Vespa S to launch in India by year end :: TheMech.in

Piaggio is planning to add a third scooter to its Vespa line-up with the launch of a sportier version of the Vespa VX called the Vespa S by end of 2013

After entering the scooter segment with its Vespa which was touted as a premium scooter, Piaggio went one step up ahead recently with the launch of a disc brake variant called the VX (Vespa VX launched). News has now come in that they would be launching a sportier variant of the VX titled Vespa S by the end of the year. The major distinctive visual feature of the Vespa S is its 1970s-styled square headlights in contrast to the round one found on the standard Vespa and VX.

To distinguish the scooter further, the mudguard on the scooter has been cut back further to reveal more of the front suspension and the 5-spoke alloys. Also the seat profile has been changed. The instrument cluster has been re-designed to add to its retro charm and sports an analogue speedometer and fuel gauge, digital clock and different tell-tale lights.
