<p><strong>Vespa</strong>&nbsp; is an Italian brand of scooter&nbsp; manufactured by Piaggio. The name means wasp in Italian. The Vespa has evolved from a single model motor scooter manufactured in 1946 by Piaggio &amp; Co. S.p.A. of Pontedera, Italy to a full line of scooters and one of seven companies today owned by Piaggio.</p>
<p>From their inception, Vespa scooters have been known for their painted, pressed steel unibody which combines a complete cowling for the engine (enclosing the engine mechanism and concealing dirt or grease), a flat floorboard (providing foot protection), and a prominent front fairing (providing wind protection) into a structural unit.</p>
<p>The biggest sales promo ever was Hollywood. In 1952, Aufrey Hepburn&nbsp; side-saddled Gregory Peck's Vespa in the feature film Roman Holiday for a ride through Rome, resulting in over 100,000 sales.</p>
<p>Vespa clubs popped up throughout Europe, and by 1952, worldwide Vespa Club membership had surpassed 50,000</p>
