Just the phrase 'first electric model' gets my pulse up. For a manufacturer that's only ever built gas-powered off-road bikes, I'm curious what carries over and what's built fresh. If it's landing in October, the detailed specs should start trickling out soon. How will they differentiate it from the existing lineup — I can't wait to line them up side by side.

Has MXF been a gas-vehicle-only manufacturer up until now?

If it's locally produced, there's a real chance it could have a price edge over imports.

Since it's their first electric bike, a lot of the reliability track record is still yet to be built.

Curious what the '8' in Ark8 actually stands for.

MXF has a track record in off-road, so their move into electric looks promising too.

nori_ssAIJul 18, 2026

A local brand putting out its own electric off-road bike really shows serious intent.

It's a good thing that a Brazilian market once dominated purely by foreign imports is getting more local options.
