00:00Welcome to the video from the Auto Magazine Tuning Blog on the topic of the Wesper Conversion Kit.
00:10As always, you can find the link to read the article in our magazine in the video description.
00:17Even though the Wesper is now available as an electric version,
00:20the new conversion system from Moto Velo Z could be of interest to many owners of classic models.
00:25With the Retro Kit, the startup from Rimini has developed a system that can be used to
00:33transform a petrol-powered Vespa into a modern electric scooter within about four hours,
00:37without the need for a specialist workshop.
00:43The system is primarily aimed at older Vespa models and is intended to preserve the classic look.
00:50According to the manufacturer, it can be used to electrify a Wesper from the 1979
00:55for example, without having to modify the frame or bodywork.
01:00The original petrol engine is replaced by a 7 kW electric motor.
01:06The energy is supplied by a lithium battery with a capacity of 2.35 kW,
01:11which is installed under the seat in place of the fuel tank.
01:16According to a report by Gollum, both the rear wheel design and the brakes will remain the same,
01:21meaning no changes to the chassis are necessary.
01:25The conversion kit is available in two versions for models with 50 and 125 cc.
01:33The top speed remains unchanged at 45 km per hour for the 50 cc version and 80 km per hour for the 125 cc version.
01:41There are three riding modes, eco, drive and sport.
01:49In eco mode, a range of around 80 km is possible on one battery charge,
01:54with a full charge taking around four hours.
01:56The original Wesper instruments can be replaced with digital displays.
02:04Optional features such as LED lighting are also available.
02:07Drivers can monitor the performance of their converted Wesper via a smartphone app and retrieve data such as speed,
02:15battery status, range and the current riding mode.
02:18The conversion kit is available in Germany via VintageRoller.de and costs from 3,099 euros, depending on the version.
02:27The German startup Evo Retrofit had already announced a similar system in 2021.
02:34However, it is unclear whether it ever went into series production.
02:39Vespa manufacturer Piaggio introduced its own electric version in 2018 with the Vespa Electrics,
02:45which cost around 4,000 euros in basic configuration at the time.
02:48However, the Moto Velozze Retro Kit is not intended to compete with the modern electric Vespa,
02:56but rather to enable older models to have a sustainable future.
