Looking to cruise in style this summer, but don’t have the budget for a full blown motorcycle? A moped is an affordable way to get quickly and safely from point A to point B, while maintaining a hint of that stylish motorbike aura. These flashy bikes are guaranteed to turn a few heads on your travels — you don’t need to break the bank in order to break a few hearts! Without further ado, here are the top ten rated bikes on the market (in our humble opinion!)
#10. Verona TPGS827 ORANGE 49cc Gas 4 Stroke Moped Scooter
This relatively simple bike is a striking orange hue and comes equipped with a rear luggage rack and 49cc of street-legal power. This fully automatic machine isn’t in-your-face by any means, but it will certainly get the job done for any commuters or casual hobbyists. Buy now from Amazon
#9. TaoTao CY50B BLUE 49cc Gas Automatic Scooter Moped
This TaoTao bike is another fully automatic 49cc mini-monster with shiny 10 inch rims and a dynamite blue and white color combination. At a lower price than the last bike, it will reach a higher top speed (40 to 45 MPH) and conserve much more gas (up to 110 miles per gallon). Get your hands on this speed demon and you won’t be sorry. Buy now from Amazon
#8. 50cc Gas Street Legal Scooter TaoTao ATM50A1
This gas-powered bike is extremely similar to the previous TaoTao entry on this list, but features a sleek black and blue exterior that projects a slightly more ‘dangerous’ aura. The stats on MPH and MPG are very similar to the CY50-B, but we gave the ATM50-A1 a slight edge because of its cheaper price. Buy now from Amazon
#7. Razor Pocket Mod Miniature Euro Electric Scooter
This next entry on the list is a bit of a different animal, and was heavily inspired by our friends across the Atlantic in Europe. Although it is a much smaller-scale bike, only running up to about 15 miles per hour and featuring a battery that runs up to 10 miles on a single charge, the Razor Pocket Mod’s vintage throwback design and soft purple exterior scream high-fashion retro. Its 12-inch tires and rear suspension system will ensure that you get where you want to go on time and in style. Buy now from Amazon
#6. TaoTao Thunder 50 Gas Street Legal Scooter
Another entry from respected moped manufacturer TaoTao, this scooter is a classic look and a time-honored model that helps it rank a little higher than TaoTao’s other bikes. With the same 49cc, 110 MPG specifications, consumers can’t go wrong with this stylish black bike. Buy now from Amazon
#5. Scooter 150cc Street Legal Power Maz Scooter
This Power Maz scooter is our first truly beefy entry on this list. Maintaining street legality at a rugged 150cc, this fully automatic scooter is sure to impress with its powerful 4-stroke, single cylinder engine. Its twin hydraulic rear suspension will help mitigate the eye-popping top speeds of 55 miles per hour and prevent bumps in the road from being your undoing! Buy now from Amazon
#4. TaoTao LANCER150 Gas Street Legal Scooter
The Lancer gives you just as much speed capacity as the Power Maz, but in a nicer package. Its high-powered GY6 engine and CVT transmission deliver up to 150cc of engine power, and the full body will easily accomodate two adults. Check out its smooth automatic gear shift and daring fire truck red paint job — you certainly won’t be disappointed! Buy now from Amazon
#3. Renegade TPGS805 GREEN Gas 49cc Moped Scooter
Renegade’s first entry onto the list is a real winner and a sharp looking moped that delivers surprising power for its size and 50cc capacity. Easily exceeding speeds of 35 mph, the lightweight TPGS-805 comes in a dashing forest green and surpasses its price point competition with reliable hydraulic front and rear suspension and can’t-miss 10 inch steel rims. Buy now from Amazon
#2. Jetson Electric EBike with Hidden Battery
This Jetson product is a bit different than the rest of the bikes on this list, but we couldn’t resist throwing a curveball at number two. With the flair of a Vespa and the environmental impact of a Prius, this affordable E-Bike can reach 20 mph and runs on a battery that lasts up to 40 miles per charge on a regular 110V electrical outlet. The bike’s advanced lithium ion technology translates into zero emissions, and no oil or gas changes will simplify your life beyond your wildest fantasies. Different, but definitely worth a look! Buy now from Amazon
#1. PCC Valentine 50cc 4Stroke Gas Motor Scooter Sky Blue 25+MPH Vespa Replica
#1 in looks, #1 in our hearts, #1 on our list. The Puma Valentine adopts the classic Vespa look and sells for a fraction of the price. Perfect for short commutes and gallivanting around town, the Valentine features a four-stroke motor that will reach speeds of up to 25 mph as well as a large, comfortable floorboard and disc brakes on each wheel for safe and rapid stops. If this bike’s high, rounded mirrors don’t get your heart all a-flutter, you probably shouldn’t be buying a moped anyway! Buy now from Amazon
