2017 GTV 300
The Vespa GTV 300 ABS stands out for refinement: in its forms and functions, reinterpreting the hallmark elements of 1950's and 60's Vespa models. The headlight mounted on the front mudguard of the GTV 300 i.e. is a reference to some of the first Vespas to come off the production line in Pontedera, Italy. The handlebar is a reference to the past as well - it is the same exposed metal tube seen on the earliest Vespas that now appears on the Vespa GTV 300 i.e. The two-seat saddle in eco-leather is elegant and comfortable, and as on the original Vespas, is split into two separate seats, while the precision crafted piping emphasizes its silhouette.
Powered by a modern and powerful 300cc liquid cooled four-stroke four-valve engine, the Vespa GTV 300 i.e. offers unrivaled flexibility and responsiveness due to the use of fuel injection, which also significantly lowers fuel consumption and emissions.
Freshly Updated, the GTV now mirrors the new GTS ABS with added anti-lock braking system and ASR traction control. The updated front suspension offers more control while turning – taking more advantage of this Vespa's taught chassis. All new 2015 GTVs offer Vespa's Multimedia Platform for connectivity with your smartphone!
