KYMCO Downtown 300i
With the open road performance of a maxi scooter and sport bike agility, the Downtown 300i delivers the ultimate scooter riding experience. This new entry in the KYMCO Scooter family is powered by an all new 4-valve Electronic Fuel Injected engine coupled to an agile, responsive, light weight dual cradle steel chassis. The onboard carrying capacity of the Downtown 300i offers all the space you need. A lighted, underseat storage space is big enough for two helmets and a watertight console compartment for cell phone storage, equipped with a 12V accessory outlet for charging your phone, is right at your fingertips, satisfying all your daily commuting needs. Add an optional top case and your daily commuter ride turns into a weekend touring machine. The Downtown 300i: class leading performance and styling plus great fuel economy too. Choose from three elegant color options: Pearl White, Silver or Burnt Orange.

KYMCO Like 200i
After the success of the Like 50 debut last fall, the anticipation of a larger displacement vintage styled option was growing. Welcome the new Like 200i. The perfect combination of classic vintage nostalgia and KYMCO modern technology and reliability is now in a fast, agile mid range displacement scooter. Experience true 2-up performance with a powerful Electronic Fuel Injected engine. With plenty of underseat storage, along with a color matched top box as standard equipment for groceries and packages, you’ll be able to get your errands done and have fun at the same time! Available in three classic colors: Black, Red and Ivory. The Like 200i and Like 50 uniquely blend agility, performance and economy.

KYMCO Super 8 50 2T
Building on the popularity and success of the Super 8 Sport styled series scooter, KYMCO brings you the Super 8 50 2T. From its introduction into the US market, the Super 8’s overall performance, attention grabbing graphics and aggressive sport bike attitude have made it both IndyCar and NHRA Race Team’s pit scooter of choice. The new 2-stroke, oil injected, EPA compliant engine coupled with CVT automatic transmission add up to unbelievable performance, fuel economy and value. Available in three bold race color combinations of Red/White, Blue/White and Black/Silver.

The company’s partner in the United States is KYMCO USA with headquarters, marketing and distribution centered in Spartanburg, South Carolina.
