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.
On the scales, the MXU 150 RL measures 175 kg (386 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.06 HP/kg (15.91 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, combined with a 1,115 mm (43.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
