Engineered by Kymco for the allround motorcycle segment, the 2019 Kymco Spade 150 features a 149.4 cc (9.1 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 12.5 HP (9.1 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 10.9 Nm (8 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 83.7 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 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 Spade 150 measures 112.8 kg (249 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (9.02 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 711 mm (28 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,199 mm (47.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 6.06-liter (1.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.48 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 244 km (152 miles) between fill-ups.
