Up until recently, if you wanted a retro-inspired scooter, you’d have had to get yourself either a Vespa, Lambretta, or an actual vintage scooter that’s at least a couple decades old. Recent years, however, have ushered in a wave of neo-retro scooters, because who doesn’t want to look chic and stylish while puttering around town in a thoroughly practical machine?
Kymco, a brand that’s been synonymous with scooters since the dawn of its existence in 1963, had quite a lot to show off at EICMA 2023. Sitting at the affordable end of the spectrum is the new Filly 50. The Filly 50 is by no means a new name in the Kymco lineup. In fact, it has more than two decades of legacy behind its name. That being said, little has changed when it comes to this little two-wheeler’s ethos, centering on practicality and affordability, but not forgetting about style.
