Although still a shadow of the scale it enjoyed before the 2008 financial crisis, Spain’s powered two-wheeler market continues to recover. Registrations in June rose by 34.2% to 15,167 units, with unregistered 50cc machines up by 30.5% to 1890 units, according to national industry association ANESDOR. Scooters accounted for 68.1% of that market but, encouragingly, sales of over-750cc motorcycles grew 47.5% to 2021 units.
For the six months of 2015 to date, total Spanish PTW sales are up by 20.3% to 71,630 units, the best figures achieved since the first half of 2011.
