Engineered by Piaggio for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2023 Piaggio Beverly 300 pairs a 278 cc (17 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 25.5 HP (18.6 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 26 Nm (19.2 lb-ft) at 6,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 91.7 HP per liter and a 1,750 rpm working window between peak torque (6,250 rpm) and peak power (8,000 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Beverly 300 measures 173.5 kg (383 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.15 HP/kg (6.8 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 1,535 mm (60.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.3 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 364 km (226 miles) between fill-ups.
