Engineered by Sym for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2014 Sym GTS Joymax 250i evo features a 250.6 cc (15.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 23.1 HP (16.8 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22.7 Nm (16.7 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 92.2 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (5,500 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 GTS Joymax 250i evo measures 167 kg (368 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (7.23 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,495 mm (58.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.44 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 492 km (306 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 128 km/h (80 mph).
