At the heart of the 2020 Sym Cruisym 250i scooter motorcycle, Sym relies on a 249.4 cc (15.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 21.2 HP (15.5 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 23.5 Nm (17.3 lb-ft) at 5,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 85 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 rpm) and peak power (7,500 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 Cruisym 250i measures 196 kg (432 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.11 HP/kg (9.25 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 760 mm (29.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,550 mm (61 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.13 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 563 km (350 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 124 km/h (77 mph).
