The scooter the engineers buy

Most Miami scooter shoppers walk in asking about Vespa and Honda. The ones who've already done the homework walk in asking about Kymco.

Here's why. Kwang Yang Motor Co. — KYMCO — was founded in 1963 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, as Honda's local manufacturing partner. For four decades they built Hondas under license. In 2003, they bought Honda out and went independent. Today KYMCO is a top-five global scooter manufacturer, building over 600,000 vehicles a year on a 2-million-square-foot campus, with annual revenue north of $1 billion.

And here's the proof point that ends the conversation: BMW Motorrad uses KYMCO powertrains in the C 600 Sport and C 650 GT maxi-scooters. Kawasaki rebadged the KYMCO Downtown 300i as the Kawasaki J300. Those companies don't share factories with the brand that sticks a sticker on a Chinese GY6.

Why Kymco works in Miami

  • Honda-grade engineering, half the brand cachet, two-thirds the price. The dollars you save on the badge buy you years of fuel, parts, and tires.
  • 2-year, unlimited-mile factory warranty. Double what Honda gives you on its own commuter scooters. Transferable to a second owner — protects resale.
  • Fuel injection on everything 150cc and up. No carburetor drama in Miami humidity, no cold-start coughing in February.
  • EPA-rated 102 MPG on the Agility 50. A tank of gas costs less than a single Miami Beach lunch.
  • A full ladder from $2,699 to $11,099. Same dealer, same service bay, whether you're commuting on a 50 or touring the Keys on an AK 550.

FAQ

Is Kymco a Chinese scooter brand?

No. Kymco is Taiwanese, headquartered in Kaohsiung since 1963. Engineering, R&D, and the majority of assembly are in Taiwan.

How does Kymco compare to Honda or Yamaha?

Kymco was Honda's Taiwan manufacturing partner for 40 years. The engineering DNA, QC discipline, and tooling all trace back to that era. Today Kymco supplies powertrains to BMW Motorrad and rebadged Downtown 300s to Kawasaki. Lower brand awareness in the US, not lower quality.

What's the difference between the Like 150i and the People S 150i?

The Like is a low-slung retro commuter with 13" wheels. The People S has a taller seat and 16" wheels for better stability on rough pavement. The People S wins on Miami potholes; the Like wins on aesthetics and low-speed maneuverability.

Is the AK 550 freeway-legal?

Yes. 50.9 hp, top speed well above 100 mph, full motorcycle endorsement required. It's the most premium maxi-scooter we sell — and it undercuts BMW's C 400 GT by thousands.

What's the warranty on a Kymco?

2 years, unlimited mileage, transferable. Year 1 is bumper-to-bumper; year 2 covers engine and electrical. Extended-protection plans available at purchase.

Do I need a motorcycle endorsement for the Agility 50?

No. Florida lets you ride a ≤50cc scooter on a regular Class E driver's license.

What's the resale value like?

Used Kymcos retain roughly 55–65% of MSRP at 3 years. The dollar-loss is smaller than Honda's because the entry price is lower.

Do you stock parts?

Yes — common service parts on-site, and we order from Kymco USA's national parts pipeline as needed.

Can you ship a Kymco out of state or out of the country?

Yes. We crate and ship Kymcos anywhere in the lower 48 and across the Caribbean — Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Puerto Rico, USVI, and beyond via licensed freight forwarders. Call for a destination-specific quote.
