Know
Strong Resale Value
The Vespa Sprint 125 holds its value exceptionally well compared to rival scooters, often retaining 70-80% of its value after 3 years. Its iconic Italian brand appeal keeps demand consistently high on the used market.
Watch the CVT Belt
The CVT drive belt is a known wear item that should be inspected every 8,000-10,000 km, as neglected belts can snap and leave you stranded. Always ask a used seller for its service history and belt replacement records.
ABS & Traction Control
The Sprint 125 comes equipped with ABS and Piaggio's ASR traction control as standard, which is rare at this engine size and price point. This makes it significantly safer in wet urban conditions compared to most competitors.
