Engineered by Keeway for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2024 Keeway Vieste 300 features a 278.2 cc (17 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 18.8 HP (13.7 kW) at 6,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22 Nm (16.2 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 67.6 HP per liter and a 500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 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 Vieste 300 measures 139 kg (306 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (7.39 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,390 mm (54.7 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. 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).
