Brazil sold 199,181 motorcycles, scooters and mopeds in July 2026, up 3.11% year-on-year and 2.55% month-on-month. Year-to-date sales through July are up 12.37%. Zontes surged 75% month-on-month while Ducati fell 52%.
From a market perspective, Brazil's 12.37% year-to-date growth is hard to ignore. Honda still holds 65% share, but a Chinese newcomer like Zontes pushing 75% month-on-month growth mirrors patterns I've watched play out across India and Southeast Asia. It's another number showing the center of gravity shifting toward emerging-market streets.

12% YTD growth might just mean Brazil's economy is picking up
Zontes up 75% shows how aggressive the Chinese brands are getting
Back in the day Honda's dominance wasn't even up for debate
Ducati down 52% is honestly brutal
Honda's 65% share is just dominant
So 65% is basically a near-monopoly then?
