The change in engine capacity from 65 to 49 cm³ is no small matter. It directly reflects the regulatory changes in Spain in the early 1960s, which set the limit for licence-exempt mopeds at 50 cm³. Gimson adapted pragmatically, as did the entire Spanish light two-wheeler industry, by offering a range redesigned around this new standard. The Turismo Lujo version is the top-of-the-range variant of this adaptation, one that refuses to sacrifice care and quality on the altar of regulatory constraints.
The name Lujo is no mere marketing ploy. It denotes a machine that truly stands out within the Gimson range, featuring superior finishes, enhanced equipment and a refined presentation that reflects the Valencian manufacturer’s commitment to catering to a discerning clientele. In Spain, amidst the nascent economic miracle, a growing segment of the population could now aspire to more than the bare minimum, and Gimson understood this.
Its 49cc two-stroke engine is a robust and well-built piece of machinery, a direct heir to the Gimson tradition of simplicity, reliability and economy, yet assembled with particular care in this Lujo version, which justifies the price difference through a perceptible difference in quality.
1962 was a fine year for Gimson; the brand was in its prime, its machines were renowned throughout the Spanish Levante, and the Turismo Lujo embodied the best of what it could produce. A model from this era in its original condition is today a precious find for the collector with an eye for Spanish regional productions that have been overlooked for too long.
