visor.ph, 14 Feb '25
Vespa has introduced its latest model, the all-new Sprint Tech, to the Philippine market at an event in Makati. This new offering blends the brand's signature design language with contemporary technological features.
Willy Tee Ten, president of distributor Autohub Group, spoke at the launch, highlighting the Sprint Tech's fusion of classic Vespa aesthetics with enhanced performance. He emphasised that the model embodies freedom and innovation-core values associated with the Vespa brand.
The 150cc variant of the new Vespa Sprint Tech is priced at PHP 275,000 (US$ 4,750).
The Sprint Tech's design includes new colour options, such as black, warm grey, and a distinctive fluo-green.
The lighting system has been updated with new lights on the leg shield's back plate. It also features a Bike Finder function, which activates the turn indicators to help locate the scooter.
A significant upgrade is the introduction of a five-inch full-colour TFT dashboard, offering both day and night modes while providing riders with a range of information.
When connected to a smartphone via the Vespa app or the Vespa MIA device, the dashboard can display notifications for incoming calls, missed calls, messages, music management, and social media updates.
Notably, the Sprint Tech now integrates turn-by-turn GPS navigation. Riders can set their destination within the app, and navigation details including distance, estimated arrival time, and route options are displayed on the scooter's dashboard.
Another key feature of the Sprint Tech is its keyless system, allowing riders to start the scooter without removing the key fob from their pocket. The key fob also includes buttons to unlock the under-seat storage and activate the Bike Finder feature.
