New registrations November 2020: Top 20 most popular models

New registrations November 2020
Boom continues, BMW GS ahead of Tenere

Everyone is only talking about Corona. In the shadow of the pandemic, the motorcycle market in Germany is aiming for new record levels. With the November figures, the previous year’s overall result has already been easily equalized.

Uli Baumann

December 16, 2020

As of the end of November 2020, 205,226 motorized two-wheelers have been newly registered in Germany this year. In 2019, the total number of new two-wheeler registrations in Germany added up to just 165,442 vehicles. Late start of the season due to Corona – obviously not a real issue. Restrained desire to buy because of the upcoming Euro 5 – also not applicable. The desire for bikes seems to flare up again in the context of the discussions about new mobility. The 125 class in particular is booming.

Strong November, even stronger 125 cc

Bjorn Gramm

Here, however, it does not seem that the young pilots are the driving force, but rather those who switch to cars, who can more easily get on two-wheelers with the new B196 license. Light motorcycles alone have increased by 69.1 percent to 33,385 new registrations in the year to date. In the case of 125 scooters, the plus is even 101 percent and 26,619 new registrations. If we only look at November 2020, the numbers get even more blatant. 2,038 newly registered light motorcycles represent a year-on-year increase of 126.7 percent. The hammer follows with the 125cc scooters. 1,223 new registrations result in an incredible 298.4 percent increase.

In terms of motorcycles, 123,237 newly registered bikes ensure an increase of 11.8 percent compared to the previous year. New motorcycle registrations recorded a whopping 116.7 percent increase in November with 5,807 machines that received a license plate for the first time. New registrations of the large scooters are developing solely against the trend. With 16,099 new registrations so far, this is a minus of 0.3 percent. If you look at the November result, the tide can still turn here by the end of the year. In the month under review, 708 large scooters received a license plate, 88.3 percent more than in the same month of the previous year.

BMW dominates the market

BMW

Almost all brands are benefiting from the two-wheel boom in Germany. BMW remains the market leader with 25,746 new registrations in the first eleven months and a market share of 20.9 percent. The second force on the German market is KTM (15,196 new registrations / 12.3%). Honda ranks just behind (14,508 / 11.8%). On the other places behind the podium follow Kawasaki (14,418 / 11.7%), Yamaha (12,303 / 10.0%), Harley-Davidson (10,308 / 8.4%), Triumph (5,809 / 4.7%), Suzuki (5,796 / 4.7%) and Ducati (5,180 / 4.2%). Behind them are Husqvarna, Royal Enfield, Indian, Moto Guzzi and Aprilia.

BMW and Yamaha are bestsellers

Royal Enfield

The Royal Enfield 500 also makes it into the top 20.

As usual, BMW dominates the bestseller list in November with the GS. Second place goes to the Yamaha Tenere 700. In third place is the R 18, a second BMW. The rest of the list is packed, with KTM placing five models in the top 20. BMW, Kawasaki and Honda have three, Yamaha and Harley two, Royal Enfield and Suzuki each have one.
