The 2025 Vespa S 125 arrives with classic Vespa charm plus subtle updates: it keeps the iconic steel monocoque body and flowing curves of the S-series but adopts new details like a trapezoidal LED headlamp (replacing the old oval lamp) for a sportier look, along with fresh color schemes (including matte dual-tones and a special Oro gold edition) and updated graphics that give it a more modern, premium feel. The cockpit largely stays retro, with an analogue speedometer and fuel gauge flanking a small digital display, but top Tech trims add a 5-inch full-color TFT dashboard (with Bluetooth and turn-by-turn navigation), keyless ignition and a USB charging port for smart connectivity. Comfort is enhanced by a newly shaped, more cushioned seat (with an ergonomic step-up design), a flat floorboard with a recessed footwell, and conveniences like a spacious under-seat trunk (big enough for a half-face helmet) plus a front bag-hook. Under the skin, the S 125 uses a refined 124.45cc single-cylinder 3-valve SOHC engine (air-cooled, fuel-injected) tuned to about 9.3–9.5 bhp at 7,100 rpm and 10.1 Nm of torque (a slight bump over the old model). Mated to a CVT, this delivers smooth city acceleration (about 0–60 km/h in ~8.6 seconds) and a top speed in the mid-80s km/h range, with fuel economy claimed around 45 km/L. The suspension is Vespa’s aircraft-inspired single-sided front fork (with anti-dive geometry) and a four-stage adjustable rear shock, giving a balanced, comfortable ride; safety gear includes a 200mm front disc brake (with a Combined Braking System) and a 140mm rear drum, while bright LED lighting front and rear improves visibility.
