Innocenti SA, the owner of the iconic Italian scooter brand Lambretta, introduces its new flagship model at EICMA 2019 in Milan. Furthermore, it reveals the introduction of a high-power electric Lambretta planned for Delhi Auto Expo in 2020.

For the future, Innocenti is defining a clear strategy focusing on the further development of its electric scooters and motorcycles range. It will also invest in Hydrogen2 technology.
Lambretta strives to become the world number 1 within the Italian classic scooter brand segment before 2028. With 610 dealers in 37 countries, Lambretta has consolidated the world-wide recognition and appreciation of its 1947 Milan born lifestyle brand.
