2006 Vespa Granturismo 200 L Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Vespa for the scooter motorcycle segment, the 2006 Vespa Granturismo 200 L utilizes a 198 cc (12.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 19.7 HP (14.4 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 9.6 Nm (7.1 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and belt final drive. With a specific output of 99.5 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the Granturismo 200 L measures 116 kg (256 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.17 HP/kg (5.89 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 1,395 mm (54.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10-liter (2.6 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 250 km (155 miles) between fill-ups, while factory top speed is listed at 119 km/h (74 mph).

Within MotoLibrary's Vespa archive, this model family spans 2 indexed model years from 2005 to 2006, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
