Vespa Officina 8 Special Editions: A Bold Tribute to Its Experimental Legacy and Iconic Innovation.
Vespa has once again reignited the spirit of innovation with the launch of the Officina 8 Special Editions, paying homage to its legendary Experimental Department that birthed the first Vespas and shaped the brand’s history of daring design and technological breakthroughs.
Tucked away within the Piaggio plant in Pontedera, Officina 8 was more than just a department—it was a creative sanctuary. From the 1940s onward, this workshop brought together designers, aeronautical engineers, metalworkers, and test riders who crafted masterpieces like the iconic “98 Corsa” and the record-breaking Vespa models of the 1950s. Each project carried the mark of innovation, precision, and bold experimentation.

What makes them stand out? The Signature Blu Officina 8 color is a deep, industrial blue with a matte metallic finish, reminiscent of classic workshop machines. Satin-finish accents add a subtle touch, with brushed aluminum details on the leg shield, headlamp, and taillight. Polished brass highlights on the horn grille and wheels are diamond-cut for extra style.
The saddle features a sleek, two-tone look, with heat-sealed horizontal stitching, contrasting piping, and decorative brass rivets. Sporty details include matte black trim and bar-end mirrors, giving a sharp, purposeful appearance.
