Peugeot 103: The Moped is Back!
Between 1970s nostalgics and retro-loving youth, the Peugeot 103 aims to captivate ages 14 to 94.
In 1971, France was still breathing the air of the May ’68 uprisings. Young people sought to assert themselves, to carve their own path, and urban mobility was becoming a symbol of freedom. It was in this context that the Peugeot 103 made its debut. Lightweight, simple, and affordable, this moped was not just a means of transport; it embodied independence. For generations of young people, every trip became an adventure, every turn a thrill of freedom.
After the SPx concept presented in 2024, Peugeot Motocycles unveiled the series version of the electric 103 at EICMA 2025. This is not just nostalgic homage, but a modern reinterpretation. The spirit of the original moped remains intact—lightness, maneuverability, and enjoyment—while meeting today’s urban mobility and ecological transition demands.
The uninhibited electric transition
The electric 103 combines an aluminum monocoque frame and a single-sided rear arm for dynamic and precise handling. The front Kayaba suspension and rear shock absorber with link guarantee remarkable comfort, while the central motor and Kevlar belt transmission ensure smooth, silent, and maintenance-free acceleration.
The 103 remains true to its DNA: light, nimble, and easy to handle. Two optional packs enhance comfort and practicality. The Protect Pack shields against wind and rain, while the Comfort Pack offers a top case, smartphone holder, and premium seat.
