Sym Citycom 300
The SYM Citycom 300 was introduced by Taiwanese manufacturer SYM (Sanyang Motor) around 2008 as a maxi-scooter aimed at urban commuters and touring riders seeking comfort and practicality. It was notable for featuring ABS as standard equipment at a time when this was uncommon in the scooter segment, along with a large underseat storage compartment and twin rear shock absorbers. The Citycom 300 positioned SYM as a competitive alternative to European maxi-scooters at a more accessible price point, gaining popularity in Asian and European markets.
