At the heart of the 2009 Hyosung MS3 250 scooter motorcycle, Hyosung features a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 24.7 HP (18 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 99.2 HP per liter, 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 MS3 250 measures 165 kg (364 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.15 HP/kg (6.68 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 750 mm (29.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,451 mm (57.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 9-liter (2.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
