KYMCO USA has released its 2013 lineup, which includes four all-new scooters that range from a lightweight and agile 50cc commuter to a quick and comfortable 500cc tourer.
Compagno 50i/110i
The Compagno 50i (MSRP $2,599) and Compagno 110i ($2,999) offer a popular, classic design with the inner workings of a modern machine.
The Compagno 50i is motivated by an air-cooled 49.5cc three-valve, fuel-injectedSOHC engine that delivers enough power to safely traverse the surface streets of any community. Designed with a low 29-inch seat height, the 189-lb. scoot should prove enjoyable to operate for novice and experienced riders alike. Amenities include underseat storage, LCD digital fuel gauge and clock, foldaway passenger pegs, magnetic key lock and a secured gas cap offering access to a 1.45-gallon fuel tank. The Compagno 50i is available in black or white, both colors highlighted by silver accents.
With all of the features and amenities of the Compagno 50i but a more powerful air-cooled 112cc four-valve fuel-injected SOHC engine, the Compagno 110i is available in light blue or Metallic Mocha.
Movie 150
A modern mid-size urban commuter in an affordable package, the Movie 150 ($3,199) is powered by a carbed and air-cooled 149cc 4-valve 4-stroke SOHC engine producing 13.5 hp.
Weighing in at only 250 lbs. (dry), the Movie 150 rolls on 110/70-12 front and 130/70-12 rear tires, features single disc front and rear brakes, maintains a vast storage space under its 30.7-inch seat height, and is outfitted with a speedometer, odometer, clock and fuel gauge. The Movie 150 is available in Tangerine or black, both with red performance-accented rear suspension spring and brake calipers.
Xciting 500 Ri ABS
The newly designed Xciting 500 Ri ABS ($6,899), KYMCO USA’s largest displacement premium model for 2013, is powered by a 38 hp fuel injected and liquid cooled 499cc DOHC engine and is rich on amenities, including underseat storage large enough for a backpack or helmet and jacket, a lockable glove box, useful 12v accessory outlet, and traditional gauges as well as clock, odometer, multi-function trip meter, and fuel and temperature sensors.
The 440-lb. scooter offers an easy-to-maneuver 61.8-inch wheelbase and 30.7-inch seat height that can accommodate a variety of rider sizes. Further aiding maneuverability is a telescopic front fork and dual adjustable hydraulic shocks, bump-absorbing 120/70-15 front and 150/70-14 rear tires, and a 3.38-gallon fuel tank that is slung low to optimize center of gravity.
Braking is supplied by dual discs with twin-pot calipers up front and a single disc with dual piston caliper in the rear. As the model name suggests, assistance is provided by a new generation Bosch ABS. And, once stopped, a hand-pull parking brake locks the entire package into place.
The Xciting 500 Ri ABS is available in grey or gold, both with red performance-accented rear suspension spring and brake calipers.
In addition to the four models highlighted, the 2013 lineup is rounded out by the returning Downtown 200i ($5,199) and Downtown 300i ($5,599); People GT 200i ($4,899) and People GT 300i ($5,399); Like 200i ($2,699) and Like 200i LX ($2,799); and Agility 125 ($1,899) and Super 8 150 ($2,499).
