2012 Kymco People 50

KYMCO has re-introduced the People 50 at a price several hundred dollars below its previous MSRP. At only $1,999, the People 50 has classic retro appeal at a super-affordable price. Whether you’re commuting to work or just wheeling around town, the People offers plenty of comfort with a large padded seat. A built-in rear luggage rack provides a place for gear and an optional buddy seat for two-up riding.

Classic retro appeal at a super-affordable price. Like all KYMCO scooters, its CVT automatic transmission makes it easy to ride and it gets an incredible 90 miles per gallon. The People 50 uses a peppy oil injected two-stroke engine that has all the power you need to get you where you want to go for just pennies a mile.
