The sales of motorcycles and light vehicles They are still very low and February has closed with a drop of 22.1%, a collapse that barely lets a sector breathe that, things in life, in the first two months of last year registered historic registration figures.
However, the pandemic and the state of alarm decreed in March put an end to the illusions of the two-wheel market, which continues to try to raise its head in a Spain still with mobility restrictions to stop coronavirus infections.

If some dreamed at the end of 2019 and the beginning of 2020 with a few months of historical figures in the motorcycle market, in reality there have been, but to disgrace for the worse. Last year it closed with 9.2% in red and in January there was already talk of a negative 39.2% drop in registrations.
It is clear that 2021 has not started well and although February crash is 22.1%The truth is that the continuity of movement restrictions in the country and the absence of purchase aid do not help either to reestablish acquisitions, according to ANESDOR data.

As for the rest of light vehicles, it is necessary to highlight a year-on-year increase in sales of 6.3%.
What these data do point to is a progressive increase in motorcycle acquisitions between the first week of February and the last, which could indicate a revitalization in the coming months, although it is still too early to know what will happen.
