China bikes celebrate market launch in Germany

The motorcycle brand Voge is unlikely to be known to too many people in this country. That could change soon, because the bikes of the Chinese motorcycle brand will very soon also be available in Germany.

B.Before we dedicate ourselves to the models offered in Germany, a few lines about the Voge motorcycle brand, with which very few people know what to do with. Voge is a subsidiary of the Chinese motorcycle manufacturer Loncin, which according to its own statements is one of the three largest two-wheel manufacturers in the world. The group was founded in 1993 in Chongqing. Loncin now employs around 7,000 people worldwide. Loncin also builds engines for BMW, more precisely the in-line two-cylinder for the 750/850. Recently, a cooperation with MV Agusta was announced. The Chinese manufacturer is to build motorcycles in the displacement range from 350 to 500 cm³ for MV Agusta in the future. Otherwise, the focus of the manufacturer is on two-wheelers with weaker engines, which are mainly offered in Asia. The aim is to make a name for themselves in Germany with the Voge motorcycle brand. The Bavarian company MSA GmbH will import the Voge motorcycles. The four models 300R, 300AC, 500R and 500DS will initially be offered.
