Positioned in Peugeot's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2008 Peugeot Elystar 50 relies on a 49.1 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant.
On the scales, the Elystar 50 measures 95 kg (209 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 825 mm (32.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams. The 9-liter (2.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
