10. How economical are scooters10. How economical are scootersIn terms of fuel consumption, most of the two stoke 50cc scooters achieve around 90 mpg on unleaded petrol, while 4 stroke models, which are 125cc - 250cc can achieve 65 mpg. We now have the Vespa ET4 50cc which will do over 100mpg with a little restraint. Don’t forget also, the road tax is only £15 per year and probably the best part for two wheeled vehicles is that it’s still free parking. Should you happen or need to venture into a “Congestion Zone” (London) it is also free on two wheels. |
