This is how Vespa celebrates the arrival of the Chinese New Year, with the Vespa 946 Dragon... and a jacket

The arrival of the Chinese New Year is celebrated in many ways. And the Vespa brand, a classic in the world of scooters, has decided to do so with the launch of a special edition dedicated to the Year of the Dragon. This mythological animal holds great importance in Chinese culture, so the brand has wanted to offer a model that pays homage to everything the Dragon represents.

The Vespa 946 Dragon is painted in a slightly golden tone, which represents the abundance and good luck that the dragon brings. Alongside this bodywork paint, we find an elegant emerald green dragon that creates an interesting contrast with it.

This version of the model is designed to be sold worldwide, although only 1,888 units will be manufactured. Fortunately, Spain is included in the brand’s plans, and anyone who wants to enjoy a unit of this variant will be able to do so without problems, as long as they hurry to reserve it.

As for the mechanics of the Vespa 946 Dragon, it features a four-valve engine, 150 cubic centimetres, air-cooled with fuel injection. With this powertrain, it achieves a power output of 11 CV. In terms of equipment, it offers LED lights, dual-channel ABS and a digital instrument cluster.

In addition to offering a fairly attractive version of this scooter, Vespa has wanted to raise the stakes, and along with the vehicle an exclusive jacket is offered, with the same design as the scooter, included in the price. This, by the way, has already been unveiled.

If you want to enjoy one of the 1,888 units of the Vespa 946 Dragon, you can reserve it in Spain for 12,000 euros. It is not known how many units have been allocated to Spain, but we assume there won’t be many.
