Built around Peugeot's scooter motorcycle platform, the 2016 Peugeot Citystar 125 features a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 10.7 HP (7.8 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 8.9 Nm (6.6 lb-ft) at 7,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 85.9 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 Citystar 125 measures 145 kg (320 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (13.55 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,430 mm (56.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
