New Generation Vespa Scooters with Advanced Engines Debut in Nepal

If there's one name in scooters that instantly sparks imagery of European charm and urban sophistication, it’s Vespa. More than just a two-wheeler, Vespa has long been a style statement, graceful in design, practical in utility, and aspirational in brand presence.

And now, Vespa Nepal is taking things up a notch.

Delta Autocorp Pvt. Ltd., the official distributor for Vespa in Nepal, has just introduced a new generation of Vespa scooters into the Nepali market. This lineup isn’t just about aesthetics or brand appeal, it’s a serious upgrade under the hood too. The new range comes equipped with BS-VI OBD II Stage B compliant engines, aligning with global emissions standards while offering improved performance and longevity.

This marks a significant moment for the two-wheeler segment in Nepal, where luxury scooters are no longer a niche, but a growing lifestyle choice.

Design

While Vespa has always maintained its retro-modern visual signature, the new scooters introduced in Nepal carry that legacy forward with fresh confidence. The silhouettes remain sleek and curvaceous, true to the brand’s Italian roots, but the new color options and finishes lend a contemporary boldness that will likely appeal to both young riders and design-conscious professionals.

Three variants headline this new portfolio:

• Vespa ZX 125

• Vespa 125

• Vespa S 125

Each model brings distinct styling cues. The ZX 125 leans more classic, while the Vespa S 125, with its sportier stance and aggressive cuts, caters to the adventurous urban commuter. From glossy greens to punchy oranges and pastel Provenzas, the palette options reflect Vespa’s focus on individuality.

This blend of minimalistic lines and vibrant character makes Vespa scooters instantly recognizable, and now, even more desirable.

Engine & Performance

The highlight of this launch is Vespa's new engine tech, BS-VI OBD II Stage B compliance. While that may sound like a string of regulations, here’s why it matters:

This engine update aligns Vespa with the latest global emissions and diagnostics standards. The On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) Stage B capability means the scooter can actively monitor emission levels and alert riders to any malfunction, contributing not just to environmental responsibility but also to long-term maintenance awareness.

Performance-wise, these are 125cc engines engineered for smooth acceleration, better throttle response, and efficient city navigation. Whether you're weaving through Kathmandu’s narrow lanes or cruising long stretches across the valley, the upgraded engine promises a balance of power and fuel economy. And thanks to continuous electronic diagnostics, riders will now benefit from a smarter, cleaner, and more responsive riding experience.

Features

While Vespa’s signature charm is its timeless exterior, it doesn’t skimp on features either. The new models continue to focus on:

• Enhanced Suspension for more stable rides

• Improved Braking Systems for quick stops and better road grip

• Premium Leatherette Seats for added comfort

• Refined Instrument Cluster for clear rider information

• USB Charging Port in some variants for device convenience

While other scooters may try to overcomplicate the ride experience, Vespa keeps it premium and user-centric. It’s this blend of simplicity and elegance that sets it apart.
