Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2007 Diamo Velux 150, a stylish and practical scooter that captures the essence of urban mobility. Priced at an accessible US$ 3,995, it caters to city dwellers, students, and anyone seeking a reliable ride that doesn’t compromise on style or performance. With its sleek lines and compact stature, the Velux 150 is perfectly positioned in the scooter segment, making it an ideal choice for those navigating the bustling streets or cruising through scenic routes. At the heart of the Velux 150 lies a robust 150cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a commendable 10 horsepower at 8,000 RPM. This powerplant, sourced from SYM, ensures that riders experience lively acceleration and a top speed of 60 mph, making it more than capable for city commuting. The automatic gearbox paired with a belt final drive offers seamless shifts, allowing riders to focus on the road ahead rather than the mechanics of their ride. With a fuel consumption rate of just 3.13 liters per 100 km (approximately 75.15 mpg), the Velux 150 also excels in efficiency, ensuring fewer stops at the pump and more time on the road. The Velux 150 is equipped with features that enhance both safety and comfort. Its braking system includes ABS-equipped single discs at both the front and rear, providing reliable stopping power in various conditions. The dual shock suspension system, both front and rear, ensures a smooth ride, absorbing bumps and imperfections in the road. With a seat height of just 29 inches, it offers a comfortable riding position for a wide range of riders, while the electric and kick-start options provide versatility in any situation. The scooter's stylish design is complemented by a fuel capacity of 7.57 liters, allowing for longer rides without frequent refueling. **
