History
Presented at the EICMA in November 2013, the Streetzone is a small low-wheeled scooter intended above all for young people. It was created to replace the previous Trekker and is produced in China in the Jinan plant, headquarters of the joint venture Jinan Qingqi-Peugeot Motorcycles.
It features a sporty bodywork design, flat platform and "naked" handlebar without a plastic protective shell. It presents an engine range consisting of a 50 two-stroke engine and a 100 four-stroke engine version with 10" tires combined with knobby tires or 12" with roads.
The telescopic fork is visible and on models with 12” wheels it is painted, the side platforms are in aluminium, furthermore all models have a bumper kit to protect the bodywork and lights.
The muffler is of the reverse racing type, the braking system is made up of a 190 mm Shuricane front disc and a 110 mm rear and drum. The engine of the fifty is an air-cooled 49.9 cc two-stroke that delivers 3 kW (4.1 HP) and is approved Euro 2. The 100 engine is a 102 cc four-stroke that delivers 5 kW (6.8 HP) and is Euro 3 approved.
At EICMA 2016, the MY2017 range is presented, reduced to just the Euro 3 approved 50 engine, while the 100 version goes out of production due to low sales.
At the end of 2018, the two-stroke fifty was homologated Euro 4.
In 2021, the new four-stroke engine 50 homologated Euro 5 makes its debut, sending the old two-stroke into retirement. The new 50 is air-cooled, delivers 2.6 kW (3.5 HP) at 7700 rpm and maximum torque of 3.2 Nm at 7300 rpm. It is offered only with 10” knobby tyres.
