A moped is defined as a vehicle with two or more wheels having a maximum speed not exceeding 45 km/h. If equipped with an internal combustion engine, what must be its displacement?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is not exceeding 50 cubic centimeters. According to the General Vehicle Regulations, for a vehicle to be classified as a moped (and not a motorcycle), it must simultaneously meet two main requirements: Its maximum construction speed cannot exceed 45 km/h. Its engine, if internal combustion, must have a displacement not exceeding 50 cc (or a maximum power of 4 kW if electric). Key facts for the exam: Mopeds are not legally considered 'motor vehicles' (even though they have an engine), but have special treatment under traffic regulations. They are visually identified by having a yellow license plate. If the vehicle were to exceed 50 cc or 45 km/h, it would legally be considered a motorcycle, requiring an A1 license or higher and a white license plate.
