Engineered by Kymco for the atv motorcycle segment, the 2012 Kymco MXU 150 RL features a 151 cc (9.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 9.9 HP (7.2 kW) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 65.6 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the MXU 150 RL measures 174 kg (384 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.06 HP/kg (17.58 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.
