Built around Kymco's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2013 Kymco Xciting 400i utilizes a 398 cc (24.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 35.5 HP (25.9 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 37 Nm (27.3 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 89.2 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 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 Xciting 400i measures 210 kg (463 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.17 HP/kg (5.92 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 768 mm (30.2 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,570 mm (61.8 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
