With 6,990 registrations compared to 5,694 in 2025 (+22.8%), the sector records its best start to the season since 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">In March 2026 alone, 3,169 motorcycles were registered. That is +10.2% compared to March 2025 and +5.5% above the average for a March month in the 2021\u20132025 period (3,004 units).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">The <strong>second-hand market<\/strong> is also performing well during the first quarter, rising from 12,757 to 13,705 units, an increase of +7.4%. <\/span><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">The used car market has therefore recovered, as evidenced by a 15.3% increase compared to 2024 and a 22.2% increase compared to 2023. However, it remains structurally lower than before the introduction of the second-hand inspection in 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Second-hand inspection<\/h4>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">The good news is that the rise in the second-hand market continues across virtually all engine categories. <\/span><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Honda remains the largest used vehicle brand, ahead of BMW, Yamaha, Kawasaki, and Piaggio.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">The second-hand market clearly performed better in the first quarter than last year. However, it remains to be seen what effect the announced abolition of the second-hand inspection in Flanders will have.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Flanders was also the largest second-hand market in 2025 (59.7%), followed by Wallonia (31.9%) and Brussels (8.2%). <\/span><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">We also see increases in almost all provinces, from +0.3% in Antwerp to +25.4% in Walloon Brabant. Only Namur and West Flanders are losing ground slightly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">The strongest risers are in the 125cc category, which increases by 13.7% and has a market share of 31.5%, or nearly 1 in 3 second-hand registrations.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Brussels Motor Show<\/h4>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">After five years, motorcycles returned to the Brussels Motor Show, and according to motorcycle dealers, this had an immediate positive impact. <\/span><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Showrooms are once again attracting many customers with a broad interest in all kinds of two-wheelers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Thanks in part to the Brussels Motor Show, 2026 got off to such a strong start. <\/span><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Quite a few interesting new models and updates were presented, which certainly sparked interest in buying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Flanders remains the largest region, accounting for 57.9% of new motorcycle sales in Belgium. Wallonia accounts for 35.8%, and Brussels 6.3%. Since o<\/span><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">lder motorcycles are no longer allowed in Brussels, riders are encouraged to buy new or more recent models and scooters. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Most popular brands<\/h4>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">But in fact, all provinces are doing well with increases of at least +9.2%. The m<\/span>ost popular brands remain Honda, BMW, Yamaha, and Kawasaki. <span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">At the top of the manufacturers&#8217; rankings, Honda is narrowly ahead of BMW. Yamaha makes a strong comeback and takes third place, ahead of Kawasaki and the Chinese CF Moto, which rises by no less than 158% compared to 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">In the new market, the main focus remains on the impact of the tense geopolitical situation, rising oil prices, and declining consumer confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">The second-hand market will likely be shaken up again from the autumn onward by the abolition of technical inspections in Flanders (hopefully in a positive way), and it remains to be seen what the other regions will do.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Belgian market for new motorcycles concludes the first quarter with distinctly positive momentum.
