In 2023, the market size for motorcycles with spark ignition engines of less than 50 cc in France was valued at approximately $200 million. For the upcoming years, a significant downward trend is observed. The market value is expected to decline from $161.88 million in 2024 to $14.585 million by 2028. This represents a substantial year-on-year decrease, with an estimated compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of around -39.27% over the five years.

Future trends to watch for:

Shifts toward electric alternatives and sustainability efforts may further impact the demand for traditional small-engine motorcycles.
Regulatory changes could accelerate this transition or affect production and sales dynamics in the sector.
Potential growth in leisure and urban transport segments might open niche opportunities despite the overall downturn.
