In a bid to grow its exports, Piaggio Vehicles has launched its Vespa and Aprilia SR 150 scooters in Sri Lanka. In FY2017, the company had shipped a total of 5,305 two-wheelers, up 512 percent year-on-year growth albeit on a low base.
Commenting on the launch, Diego Graffi, managing director and CEO, Piaggio Vehicles said, “Both Aprilia and Vespa have created a benchmark in the two-wheeler segment in India and now the bikes are set to make their debut in Sri Lanka. We hope to further enhance our positioning in the Indian sub-continent with this launch.”
