Vespa Unveils Edizione Ottantesimo — 80th Anniversary Limited Model With Its Most Powerful Engine Yet

Even the fact that it was unveiled in Rome tells you they're spending real money on the branding.

Anniversary models always seem to run pricier than usual — I wonder what kind of premium this one's actually going to carry.

What's actually different about a numbered collector model versus a regular Vespa?

Being treated as a collector's item rather than just a scooter — that's very Vespa.

Keeping the steel-body tradition while packing in the most powerful engine yet — that's honoring the old while embracing the new, right there.

The brand's most powerful engine ever, timed for the 80th anniversary — exciting to see Vespa come out swinging this hard.
