NEW ‘COMPACT MINI-GT’ SCOOTER CATEGORY
14 January 2008 - Peugeot

Peugeot has given its popular Vivacity scooter a complete makeover

Peugeot’s designers were keen to repeat the success of the original Vivacity, having sold several hundred thousand in under 10 years, and so researched consumer needs and market trends in order to create a contemporary scooter. It was clear that riders’ expectations in respect of urban scooters focused principally around three points: (1) Storage capacity, (2) Design and (3) Value.

Equipped with this knowledge, Peugeot developed the Vivacity 3, combining many of the design features of a GT maxi-scooter with the size and price of an entry-level machine. So the Vivacity 3 boasts a stylish new look and higher specification than its predecessor but with an even lower price, (now £1,199 compared to £1,449).

Storage – the Vivacity 3 boasts the largest usable storage capacity in its category, thanks to the 13-litre capacity Jet-in® compartment, located at the front, supplementing the 22-litre under-seat compartment.

Design – it’s not just its original looks, inspired by ultra-contemporary urban design, that make the Vivacity 3 stand out. It is crammed with practical features, such as an 8.5-litre (1.9 gallon) fuel tank, providing a range of up to 250km (155 miles). The tank is situated under the floor pan to lower the centre of gravity and enhance handling and the low seat height (786mm) will also aid rider confidence. The blue backlit instrument panel includes a clock and external temperature gauge and there is even a 12V socket to charge up accessories while on the move.

Value - The Vivacity 3 will sell for £1,199 OTR, initially in a choice of Pearly Black and Red Cherry, with a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty for peace of mind.
