Peugeot Challenges The ADV Scooter Segment With The XP400 At EICMA 2022
The XP400 comes in two variants: Allure and GT.

Peugeot Motocycles has been teasing its new adventure-touring scooter for quite some time now. Making good on its promises, Peugeot has officially pulled the covers off the XP400 scooter at EICMA 2022, and it's clear to see that this scooter is as adventurous as it gets. Clearly taking a few design inspirations from the Honda X-ADV, the XP400 is rugged, angular, and looks like it can go pretty much anywhere.
The Peugeot XP400 has been released in two variants, a road-focused called the Allure, and a more rugged off-road focused version called the GT. Both variants get the same bodywork and dual-purpose tires, but are differentiated by the alloy wheels on the road-focused version, and the tubeless wire-spoke wheels on the off-road version. The XP400 is powered by a 400cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, single-cylinder engine with an overhead cam. This engine is rated for 36.7 horsepower, putting it in the upper echelon of performance for its displacement class, even by maxi-scooter standards.

2021 Vespa Sei Giorni II review: Vintage style and surprising performance
Of course, being fitted with Vespa's most powerful engine ever has other benefits, as well.

You'd be forgiven for thinking that the Venn diagram for people who ride scooters and people who ride motorcycles would look like one big circle, but weirdly, that isn't the case. I don't really understand the reason for this tribalism, particularly when it comes to Vespas.
Vespas are cool, and they always have been. They offer the convenience of a scooter with sufficient power and performance to allow it to hang with a motorcycle – at least in the city. It's this duality that makes the limited-edition Vespa Sei Giorni II especially appealing.
