Kymco’s new Like 150 S scooter was recently launched in an orange livery, and the family will soon expand with a matte black version arriving in Australia by the end of October 2021.

Price for the matte black version remains the same as its sibling – $4490 plus on-road costs.

The sporty Like 150 S is based on the popular Like 150 R platform, but is styled with a more streamlined dash, slimmer headlight, new pillion grabrail, new front vent and new muffler cover.

In addition, black (piping, forks, front vent, headlight bezel, mirrors) has become the more dominant trim compared to chrome and silver.

The 150cc, four-valve, fuel-injected single-cylinder engine produces 9.9kW (13.3hp), and other Like 150 S highlights include a CVT transmission, light-weight aluminium rims, preload-adjustable rear suspension, USB charging outlet and LED lights.

The Like 150 S also has ABS on the front and rear, meeting the Australian government’s mandate that all motorcycles and scooters over 125cc must have the braking technology by November 1, 2021.

Contact your local Kymco for more information on the Like 150 S.
