Sym Citycom 300
The Sym Citycom 300 has a top speed of 125 km/h, produces 22 hp and weighs 198 kg. Motoryk rates it 7/10.
A SYM Citycom 300 foi introduzida pela fabricante taiwanesa SYM (Sanyang Motor) por volta de 2008 como uma maxi-scooter destinada a passageiros urbanos e ciclistas de turismo que buscam conforto e praticidade. Era notável por usar o ABS como equipamento padrão em uma época em que isso era incomum no segmento de scooters, junto com um grande compartimento de armazenamento embaixo do assento e dois amortecedores traseiros. O Citycom 300 posicionou a SYM como uma alternativa competitiva às maxi-scooters europeias a um preço mais acessível, ganhando popularidade nos mercados asiático e europeu.

O que os compradores devem saber
Reliable Taiwanese Engineering
The CityCom 300 uses a proven single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine known for longevity when serviced regularly. SYM has a strong reputation for building durable, low-maintenance scooters at competitive price points.
Watch the Fuel System
Owners report occasional fuel injector clogging, especially if the scooter sits unused for extended periods. Using fresh fuel and a quality fuel stabilizer during storage helps prevent this common issue.
Modest Resale Value
As a lesser-known brand in Western markets, the CityCom 300 depreciates faster than Honda or Yamaha competitors, which actually makes used examples excellent value for budget-conscious buyers.
Gerações e especificações por ano
Lançamento do motor original de 278 cc refrigerado a líquido, frenagem CBS, armazenamento embaixo do assento e estilo maxi-scooter.
"Dá um soco acima do distintivo, desilude acima de 100 km/h."
A CityCom 300 me enganou na primeira semana — parece uma scooter de €6.000 e custa metade disso, e nas ruas da cidade a unidade de 263 cc refrigerada a líquido puxa com precisão suficiente para que você esqueça a folha de especificações. A frenagem da CBS inspira confiança na chuva, e o armazenamento embaixo do assento engole um capacete integral sem discussão. Mas empurre-o para uma faixa de rodagem dupla e o peso total de 196 kg se torna uma conversa honesta: acima de 100 km/h, o motor está funcionando duro, o ruído do vento é significativo e os caminhões que passam parecem um compromisso genuíno. A qualidade de construção da SYM já era melhor do que o preço sugerido, mas os primeiros exemplos apresentavam problemas de congelamento de carboidratos em climas frios e o pivô central do suporte se desgastava rapidamente se você carregasse a caixa de assento regularmente.

Avaliação do comprador usado
"Underrated urban commuter that rewards the savvy used buyer."
$2,500-$4,500 usedThe SYM Citycom 300 is one of those scooters that punches above its badge recognition. Taiwanese build quality is genuinely solid — better than you'd expect at this price point — and the 278cc engine pulls smoothly through city traffic without drama. Underseat storage is massive, the 13-inch wheels handle urban potholes decently, and fuel economy hovers around 70mpg. Not bad for a maxi-scooter that'll keep pace with urban traffic flows. Used examples need careful inspection though. Check the front suspension — they can develop clunks that dealers dismiss but owners hate. The ABS units on earlier models had reliability gremlins, so test them properly. Belt drive means you want service records; a neglected variator will kill performance and your wallet. Also expect plastic panels to be scratched — most owners treat these as daily beaters, not show pieces. Resale value is weak, which works in your favor buying used. Parts availability outside urban centres is patchy, so factor that in if you're rural.
