Vespa Gtv 300
The Vespa Gtv 300 has a top speed of 115 km/h, produces 21.4 hp and weighs 160 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
A Vespa GTV 300 foi introduzida pela Piaggio em 2006 como parte da família GTS/GTV, com a variante de motor de 300 cc chegando por volta de 2008-2009, representando a scooter Vespa mais potente da linha moderna. O GTV (Gran Turismo Vintage) se distingue do GTS com dicas de estilo retrô inspiradas nas clássicas Vespas dos anos 60, incluindo uma nacela de farol arredondada, espelhos em forma de lágrima e emblemas vintage. É notável por ser uma das scooters de grande cilindrada mais premium e poderosas da história da Vespa, combinando injeção de combustível moderna e tecnologia ABS com a icônica herança de design italiano.

O que os compradores devem saber
Reliable Fuel-Injected Engine
The GTV 300 uses a proven 278cc single-cylinder fuel-injected engine that requires minimal maintenance and delivers consistent performance. With proper servicing every 3,000–4,000 miles, owners report engines lasting well beyond 30,000 miles.
Watch the CVT Belt
The continuously variable transmission (CVT) drive belt is a known wear item that should be inspected every 8,000 miles and replaced around 12,000–15,000 miles. A neglected belt can snap unexpectedly, leaving you stranded and causing secondary damage.
Strong Resale Value
Vespa's iconic brand recognition and the GTV 300's retro styling help it hold resale value significantly better than most scooters — often retaining 60–70% of its value after three years. Limited production numbers compared to mainstream models also support higher used pricing.

"A scooter mais bonita que o dinheiro poderia comprar, na maioria das vezes."
O GTV 300 é realmente impressionante em metal — a Vespa acertou em cheio os detalhes cromados, os painéis da carroceria em estilo alforje e a silhueta de Audrey Hepburn de uma forma que faz as pessoas pararem você nos semáforos. Na estrada, o motor QUASAR funciona suavemente em baixas rotações e o CVT se adapta perfeitamente ao ritmo da cidade, embora acima de 90 km/h ele fique visivelmente sem fôlego e as rampas de acesso às rodovias exijam paciência. A combinação única de disco dianteiro e tambor traseiro é adequada para a época, mas não é impressionante em condições úmidas, e o chassi monocoque de aço transmite imperfeições na estrada mais do que você esperaria de uma máquina de 161 kg. Os custos de propriedade pesam: a manutenção do revendedor é cara, as peças não são baratas e os primeiros sistemas de injeção de combustível desenvolveram uma hesitação meticulosa de partida a frio que a Vespa demorou a reconhecer.

Avaliação do comprador usado
"Buy the best example you can find and enjoy every mile."
$4,500-$7,500 usedThe GTV 300 is Vespa's fashion statement wearing a motorcycle price tag, and honestly? It earns most of that premium. The 278cc single pulls smoothly through town and holds 70mph on the highway without drama, though it starts breathing hard above that. Build quality is genuinely impressive — cast aluminum bodywork, quality switchgear, and that gorgeous retro chrome work holds up beautifully on well-maintained examples. It rides on a proper steel monocoque frame, not cheap plastic like most scoots, and you feel that solidity immediately. Buying used, inspect the body panels obsessively — they're expensive to replace and owners treat these as fashion accessories, not tools. Check the automatic transmission fluid history and look for jerky low-speed engagement, a sign of neglect. The CVT belt needs replacing every 12,000 miles and many previous owners skip it. Also budget for the dealer-only service schedule; independent mechanics avoid them.
