Market Research Future (MRFR) projects the global off-road high-performance vehicle market to expand at a significant pace
Although the off-road vehicle industry has not completely recovered since the recession, the recently stabilizing industry is seeing a change in fortune with increasing demand for motorcycles and four-wheelers alike, especially off-road high-performance vehicles.
Yamaha dominated the volume race in the off-road high-performance vehicle market with a market share of nearly 30%, closely followed by Honda with a market share of approximately 23%. Yamaha’s WR450F is one of the best-selling off-road high-performance vehicles, along with YZ250F topping the sales charts for motocross. In recent years, the motorcycle industry has been undergoing a spell of stabilization. The industry as a whole is expected to return to a rapid surge in demand, with the Off-road high-performance vehicle segment increasing in popularity among individuals.
With every major motorcycle manufacturer focusing on product growth and innovation in their Off-road segments, the market has become swamped with high-quality products in a variety of price ranges. The declining global scooter market is another indicator of increased market acceptance of entry-level motorcycles by new customers. Honda, a major automobile manufacturer, generates a large portion of its sales from its motorcycles division (USD 410 million), of which off-road high-performance vehicles are a significant segment.
The recent shift in the preference for mileage to vehicle looks and features is also projected to result in the high demand for off-road motorcycles. The global off-road high-performance vehicle market is expected to expand during the forecast period as a result of rising population, rapid industrialization, and aggressive expansion of the manufacturing sector.
