Vespa VXL 125 Full Specifications

The Vespa VXL 125 is built around a 124.45cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, 3-valve SOHC engine with Piaggio's fuel injection system. It produces 9.77 PS at 7,400 rpm and 10.11 Nm of torque at 5,600 rpm - figures that are competitive with the TVS Ntorq 125 (9.37 PS) and comfortably ahead of the Honda Activa 125 (8.3 PS). The transmission is a CVT automatic, meaning no clutch, no gears - pure twist-and-go.

The monocoque steel body is what makes the VXL 125 structurally different from every plastic-bodied rival. It is heavier but far more rigid - owners consistently note that the scooter feels planted and solid at 80+ km/h on highways, where lighter rivals can feel skittish.

On paper, the Vespa VXL 125 specs are competitive but not class-leading. The TVS Ntorq 125 Race XConnect variant adds Bluetooth connectivity and a larger 5.8-litre tank, and the Honda Activa 125 returns better ARAI mileage (47 kmpl). Where the VXL 125 wins is everything the spec sheet cannot capture: the structural feel of that steel chassis, the exhaust note, and the design heritage. The 2-year / 24,000 km warranty is standard for the segment. Service intervals are typically every 3,000 km or 3 months, whichever comes first.

Frequently Asked Questions

QWhat is the engine displacement of the Vespa VXL 125?▾

The Vespa VXL 125 is powered by a 124.45cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, 3-valve SOHC engine with Piaggio fuel injection. It produces 9.77 PS at 7,400 rpm and 10.11 Nm of torque at 5,600 rpm, paired with a CVT automatic transmission.

QWhat is the fuel efficiency of the Vespa VXL 125?▾

The ARAI-certified mileage of the Vespa VXL 125 is 45 kmpl. Real-world efficiency reported by owners is 38-42 kmpl in city conditions and 42-47 kmpl on open highways. The 7.4-litre fuel tank gives a usable range of approximately 300-330 km per fill.

QWhat are the kerb weight and dimensions of the Vespa VXL 125?▾

The Vespa VXL 125 weighs 115 kg kerb and measures 1,770 mm in length, 690 mm wide, and 1,140 mm tall, with a 1,290 mm wheelbase and 155 mm ground clearance. The seat height is 770 mm, which is accessible for most adult riders.

QDoes the Vespa VXL 125 have ABS?▾

No, the Vespa VXL 125 does not offer ABS on any variant. The CBS (Combined Braking System) variant links both brakes for more balanced deceleration, but there is no anti-lock mechanism. The front brake is a 200mm ventilated disc; the rear is a 140mm drum.

QWhat suspension setup does the Vespa VXL 125 use?▾

The Vespa VXL 125 uses a single-side arm suspension at the front - a Vespa design signature that allows the distinctive one-sided wheel mounting - and a hydraulic monoshock at the rear. The setup delivers a composed ride on smooth tarmac but is firmer than mass-market rivals on broken roads.
