With its stylish aesthetics and compact dimensions, the Crox 50 is not just another scooter; it’s a statement of freedom and fun.
At the heart of the Crox 50 lies a spirited 49.50 ccm single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, designed to deliver a blend of efficiency and responsiveness.

The SYM Crox 50 is not just about performance; it's packed with features that enhance the overall riding experience. The scooter comes equipped with both electric and kick starters, providing convenience in various situations. The front suspension is comprised of a telescopic fork, while the rear features a unit swing arm, offering a balanced ride over urban obstacles. Safety is a priority, with a single disc brake at the front (measuring 226 mm) ensuring reliable stopping power, complemented by a dependable drum brake at the rear. The Crox 50 is available in a range of bold colors—red, blue, white, and black—allowing riders to express their style as they zip through the city.
