The beauty and simplicity of the Vespa has long been it’s staying power, and with a sleek, retro redesign by Giulio Iacchetti, it looks like the Vespa’s future will be even cleaner and brighter. The thoughtful yet minimal design brings a snoopy, cantilevered seat to the bike, with a sleek LED headlight, and mini stalk mirrors. All functions of the electric bike are to be controlled via a wireless app that works with your smartphone, which snaps securely into place where a traditional speedometer would be. Harkening back to the form of the original 1946 98 cc, this sleek beauty is entitled the Vespampère. Via DesignBoom:
