Having been +30.76 percent for May (2,032 units), the latest data available from the motorcycle industry trade association in Sweden (McRF) shows new motorcycle registrations at +5.81 percent for June (1,329 units) and tracking at +4.31 percent (6,870 units) for the first six months of the year.
Having been +18.66 percent (4,292 units) for May, new registrations of all PTWs in Sweden were tracking at -0.59 (14,349 units) for the first six months of the year.
With moped registrations down by -20.51 percent in June and running at -4.70 percent YTD (7,479 units), the overall PTW market in Sweden for the first six months of 2018, the small cc Euro 4 to Euro 4 transition that kicked in with January 2018 continues to keep the overall PTW market suppressed, but a very good snowmobile market (+15 percent at 10,878 units) has kept the powersports industry in Sweden “in shape”.
