Engineered by Peugeot for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2023 Peugeot Speedfight 50 utilizes a 49.9 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3 HP (2.2 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 3 Nm (2.2 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 39.9 x 39.8 mm (1.6 x 1.6 inches).
On the scales, the Speedfight 50 measures 104 kg (229 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,296 mm (51 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, while factory top speed is listed at 45 km/h (28 mph).
