Hand-crafted in Italy, the scooter features a striking dragon livery in emerald green, symbolising energy and strength. It boasts a 150cc engine, a metal-monocoque body, and a single leading-link shock at the front, complemented by stylish 12-inch wheels and a 220mm disc brake.
To commemorate its launch in India, the Vespa 946 Dragon comes with an exclusive Varsity Jacket. This fashion piece, Vespa’s first in India, mirrors the scooter’s design with a dragon motif in emerald green, ribbed wool, and Nappa leather sleeves. The jacket showcases intricate prints and embroideries, underscoring the scooter’s style and legacy.
