At the heart of the 2011 Hyosung MS3-250 scooter motorcycle, Hyosung pairs a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 25 HP (18.2 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22.2 Nm (16.4 lb-ft) at 6,900 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 100.4 HP per liter and a 1,600 rpm working window between peak torque (6,900 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 MS3-250 measures 154.7 kg (341 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.16 HP/kg (6.19 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 749 mm (29.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,501 mm (59.1 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 7.87-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
