Italian outlet moto.it reports that Moto Guzzi is preparing a new modern classic. The model name could be 'The Trip 500.' Rather than the brand's iconic transverse V-twin, it's expected to be powered by a compact parallel-twin derived from Aprilia, and is anticipated to debut in 2027 as an entry-level model for the brand.

Moto Guzzi is a brand you can talk about through its presence before you even get to specs. Going the modern-classic route feels like the work of translating that atmosphere into today's sensibility. Even if the engine changes, as long as the maker's aesthetic remains in the design, it'll still properly feel "Guzzi." I love the mood of the name The Trip too.

Is 'The Trip' just a working name? Guess the official model name isn't locked in yet.

If it's positioned as an entry-level model, I'd guess the price is going to be kept pretty low too.

For an entry-level model, sharing the engine to keep costs down makes perfect sense.

An Aprilia-derived engine means they're pushing platform sharing within the group even further.

Moto Guzzi's V-twin has been the brand's symbol for so long, this one's bound to split opinion among fans.

Dropping the transverse V for a parallel twin is a huge call for Moto Guzzi's identity.
