Overview
Introducing the 2016 Ice Bear Vision 50, a stylish and practical scooter designed for urban commuting and leisurely rides. Positioned as an affordable entry-level option in the market, the Vision 50 is perfect for new riders and seasoned enthusiasts alike, offering a blend of reliability and efficiency. With an attractive price point of €2090 (approximately £1999 in the UK), this scooter is an accessible choice for those looking to navigate city streets with ease and style. Under the hood, the Vision 50 boasts a nimble 49cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that produces a respectable 3.35 horsepower at 7000 RPM. With a torque of 3.50 Nm at 6750 RPM, this scooter is designed for smooth acceleration and effortless cruising at a top speed of 45 km/h (28 mph). The automatic transmission and belt final drive make this scooter user-friendly, allowing riders to focus on the journey rather than complex gear shifting. Fuel efficiency is a standout feature, with an impressive consumption rate of just 1.60 liters per 100 kilometers (62.5 km/l or 147.01 mpg), making the Vision 50 a cost-effective choice for daily commuting. The Vision 50 doesn’t skimp on features, either. Its underbone frame, crafted from durable steel tubing, provides a solid foundation while keeping the overall weight to a manageable 100 kg (220.5 lbs). The scooter is equipped with telescopic front forks and a unit swingarm rear suspension, ensuring a comfortable ride over varied terrain. Safety is paramount, with a single disc brake in the front and an expanding drum brake in the rear, both enhanced by Combined Braking System (CBS) for improved stopping power. Riders can also enjoy the convenience of electric starting and choose from an array of vibrant color options, including white, red, gray, and black. **
