The Manaus Industrial Pole motorcycle manufacturers produced 1,323,004 units until October, 10.4% more than last year (1,198,889).
The data released this Tuesday, 11/14, by Abraciclo, the Brazilian association of motorcycles, bicycles and similar manufacturers, point that the sector shall end the year with the 10% growth estimated in January despite the hurdles due to the drought in Manaus that has hampered the arrival of parts in the plants.
“The industry is operating according to the planned and maintains the production pace to meet the market demand, which keeps growing”, asserted Abraciclo’s president, Marcos Bento, recalling that the goal is to reach 1.56 million motorcycles in 2023.
October’s production reached 131,331 units, 4.4% less than in 2022 (137,346 units) and 6.4% under September (140,251). The reduction is due to October’s fewer working days, according to Abraciclo.
Due to the draught, some manufacturers decided to anticipate to November the end-of-year vacations, like Yamaha and Kawasaki. Honda, the largest manufacturer, is adopting logistics options to maintain production up to the end of the year.
