The V Special Edition features a vintage-inspired design tailored for modern urban environments.

Safety and convenience features include ABS braking, an LED headlight, and an instrument panel that combines analog and LCD displays. The model is available in two colors: Aborgente Beige and Materia Grey, with a manufacturer's suggested retail price of 499,950 yen (including tax).
