Vespa 946
The Vespa 946 has a top speed of 105 km/h, produces 12.7 hp and weighs 131 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
La Vespa 946 a été présentée en 2013 en tant que scooter haut de gamme inspiré du patrimoine, célébrant le 60e anniversaire du film emblématique « Roman Holiday » d'Audrey Hepburn et l'héritage historique de Vespa. Nommée d'après l'année 1946, date de naissance de la Vespa originale, elle présente une carrosserie finie à la main et un design rétro-moderne fortement influencé par le prototype MP6 classique. Il se distingue par le fait qu'il s'agit de l'un des scooters de production les plus luxueux et les plus méticuleusement conçus jamais fabriqués, positionné comme une pièce de collection plutôt que comme un véhicule de transport ordinaire.

Ce que les acheteurs doivent savoir
Strong Resale Value
The Vespa 946 holds its value exceptionally well due to limited production numbers and collectible status. Well-maintained examples often retain 70-80% of their original value after several years.
Watch the Electronics
The 946's advanced electronics and ABS system can be costly to repair if neglected, so always verify service history. Faulty throttle-by-wire sensors are a known issue on earlier models.
Aluminum Body Advantage
Unlike most modern scooters, the 946 features a hand-crafted steel and aluminum body that resists rust and flexing far better than plastic alternatives. This premium construction directly contributes to its long-term durability and collectibility.

Évaluation d'un acheteur d'occasion
"A stunning urban sculpture that rewards patient, city-bound riders who prioritize style."
$6,000-$10,000 usedThe 946 is basically wearable art that happens to have an engine. Named after the year Piaggio was founded, it's built to a standard you simply don't see in this segment — aluminum bodywork, proper leather saddle, machined details everywhere. Used examples from early production years had some fuel injection hiccups and the ABS can get temperamental if it's sat unused, so pull the service history before you hand over anything. Dealers treated these like jewelry, so most used examples are genuinely pampered. Riding it is a different conversation entirely. The 125cc engine is whisper-quiet and perfectly adequate for city commuting, but take it on an A-road and you'll be working hard to keep pace with traffic. It's not built for that, and pretending otherwise will just frustrate you. The handling is surprisingly precise for a twist-and-go, and the riding position is genuinely comfortable for shorter urban hops. Just budget for Piaggio main dealer servicing — independent shops often won't touch one.
