Question 5309

A motorcycle is defined as a motor vehicle...

  1. with a displacement greater than 125 cubic centimeters.
  2. with two wheels and an engine with a displacement greater than 50 cubic centimeters, and/or with a maximum speed greater than 45 km/h.
  3. with two or three wheels and a displacement under 50 cubic centimeters.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: with two wheels and an engine with a displacement greater than 50 cubic centimeters, and/or with a maximum speed greater than 45 km/h.

A motorcycle is a motor vehicle (automóvil) with two wheels, or three if it has a sidecar, that exceeds at least one of these limits: 50 cm³ with a combustion engine or a maximum design speed of 45 km/h. It does not need to exceed 125 cm³. If it exceeds neither limit, it is a moped.
