Positioned in Kymco's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2010 Kymco Nexxon 125 E3 utilizes a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 8 HP (5.9 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 8.5 Nm (6.3 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 4-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 64.5 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 rpm) and peak power (7,500 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 Nexxon 125 E3 measures 97 kg (214 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.13 kg per horsepower). The 4-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
