Technical Overview
2017 Kymco City Plus 50 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Kymco for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2017 Kymco City Plus 50 pairs a 49 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.8 HP (2.7 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 3.2 Nm (2.4 lb-ft) at 4,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 39.0 x 41.0 mm (1.5 x 1.6 inches).
On the scales, the City Plus 50 measures 108 kg (238 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 760 mm (29.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,325 mm (52.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 48 km/h (30 mph).
