Positioned in Peugeot's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2023 Peugeot Django 125 features a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 11.3 HP (8.2 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 11.2 Nm (8.3 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 90.4 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,000 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 Django 125 measures 137 kg (302 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.08 HP/kg (12.12 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 770 mm (30.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,350 mm (53.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 8.5-liter (2.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.9 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 293 km (182 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 95 km/h (59 mph).
