At the heart of the 2017 Kymco MXU 150 RL atv motorcycle, Kymco features a 151 cc (9.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11 HP (8 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 72.8 HP per liter, the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
