25 years of Israeli choice: How SYM became the nation’s scooter

Israel is a country in constant motion. Imagine a scorching morning on the Ayalon, a protest on Route 4 that has become routine, parking spots that appear and vanish in a second, a crowded city connecting within minutes to an intercity highway.

Now stop imagining, because this is reality. Within it, a good scooter is not just a convenience — it is a life infrastructure: Arriving on time, getting more done, and feeling in control. Choosing the right vehicle provides peace of mind over time, which is why for 25 consecutive years, SYM has led the sales charts. It is perfectly tuned to the local pace — quick in city starts, stable and refined on intercity rides, economical in time and money, and reliable over the years.

Anyone who rides here knows how much the vehicle affects the day. In the city, SYM feels at home weaving between lanes and finding parking spots that others give up on. On intercity roads, it provides calm, a sense of security, and stability thanks to a natural seating position and balanced wind protection.

This translates into shorter travel times, less stress, and more control over schedules. For students navigating between campus and work, couriers managing busy shifts, parents juggling errands and pickups, and veteran riders spending hours on the road — it’s the difference between a day that flows and a day that gets complicated.

Not all riders are the same, which is why the selection is broad and based on real use: From accessible and comfortable 125cc models that maneuver easily in crowded cities, to balanced mid-size models designed for a mix of urban and intercity routines, to large, luxurious, high-quality scooters for those seeking comfort, performance, and advanced technology.

At the top of the large scooter range are the flagship models — the ADX4000, an adventure scooter with groundbreaking technology for road and off-road use; the 508 TL maxi-scooter that covers distances easily and considers no destination too far; and the MAXSYM 400 GT version for maximum comfort.

Alongside performance, the design language remains simple and logical: Real space for a helmet and gear, suspensions that handle local asphalt irregularities, and brakes that feel safe and intuitive from the first moment. This way, every rider, of any age and stage, finds the model that fits their needs — without getting caught in unnecessary price spirals.

SYM scooters come with advanced technological systems and a rich specification for everyday riding enjoyment. Standard safety systems upgrade the riding experience and protect the rider — innovative LED lighting improves visibility day and night, while user-friendly interfaces reduce cognitive load. The design is sporty and elegant with clean lines, modern presence, and smart functionality. Riders who want to fine-tune their experience can choose models adapted to their riding style, from hand protection to adjustable windshields.

Value for money is not measured only by purchase price but by the real cost of owning the scooter over time — and when it is convenient and predictable, you feel it every month.

A fair purchase price is combined with fuel efficiency and planned maintenance, making it easy to control expenses and plan ahead. Added to the financial consideration is an important fact: SYM scooters are also sought after in the used market, which makes selling and upgrading to the next model easier and preserves value.

On the service side stands Metro Freesbe, with over 50 service centers and showrooms nationwide, high parts availability, and professionals who know every scooter in depth and can match the right model to each rider’s needs. With this support, hassle is minimized, and riding remains the focus.

Before purchasing, it’s worth asking five short questions: What are the daily travel distances, and are they only urban or mixed? How comfortable are the seat, suspension, and wind protection for your body and route? What are the total expenses — purchase price, insurance, fuel, and maintenance? Where is the nearest service point, and how available is it? And at the first encounter, do you feel control, stability, and intuitive handling?

The answers will naturally lead to the right SYM model — whether it’s your first choice or an upgrade to a more spacious and high-performance scooter.

When the Israeli public consistently chooses the same brand for 25 years, it’s not a coincidence. It’s the result of proven reliability over decades, a wide range of models suitable for all ages and uses, advanced technology and safety systems, sporty and impressive design, and more.

Alongside all of this is Metro Freesbe’s service network, adding peace of mind and security. That’s why SYM is not just the best-selling scooter in Israel — it’s the transport tool that allows living right here: Less waiting, more movement, and the confidence that someone has your back all the way.
