Aprilia Sonic 50 & Sonic 50 GP

04 January 2008
News image The Sonic is a brand new scooter from the Aprilia stable that is not only small, light and cheap to buy, but offers high levels of comfort, space and safety combined with an excellent standard of finish.

The air-cooled Sonic 50 is the ideal choice for commuters who demand comfort above all else, but do not want to sacrifice style, economy and performance.

Thanks to its light weight and sporty engine, the Sonic has all the acceleration and power you need to tackle tricky riding conditions with confidence. Its small size makes the Sonic nippy in traffic and a piece of cake to park.

Yet the compact Sonic is amazingly comfortable, even for tall riders, and boasts a generous amount of space, including a practical forward storage compartment for personal effects and an under-seat compartment that is large enough to hold a full-face helmet.

If that’s not enough for you, the Sonic 50 GP version takes the acceleration, responsiveness and agility of the Sonic and adds a liberal dose of aggressive sports performance. The liquid-cooled engine lets you leave other 50cc scoots standing at the lights.

Both models are fitted with Aprilia’s latest catalytic converter to make the environmentally friendly Sonic run quiet and clean.

A quick glance will let you know who’s got a air-cooled Sonic and who is riding the liquid-cooled GP even before you see them sprint away because the Sonic GP gets a front radiator grille and a rear spoiler.
