Engineered by Modenas for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2017 Modenas Elegan 250 relies on a 249.1 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 22.1 HP (16.2 kW) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 88.7 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 Elegan 250 measures 193 kg (425 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (8.73 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,540 mm (60.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12.5-liter (3.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
