Vespa 946 horse edition scooter revealed

Over the years, Vespa has produced many special edition models based on its 946 scooter, some in conjunction with the Chinese Zodiac signs for each calendar year. 2026 being the year of the horse, the Italian scooter maker has revealed a special Vespa 946 Horse.

  1. Vespa 946 Horse is has gloss and matte brown bodywork
  2. Some aesthetic accessories also available
  3. Limited edition scooter likely to be built in small numbers, exact units not specified

Previously, Vespa’s Lunar Collection has included special edition models paying tribute to symbols of years gone by - Dragon and Snake, namely. Since 2026 is the year of the horse, what Vespa has done is revealed a special edition that it claims embodies some traits of that animal - regal, dynamic and a symbol of resilience - to quote the company.

The Vespa 946 Horse edition is distinguished by its bay color, a deep brown shade that the company says ‘recalls the glossy, dark coat of the horse.’ The steel bodywork - a Vespa trademark - has contrasting glossy and matte finishes and multiple special details. The handcrafted seat is made out of leather and is inspired by equestrian tack - fancy speak for the saddle seen on horses and has a V monogram stamped at the center of a horseshoe beneath it. Even the handlebar and rear-view mirrors have premium leather trims just to reinforce the entire horse theme.

There are a couple of accessories available too, a small rear bag made out of the same leather as the scooter’s seat, a small lightly smoked windshield for those who prefer that look and lastly, a colour-matched three-quarter helmet with a 3D gold V logo. Now, Vespa says this 946 Horse edition scooter is going to be a limited edition model but its literature doesn’t specify exactly how many units are going to be built. For instance, only 1,888 units of the Vespa 946 Dragon edition were built. Bookings are open on Vespa’s official website and if you’re interested in getting your hands on one, we’d recommend speaking to your nearest authorised dealer.

Tata Motors had a blockbuster showing at Auto Expo 2023, with several models on display in various states of production readiness. However, while Tata’s announcement was quite scant on details, we’ve received a bit more information from company sources, specifically around when these cars will be launched. The products are an even mix of EV and ICE products, but while the latter includes petrol and CNG models, there has been no word on further diesel development, which means the present 1.5-litre engine in the Nexon , and the Fiat-sourced 2.0 in the Harrier and Safari , will soldier on for some time.

Looking for advice on which new bike to purchase. Few things to note - Budget is INR 3-4 Lakhs. It will not be my primary mode of transport as I mostly use my car. The bike will be used 60-70 percent for Sunday morning rides, 10-20 percent touring and 10-20 percent maybe the odd office commute or coffee run. Prefer comfortable upright ergonomics. Do let me know if you need any further info from my end. Thanks in advance for your help! Rahul Khurana, New Delhi Autocar India says: You haven’t mentioned whether the bike you are looking for is meant to be sporty and exciting or calm and relaxed in nature, so we’ll share a few options at both ends of that spectrum. Since this is going to be a casual use motorcycle we’ll keep things like fuel efficiency as a low priority but all options mentioned here will have upright ergonomics. At the sporty end, there’s no beating the new Gen 3 KTM 390 Duke which offers the strongest performance available at this price as well as outstanding handl...
