Lo que los compradores deben saber
Strong Resale Value
Vespa scooters historically retain 60-70% of their value after 3 years, outperforming most Asian competitors. The S 150's classic styling keeps demand consistently high in the used market.
Watch the Carb & Fuel System
The S 150's carbureted engine is prone to gumming if left sitting unused for extended periods. Always inspect the carburetor and fuel lines carefully on any used example.
All-Steel Monocoque Body
Unlike plastic-bodied rivals, the Vespa S 150 features a full steel unibody construction that is more durable and rust-resistant when properly maintained. This also makes it significantly easier to repair after minor dents or scratches.

Lanzado como un scooter de 4 tiempos y 150 cc de estilo retro con detalles cromados, suspensión trasera de un solo amortiguador e inyección de combustible moderna.
"Precioso scooter urbano que castiga la ambición en las carreteras."
La S 150 tiene un aspecto sensacional estacionada frente a una cafetería, y eso es realmente la mitad de la propuesta de valor: la gente se detiene y pregunta por ella constantemente. En la ciudad es serena e inspira confianza, el chasis monocasco de acero absorbe el abuso urbano y la inyección de combustible hace que el frío arranque siempre de forma limpia. Pero si lo conduces a una carretera principal de 90 km/h, conseguirás alcanzar todas las revoluciones de esos 7,5 CV mientras los camiones pasan por delante de ti: 95 km/h es un límite teórico, no una conducción cómoda. El amortiguador trasero único también transmite los golpes bruscos directamente a la columna vertebral en un asfalto urbano roto, y el mantenimiento en concesionario cuesta más de lo que el patinete justifica mecánicamente.
Pros
Contras
Se actualizó para cumplir con las emisiones Euro 4, se perfeccionó el mapeo del motor y se mejoró el frenado con la opción ABS añadida en algunos mercados.
Reseña de un comprador usado
"Style-forward city scooter that rewards diligent maintenance and punishes neglect."
$1,800-$3,500 usedThe Vespa S 150 is one of those scooters that looks better than it rides, and I mean that in the nicest possible way. It's genuinely pretty — that retro-sport styling ages well — but don't expect sportbike performance from a 150cc single. What you get is smooth, predictable city transport that starts reliably and handles urban traffic with surprising confidence. The steel monocoque frame feels planted, and the front drum/rear drum setup on older models is adequate if uninspiring. Buying used, the CVT belt is your first concern — budget for replacement if the seller can't prove recent service. These Piaggio engines are bulletproof if maintained but punishing when neglected. Check for rust around the floorboard and under the seat compartment, classic weak points. Parts pricing will sting you; this isn't a Honda where everything's cheap and available everywhere. Find a dealer who knows Italian scooters before committing.
