Experts of the Institute of Car Market Research analyzed the statistics of motorcycle registrations and identified the most popular brands in three segments: used import, domestic resale, and among new motorcycles.
Dynamics of the motorcycle market
In the motorcycle segment, the expected seasonal decrease in the pace of sales came in the fall. So, in October, Ukrainians bought 4.4 thousand of all motorcycles. This is 9.4 % more than in the same period last year, but (projected) 29.8% less than in September 2024.
Among the total number, 55% of motorcycles were new (imported from abroad), quantitatively, this is 2,446 units.
On the domestic market, 1,725 contracts for the purchase and sale of motor vehicles were concluded, which accounted for 38.8% of the total number.
Only 6.2% of motorcycles were imported used from abroad (277 units).
By individual sub-segments, the dynamics of motorcycle sales (where seasonality is very clearly expressed, and the primary importance is the year-to-year comparison) looks as follows (comparing last month to the month before it, M-M; and last month to the same month last year year, YY):
- Domestic resales: -21.6% MM, +24.5% YY
- Used imports: -33.6% MM, +11.7% YY
