2009 Aprilia Scarabeo 50 2T
Ever since it was introduced back in 1993 Scarabeo
has led the field in technology and style, becoming
the trend setter for the scooter market. All the large
wheel scooters launched after Scarabeo have copied
it to a greater or lesser extent, but Scarabeo’s
unique lines still represent the most successful mix
of classic and modern styling you can find.
Scarabeo’s simple, friendly looks are always
the height of fashion, and its easy-going character
and reliable, modern engines always never let you
down. The recipe behind Scarabeo’s incredible
success is so simple that it is impossible to copy.
That is why riders who have come to appreciate Scarabeo
over the years would never dream of riding another
scooter. Scarabeo believes in evolution, not revolution.
Its harmonious shape, defined by simple, rounded
lines and reassuringly smooth surfaces, is totally
unmistakable. Scarabeo’s superior finish and
refined details stand out at first glance and first
touch. Scarabeo is simply Scarabeo, unique and unmistakable.
Distinctive elegance, impressive comfort, plus advanced
performance and safety give Scarabeo across-the-board
appeal. Scarabeo is loved by teenagers, lady riders,
students and managers – in fact everybody who
wants a scooter of distinction and class. Scarabeo
does not follow fashion – it leads it. Like
all true classics, Scarabeo is an object of cult design,
and evolves without losing its identity.
Scarabeo has become an undisputed symbol of two-wheeled
elegance. One quick glance is all you need to recognise
Scarabeo among a thousand others. And one quick trip
is all you need to appreciate its superb riding qualities.
Over the years Scarabeo has developed a chameleon-like
ability to change its skin, and to evolve along with
the changing needs of the market. The emphasis today
is on practical mobility: riders want scooters that
are small outside but big inside, and able to overcome
any challenge.
Scarabeo satisfies all the needs of modern mobility
thanks to a complete range of engine sizes, from the
city-loving 50/100 to the 250, 400 and flagship 500cc
models. And there is Scarabeo 125/200 too, dedicated
mainly to riders who want to combine agility, performance
and comfort.
