The market of new motorcycles fell by 12% in January

Russian market of new motorcycles for the first time for the last 9 months showed negative dynamics. Until January 2021, according to the analytical agency AUTOSTAT, it grew continuously, and this growth was expressed in double-digit figures. However, in the first month of 2021, Russians purchased only 183 motorcycles and this result is lower by 12% than in January of 2020 (207 units).

In the brand ranking, German BMW is the first one with the result of 32 purchased motorcycles. It is followed by Motoland (21) and Bajaj (20). Harley-Davidson and Racer (15 and 12 units respectively) surpassed the mark of 10 units. For other brands, this indicator is lower.

In total, more than a third of all sold motorcycles in January belonged to Moscow and Moscow region (39 and 24 units, respectively). Other 17 new motorcycles were purchased in the Krasnodar Territory, and 15 - in St. Petersburg. No other region of the Russian Federation has crossed the 10-unit threshold. Recall that such sluggishness in purchasing power is a traditional phenomenon in the winter months, as the motorcycle market is highly seasonal.
