The Honda Super Cub is more than a small city scooter: it is the best-selling two-wheeler of all time and a product case still studied today. Its strength lies in a very simple formula: low running costs, ease of use, excellent fuel economy and near-legendary reliability.
According to the analysis mentioned by RideApart, the real genius was making it accessible to almost anyone, not just enthusiasts. In Italy, where light mobility is becoming more important because of traffic and fuel prices, the Super Cub remains a perfect example of a vehicle designed well before being powerful.
