Positioned in Hyosung's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2013 Hyosung GT250 relies on a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 27 HP (19.7 kW) at 10,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22.7 Nm (16.7 lb-ft) at 8,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 108.4 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (8,000 rpm) and peak power (10,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the GT250 measures 149.7 kg (330 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.18 HP/kg (5.54 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 762 mm (30 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,435 mm (56.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.02 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 464 km (288 miles) between fill-ups.
