Following a recent announcement by Harley-Davidson that it would develop a family of sub-400cc motorcycles with a Chinese partner, MV Agusta has now followed suit.
The iconic Italian company will join forces with Loncin to produce a four-model family with displacements between 350 and 500cc as it looks to increase its presence throughout Asia.
The motorcycles will be available for sale by the end of 2021, with the strategic alliance also seeing MV Agusta developing a family of mid- to large-capacity products for VOGE, Loncin’s high-end brand.

Our target is to reaffirm our leadership in the production of upper-premium motorcycles, while also enlarging our customer base by offering a broader range of products without compromising our distinctive design and performance.
“We are looking forward to grow with the right partners and the right products, making sure that our clients enjoy the larger choice of models, all of which share the same DNA and MV Agusta pedigree.”
