Engineered by Peugeot for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2019 Peugeot Citystar 50 RS utilizes a 49.9 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 4.6 HP (3.3 kW) at 7,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 4.6 Nm (3.4 lb-ft) at 6,700 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 39.8 x 39.8 mm (1.6 x 1.6 inches).
On the scales, the Citystar 50 RS measures 125 kg (276 lbs) dry. 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 1,410 mm (55.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.9 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 276 km (171 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 45 km/h (28 mph).
