This article focuses on the “cruiser models,” selecting five representative companies’ new cruisers, introduced in order of increasing engine displacement.

DIHAO: MERNODI IRONKING HT250-G & BULLWARRIOR HT250-G

From Jiangmen, Dihao Motorcycle owns the brands “MERNODI” and “HT,” with products exported to Europe, the Middle East, Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia. At this Canton Fair, Dihao showcased two new 250cc cruiser models: MERNODI IRONKING HT250-G and BULLWARRIOR HT250-G.

Both models are equipped with a single-cylinder oil-cooled engine, delivering a maximum power of 12.5 kW/8,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 16 N·m/5,000 rpm, with a compression ratio of 9.2:1. The two bikes share similar performance specs but differ in design elements such as fuel tank styling, headlight shape, and color schemes—one in red and the other in green—injecting fresh vitality into the retro cruiser market and further enriching Dihao’s product lineup in the small-displacement cruiser segment.

MARSHAL: JOY315 & YES418A

Marshal presented two highly promising cruiser models.

The JOY315, officially launched in the Chinese market on February 11 this year, comes in two configurations: a chain-driven version (priced at ¥15,680) and a belt-driven version (priced at ¥16,680). It is powered by a 298.1cc inline twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, producing a maximum power of 22.6 kW/8,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 27.8 N·m/ 6,500 rpm, with a compression ratio of 11.5:1.

The other model, the YES418A, was newly released on April 8. It is available in two versions for the Chinese market: the enjoy version (¥19,980) and the premium version (¥21,418). This motorcycle is equipped with a 384.5cc V-twin liquid-cooled engine, delivering a maximum power of 29 kW/8,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 36 N·m/ 4,500 rpm, with a compression ratio of 11.8:1. It offers five color options, with the “Maple Red” variant displayed at the fair. It’s design exudes steady and imposing aesthetic, adopting a classic American soft-tail style, which drew continuous crowds of overseas buyers eager to negotiate deals.

DAYANG V450

Dayang Motorcycle unveiled its new cruiser model—the V450, which has not yet been launched in the Chinese market. This motorcycle is equipped with a 438cc V-twin engine, producing a maximum power of 28 kW/ 8,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 38.5 N·m/ 6,250 rpm, with a compression ratio of 11.5:1.

The introduction of the V450 not only fills the gap in Dayang’s mid-to-large displacement cruiser lineup but also reflects its proactive response to diverse market demands. With Dayang’s reputation for product stability and manufacturing excellence, the V450 is poised to become a new choice for cruiser enthusiasts worldwide.

KOVE Lancer (625V)

The KOVE Lancer (known domestically as the “Lancer 625V”) has already garnered significant attention domestically and internationally, even before its official launch. Its power system features a 578.2cc V-twin liquid-cooled engine, delivering a maximum power of 45 kW/ 8,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 60 N·m/5,500 rpm, with a compression ratio of 12.1:1.

The standout feature of this motorcycle is its exceptional long-range capability, thanks to a dual-tank design with a total fuel capacity of 20L, greatly enhancing its suitability for long-distance cruising. As a brand backed by WSBK world championship credentials, KOVE’s product philosophy extends its racing pedigree, balancing technology and practicality, making it highly competitive in the market.

JONWAY Roadstar 800

From Taizhou, Zhejiang, the JONWAY Group stands out among its peers by focusing not only on scooters but also on long-term development in niche segments like cruisers and reverse tricycles. At this Canton Fair, JONWAY showcased a new large-displacement cruiser—the Roadstar 800.

This model boasts a maximum power of 45 kW/ 8,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 61.2 N·m/ 5,500 rpm, with a compression ratio of 10.3:1. Its dimensions are 2,450 × 970 × 1,330 mm, with a curb weight of 244 kg. The motorcycle’s bold and rugged design, combined with a mature and stable technical platform, highlights JONWAY’s R&D capabilities and market ambitions in the large-displacement cruiser segment.
