The scooter receives three colour schemes: Metallic Matt Fibroin Gray, Pearl Mirage White, and Glass Sparkle Black. The maxi-scooter design philosophy is highlighted by the flexible foot-forward position and large dimensions with bulbous proportions.

The scooter gets a multi-function key slot with central seat lock and LED lighting for the headlights, indicators, and taillights. The maxi-scooter features chrome garnish on the front apron and a sporty muffler cover.
