Hated & bashed by die-hard 2-stroke fans, enthusiasm increases among those who were allowed to test drive them - we're talking about classic Vespa scooters, which are equipped with electric motors from EvoRetrofit Scooter Center Open day for test drives were available.

EvoRetrovit has managed to design an electric motor that fits plug & play into the original frame of a classic Vespa - and that with a TÜV certificate! An old 50 with 45 km / h approval can then even drive 55 km / h with the new drive. The batteries are removable and easy to charge at home or in the garage.
