Engineered by Peugeot for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2012 Peugeot LXR 125 relies on a 124.6 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 13 HP (9.5 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 11.6 Nm (8.6 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 104.3 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the LXR 125 measures 142 kg (313 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.09 HP/kg (10.92 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,385 mm (54.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
