skútry

Skútry, also known as scooters, are a type of motorcycle characterized by a step-through frame and a platform for the rider's feet. They typically have smaller wheels than motorcycles and an automatic transmission, making them easy to operate. The engine is usually located under the seat or at the rear of the vehicle.

The term "skútr" originated in Italy with the introduction of the Vespa and Lambretta in the mid-20th century. These vehicles quickly gained popularity for their practicality, affordability, and ease of use, especially in urban environments. Over time, skútry evolved to include a wide range of engine sizes and styles, from small, lightweight models for commuting to larger, more powerful ones capable of highway travel.

Modern skútry often feature advanced technologies such as fuel injection, anti-lock braking systems (ABS), and LED lighting. They remain a popular mode of transportation worldwide, valued for their fuel efficiency, maneuverability in traffic, and relatively low cost of ownership. Skútry are used for a variety of purposes, including commuting, running errands, and recreational riding. They are particularly prevalent in densely populated cities where parking can be a challenge and navigating congested streets is a daily reality.
