Final Thoughts: Premium Pricing for a Lifestyle Statement
With the introduction of the 2025 lineup, Vespa has streamlined its branding by replacing the previous 'SXL' and 'VXL' monikers with simpler 'Vespa' and 'Vespa S' names. The pricing positions Vespa scooters as premium offerings, competing not just with standard commuter scooters like the TVS Jupiter 125, Suzuki Access 125, and Yamaha Fascino 125, but also as lifestyle vehicles that cater to enthusiasts who appreciate classic aesthetics combined with modern technology.
Despite its higher price tag, Vespa continues to attract a niche audience looking for exclusivity, superior build quality, and a legacy of Italian craftsmanship. The new range solidifies Vespa’s presence as a premium scooter brand in the Indian market.
