The manufacture of the VP150 was based on the Italian-made scooter, Vespa CS150. It was a very popular Soviet era (1960’s) vehicle, particularly with women. One could ride it in a skirt, it was clean, and the wide splash-guards protected the rider well from rain and mud. It cost Rbl 320.-, in comparison with the ZAZ965 – Rbl 1,800.-, Kovrovec – Rbl 125 – 456.-, or Minsk – Rbl 105-350.-.
