Hey, is there a good reference that shows the differences between the different trim levels and the Primavera vs Sprint? I am lookin at a 2024/2025.

Red orange or blue! It appears most trims are cosmetic but tech has the LCD dash?

I found their website to be lacking in details, at least nothing displayed in an easily findable way.

For the OP, the mechanicals are the same, with a few exceptions...
50cc doesn't have ABS
150cc has 1-channel (front only) ABS

50cc has key seat release (side of seat)
150cc has remote seat release

Tech sub-models have the nicer display and might have USB charger and bluetooth module (unclear if they all come together and the USB and BT can be added to any model post-sale).

S submodels have black trim, the rest usually have chrome.

Other than that, it's basically all aesthetics - paint options, decals (on some special editions), wheel and tire colors (silver vs white vs black).

No problem, just went through this exercise myself... We wound up buying a new but unsold 2023 Sprint 150. Most of our driving is within 3 miles of home, suburban roads, in the US. The 150 feels just right (after 3 days of ownership) for those quick errands, even 2-up. And I'm glad we skipped the 50cc - it would have worked ok, but limited which roads we could comfortably used, especially 2-up.

Since early this year the Tech variants now have 2 channel abs. (At least here in aus). 2-channel is required in Aus - they were force to stop selling the 1-channel a couple of years ago and have only been able to start selling again now that there's 2-channel ver.

this 2-channel is def avail across asia/pacfic - no idea for the rest of the world.

I haven't ridden a Vespa 300, just 50s and 150s. FWIW, the 150 is plenty for my use, which is running errands within a few miles of home (25-40mph suburban roads), plus the occasional Cars & Coffee run and similar social events. No highway, no roadtrips. We've ridden it two-up a few times and it's still more than adequate.

But, if regular highway use was a requirement, I'd definitely look for a GTS 300 or similar.

Nice, that's what I got as well! Mine was de-Biebered (no decals). I paid a bit more, but it had a matching top-case included. No extra fees were added, just tax/tags. Still way less than MSRP on a 2025.
