The full 2019 Vespa Elettrica spec sheet below covers every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes.

2019 Elettrica - Pros & Cons

Strengths

Factory engineering: Vespa built the Elettrica around a straightforward, purposeful specification rather than chasing any single standout feature.

Considerations

Age-related wear: Nothing specific stands out as a weak point on the Elettrica - the usual used-bike checks (service history, consumables, tyres) apply.

Wear Points & Servicing Notes

Brake disc and pad wear

Braking up front comes from Single disc - solid stopping power, with disc and pad wear best checked on the same schedule as tyre changes.

Suspension condition on used examples

The Elettrica's suspension runs Single arm at the front. The rear uses Hydraulic monoshock absorber. Fork-seal condition and rear linkage play are the two things worth checking before buying used.

Frame & chassis check

Built around a Sheet steel body/ welded reinforcements, the Elettrica's chassis is straightforward to inspect: look for corrosion, cracks or repair welds around stress points like the head-stock and swingarm mounts.

Low-speed handling

102.1 kg keeps the Elettrica easy to move around in tight spaces, car parks and on the stand alike.

Elettrica - Buying & Maintenance Guide

What to check before buying

Before handing over money for a used 2019 Vespa Elettrica, cover the fundamentals: service book and oil change history, chain and sprocket wear, and any sign of oil weeping around the casings. Cold-starting it yourself tells you a lot - a healthy Elettrica should catch quickly and settle into a smooth idle.

Oil and filter changes

Nothing protects a Elettrica's engine like disciplined oil changes - stay on the manufacturer's schedule (roughly every 6,000 km or annually). Match the viscosity grade to what the owner's manual specifies, not what's cheapest.
