Positioned in Kymco's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2016 Kymco Venox 250i relies on a 252 cc (15.4 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 21.8 HP (15.9 kW) at 10,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 21 Nm (15.5 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 86.5 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (9,000 rpm) and peak power (10,500 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 Venox 250i measures 175 kg (386 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.03 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 725 mm (28.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,600 mm (63 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 105 km/h (65 mph).
