Aprilia Atlantic 500 Sprint

A world that is moving faster every day needs vehicles that can keep up. A world where open spaces are rapidly filling up needs vehicles that can nip through traffic, park on a sixpence, and carry maximum load in minimum dimensions. This is exactly the boast of the ATLANTIC 500 SPRINT, Aprilia’s latest scooter dedicated to riders who want more than just comfort. The Aprilia ATLANTIC 500 SPRINT has more acceleration and speed than most maxi-scooters with the compact size of a 250, a combination that really places it in a class of its own. And fun and satisfaction are guaranteed by the ATLANTIC 500 SPRINT’s unique ‘active ride’ that no other scooter of its class can equal.

The ATLANTIC 500 SPRINT opens up new horizons in personal mobility. Its agility and sparkling performance make it unbeatable around town. Roominess, comfort, and excellent wind protection, plus a high-performance 500 cc engine mean that the ATLANTIC 500 SPRINT is great on country roads, even for long distance touring. In fact, out-of-town roads are where the ATLANTIC 500 SPRINT excels, demonstrating the qualities of its chassis, showing off its motorcycle-like precision and stability, and becoming one with its rider.
