Vespa is gearing up for its 80th anniversary, and it’s marking the occasion the only way Vespa knows how. The brand is dipping back into its own history and pulling out a pair of special edition models called the Vespa 80th. Both the Primavera and GTS get the treatment, and the whole idea is to blend the original 1946 look with the tech and comfort of the modern lineup.
The big spotlight here is the color.
Vespa calls it Verde Pastello, and it’s a soft, spring green that comes straight from the earliest Vespa archives. It’s the same shade that showed up on the first single color models right after the war. Back then, Europe was rebuilding from scratch, and the scooter became a symbol of optimism and creativity. Vespa is tapping right back into that energy with this anniversary series.
