Chinese motorcycle brands expand global market presence

Chinese motorcycle manufacturers are expanding their global presence through new product reveals and regional market entries. At the CIMA Motor 2026 exhibition in Chongqing, Cyclone revealed three new mid-displacement models: the RT450 GT scooter, the RX628 trail bike, and the AQS628 cruiser featuring a V-Twin engine.

Simultaneously, ZXMoto introduced the 600V, a retro-style cruiser with a 578 cc V-engine. The model has drawn attention for its geometric design and its mid-range pricing of 27,980 yuan, positioning it between competitors like CFMoto and Benda.

In Argentina, the brand Benda has officially entered the local market through the distributor La Emilia. The initial launch includes two 500 cc models, the Chinchilla 500 and the Napoleon Bob 500, targeting the mid-displacement custom and cruiser segments via an established dealer network.
