2023 has just begun, and things are looking pretty good for the Italian motorcycle market. January, 2023, has seen an impressive 37.7-percent spike in motorcycle sales in Italy—and we haven’t even entered the spring and summer riding months. Data provided by the Associazione Nazionale Ciclo Motociclo Accessori (ANCMA) indicates that the start of the year has seen a lot of growth in Italy’s motorcycle segment. Let’s take a closer look.
In total, 21,374 two-wheelers were sold in Italy in January, 2023. Unsurprisingly, scooters accounted for more than half of these, with 10,720 units sold. This marks a whopping 77.4-percent increase versus January of 2022. Up next, motorcycles accounted for 9,482 registrations in January, 2023, a 22-percent increase versus the same period last year. Up next, mopeds saw a decline by 33.9 percent, selling just 1,112 units in January, 2023. ANCMA, however, states that there was a special order received in January 2022, resulting in inflated sales figures for that time frame.
