2021 Peugeot Tweet 50 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Peugeot's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2021 Peugeot Tweet 50 pairs a 49.5 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 3.4 Nm (2.5 lb-ft) at 6,500 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 37.0 x 46.0 mm (1.5 x 1.8 inches).

On the scales, the Tweet 50 measures 100 kg (220 lbs) dry. 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 1,330 mm (52.4 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 5.7-liter (1.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.6 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 219 km (136 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 45 km/h (28 mph).
