Vespa Et4 150
The Vespa Et4 150 has a top speed of 105 km/h, produces 11 hp and weighs 115 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
A Vespa ET4 150 foi introduzida pela Piaggio em 1996 como parte da moderna série ET, marcando a transição da Vespa para uma scooter com motor de quatro tempos, mantendo seu estilo icônico. Foi notável por ser um dos primeiros Vespas a adotar um motor monocilíndrico de quatro tempos com injeção de combustível, tornando-o mais limpo e mais eficiente em termos de combustível do que seus antecessores de dois tempos. O ET4 150 foi vendido até cerca de 2005 e ajudou a revitalizar a marca Vespa entre os passageiros urbanos em todo o mundo.

O que os compradores devem saber
Reliable Rotax Engine
The ET4 150 uses a Rotax-sourced 4-stroke engine, a significant upgrade over older 2-stroke Vespas, offering smoother power and lower maintenance costs. With proper oil changes, these engines routinely exceed 30,000 miles.
Watch the Carb & Fuel System
Ethanol-blended fuels can degrade the carburetor and fuel lines on older ET4s, causing hard starting and rough idling. Always inspect these components and budget for a carb clean or rebuild if buying a neglected example.
Strong Resale Value
The ET4 150 holds its value well due to the iconic Vespa brand and its transition-era status as a practical, modern classic. Clean examples in good condition typically sell for $1,500–$3,000 depending on mileage and cosmetics.

Lançamento original do ET4 150 com motor Piaggio LEADER de 150 cc a 4 tempos, garfo dianteiro de um lado e estilo moderno.
"O charme italiano finalmente combinado com um motor adulto."
Depois de anos de Vespas de dois tempos que exigiam agitação constante, o ET4 150 parecia uma revelação: virar e sair, sem ritual de estrangulamento, sem pré-mistura de culpa. O motor LEADER sai suavemente da marcha lenta e permanece confortavelmente a 80 km/h durante todo o dia, sem o zumbido tenso que você recebia dos antigos bicos, embora 95 km/h seja um número muito teórico em qualquer coisa, menos em asfalto plano. Esse garfo dianteiro de um lado parece muito legal nas fotos, mas transmite as imperfeições da estrada com uma qualidade um pouco vaga e levemente de madeira que perturbará você no meio da esquina em um asfalto urbano irregular — é uma escolha de estilo que a Piaggio priorizou em vez da sensação. A praticidade é genuinamente boa: o armazenamento embaixo do assento engole um capacete integral, a carroceria de aço sofre golpes sem se estilhaçar e a economia de combustível em torno de 35 km/L torna os custos de operação ridiculamente baratos, mas os primeiros modelos de carburador tendem a inundar se deixados em repouso por mais de uma semana.

Avaliação do comprador usado
"Rewarding urban scooter if you buy one carefully maintained."
$1,500-$3,500 usedThe ET4 150 is genuinely charming in a way that makes you forgive its quirks — and trust me, there are quirks. Piaggio's rotax-derived engine pulls smoothly to about 60mph, which is honestly all you need for urban commuting. The bodywork is proper steel, not plastic, so it holds up well used but also means rust is your enemy on neglected examples. Check every panel seam and under the floorboard religiously before handing over cash. Electricals are the real headache on high-mileage units. Stators die, carburetors gum up from sitting, and finding a mechanic who actually knows Italian scooters outside major cities is harder than it should be. Budget $200-400 for a proper service immediately after purchase regardless of what the seller claims. The suspension is surprisingly composed for a scooter, and that classic Vespa silhouette genuinely never gets old — people will stop you at traffic lights wanting to chat. Buy one with documented service history and under 8,000 miles if you can find it. Walk away from anything that's been sitting more than a year without recent fuel system work.
