Motorcycle sales in Europe – Germany in particular – have witnessed a significant uptick in 2023. Sales date from the country shows that the motorcycle market is on a five-year high, with 2023 proving to be the best year in terms of sales for multiple manufacturers. Recent model debuts in the market have surely driven up demand, and more and more people are buying motorcycles.
German motorcycling publication Motorrad cites data from the KBA which shows that 2023 has been a very strong year for the German motorcycle market. A total of 102,152 motorcycles have been newly registered from January to August, 2023, marking a 16-percent increase versus the same period in 2022. 2022 saw just 88,050 new registrations for the same period, while 2021, the year when things started going back to normal, saw 94,808 from January to August.
