Vespa Unveiled Its 2027 Electric Range at EICMA
Vespa has unveiled its 2027 electric range at EICMA 2026, featuring the Primavera Elettrica, Sprint S Elettrica and Primavera Tech Elettrica with iconic Italian design and zero-tailpipe-emission technology.
Vespa has unveiled its new 2027 electric range at EICMA 2026, bringing together the brand’s unmistakable Italian styling and the latest developments in electric mobility. The line-up includes the Vespa Primavera Elettrica, Vespa Sprint S Elettrica and Vespa Primavera Tech Elettrica. Each model keeps Vespa’s familiar steel body, elegant proportions and distinctive character, while offering a quiet, smooth and more environmentally conscious riding experience.
The new electric range is powered by a zero-tailpipe-emission motor developed and manufactured in Italy by the Piaggio Group. Its modular design is intended to improve efficiency, lower energy consumption and provide more responsive acceleration, particularly when moving away from traffic lights or riding through busy city streets. The motor also avoids the use of rare-earth materials, reflecting Vespa’s focus on reducing the environmental impact of its technology.
The Vespa Primavera Elettrica and Vespa Sprint S Elettrica are classified as mopeds, with a top speed of 45 km/h. Both models can deliver a claimed range of up to 85 km in ECO mode, making them suitable for daily urban journeys. Their removable battery is another practical feature, allowing riders to charge it more conveniently when a dedicated charging point is not available.
For riders who want higher performance and greater range, the Vespa Primavera Tech Elettrica is classified as a motorcycle. It reaches a top speed of 67 km/h and offers up to 100 km of range in ECO mode. Under the WMTC test cycle, its range is rated at 90 km. The model also benefits from an updated Vehicle Management System, which contributes to improved efficiency and a 12.5 percent increase in range compared with the earlier version.
Technology is a key part of the Primavera Tech package. It features a 5-inch digital TFT display that shows riding information such as remaining range, battery status, energy recovery levels and navigation directions. The VESPA MIA multimedia system enables smartphone connectivity, allowing riders to manage calls and music through the handlebar controls. A USB port is also included for charging smartphones and other devices.
Charging has been made more efficient as well. The Primavera Tech’s new charger reduces energy consumption from the mains by 17 percent and can charge the battery from 0 to 80 percent in approximately two and a half hours. Its Maintenance function helps preserve the battery when the scooter is not used for an extended period, while the standard Piaggio Keyless system allows keyless starting and remote seat opening.
With the 2027 electric range, Vespa is extending its heritage into a more connected and sustainable future. The new models show that electric mobility does not have to compromise on design or personality, offering a combination of classic Vespa style, practical performance and technology designed for modern city life.
