New Lambrettas in the pipeline
The Italian scooter marque recently unveiled two new models, and they’re heading our wayLambretta Australia has announced that two new scooter models are set to join the Australian line-up, with the Lambretta G350 and Lambretta X300 slated for arrival in the first quarter of 2023.
Both models were revealed recently as part of Italy’s Milan Design Week, the Lambretta G350 signing on as the brand’s new flagship, and the Lambretta X300 serving as the start of a new product line.
When they appear in local dealerships, the two newcomers will bring the Australian Lambretta range up to four models, the new arrivals sitting alongside the V-Special 50 and V-Special 200.

Lambretta G350
The Lambretta G350 can trace its genesis back to the G325 Special that first appeared at the 2019 EICMA motorcycle expo in Italy – it was due to enter production in 2020, before the COVID-19 pandemic intervened…
Lambretta Australia says the production model is effectively a “high-end extension of the V-Special range”, with features spanning a double-linkage front suspension and rear shock absorber, dual-channel ABS, and a TFT display.
The scooter is powered by a 330cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine said to produce 25.8hp (19.2kW) and 25.5Nm, while the model rides on 12-inch wheels and features a steel monocoque frame with interchangeable side panels.
Lambretta X300
The Lambretta X300, meanwhile, features a sporty look combined with the brand’s signature fixed front mudguard. With a semi-monocoque frame with steel shield, footboard and side panels, it too has a double-linkage front suspension and rear shock absorber plus dual-channel ABS, along with LED lighting and keyless starting.
The X300 is powered by a 275cc single-cylinder engine with a fraction less output than the G350, the unit punching out 24.8hp (18.2kW) and 24.5Nm.
The bikes will be entering production in late 2022, in what is Lambretta’s 75th anniversary year, with pricing, colours and a specific arrival date to be announced closer to their arrival Down Under. For more information visit www.lambrettaaustralia.com.au.
