In September, sales of new motorcycles grew by another 11%. This is not as impressive as the May jump of 65%, but it allows dealers to close the season with a noticeable plus. Over the nine months of 2025, the market added 20%, and it seems that buyer interest is not fading.
The most popular among Ukrainians remain naked and classic models — they account for approximately 62% of all sales. Enduro holds the second position with a share of 30%. The rest of the categories are still barely noticeable — each barely reaches 1%, although scooters hold at 4% (last year this figure was 5%).
The trend is clear: the market is increasingly oriented towards enduro motorcycles, which showed growth of 23% over nine months. At the same time, classic and urban models continue to be a stable base of sales.
The battle for leadership remains tense — a permanent favorite has not emerged. In September, Lifan took the top spot, and this is already its second leadership in 2025 (it first topped the ranking in April).
Chinese Spark, Musstang, and Forte have been moving at almost the same pace throughout the year. After nine months, Spark is still at the top of the table, but the intrigue remains until the very end — other brands have serious intentions.
In September, Honda noticeably gained, almost catching up with Indian Bajaj — a long-time player in the budget segment. Thanks to reliability and an active advertising campaign, the Japanese surpassed not only Yamaha and Suzuki, but even Chinese Viper, which a few years ago seemed beyond competition.
Thus, the Ukrainian motorcycle market is actively changing, reshaping ideas about demand and the balance of power. If this pace holds, 2025 could become one of the best years for the motorcycle sector in the last ten years.
