On some of the Euro sites they spec a top speed for the bikes. I found a french site with that info on my Yager.
I was surprised the 150 and 200 (actually 170) are only 1 km/h different (109 km/h for Yager)!

Kymco UK has this to say about the 300i;

"That can Achieve a top speed of with a 90mph @ 8000rpm Powerful 29.5bhp"

That's the power rating for the Downtown, the People should be around 28hp.

I've seen 100mph with a tail wind on a test bike with 6000km (4k miles) on it.
Going the other way, it would still do over 90mph.

It was a bit faster then the Downtown test bike I had for a weekend (by about 5mph).

My own DT300 is a lot slower with it's huge 50l topcase and a big windscreen, even with
the malossi multivar and dr pulley sliders. Often won't go over 85mph.

Oh ya your right when I see GTI 300 I think Downtown. I keep forgetting there is a People 300 now!

Kymco stop naming everything so darn similar! Call it the ST300 or 300RR or something!

It looks like it was the People S 300i but now for the US it's the GTi 300 , my scoot is getting
smaller every day!

Okay guys finally tested out my 300. She is a powerhouse indeed. I have only taken her up to 125kph and the powerband at that speed is awesome. Not sure if she would do over 130kph. I need more road to do so. Having said that I still have the 125cc coil on her. Not sure if that is restricting my speed. But I am happy with this speed.

I have never taken my GTi300 past 75mph (I'm a wussy) I don't feel comfortable cruising @ those speeds. But it felt like it have more left over after 75mph. 28.7HP is impressive. Plenty of torque, which is what I want!

Call me curios, is a wussy a female wuss? You people remind me of my students asking me all the time how fast my MC would go.
