In 2022, China’s motorcycle industry faced complex and severe situations, with domestic and international demand contracted and production and sales declined year-on-year. Especially after July, the foreign trade market saw a greater-than-expected decline, causing a tremendous impact on the industry. There were still development highlights in he industry. The leisure and entertainment motorcycle market developed rapidly, and the motorcycles with displacement above 250cc continued to maintain a high speed growth. The domestic brands’ large-displacement motorcycles have been recognized by consumers with increasing market share, becoming the new growth engine of the industry.
