Engineered by Peugeot for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2008 Peugeot Vivacity 50 Sportline utilizes a 49.9 cc (3 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 5.6 HP (4.1 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox.
On the scales, the Vivacity 50 Sportline measures 81 kg (179 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.07 HP/kg (14.46 kg per horsepower). 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. The 8-liter (2.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
