At the heart of the 2016 Geely JL300T-8 scooter motorcycle, Geely utilizes a 275.6 cc (16.8 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 21.5 HP (15.7 kW) at 6,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 23 Nm (17 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 78 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 rpm) and peak power (6,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the JL300T-8 measures 180 kg (397 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.37 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,630 mm (64.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 120 km/h (75 mph).
