Spain is a country linked to two wheels. Our lifestyle, climate and socialization are the breeding ground for creating motorcycle fans. The incredible secondary roads, the vast majority in good condition, are the perfect excuse to discover the territory on the back of a machine that transmits freedom and adrenaline to each curve. This affinity is also transferred to our day to day, with special mention to the city of Barcelona as the city with the most motorcycles in Europe in 2018 . 22.2% of the mobile park in the city is two-wheeled and the presence of scooters surprises any visitor. This type of vehicle accounted for 56% of registrations in 2019 and it is not surprising. Scooters allow more fluid mobility between traffic and finding parking is usually not a problem. Two key aspects to become the owners of our most inhabited cities.

Many workers will continue to perform their functions from home but many others will have to make an appearance at their positions. Fortunately, motorcycles offer an individual style of mobility and without the risk of contagion by not coming into contact with other people in a confined space. They are the safest alternative to public transport and emit 50% less CO2 compared to other motorized vehicles, according to ADEME (French Environmental Agency). Not only that, the National Association of Companies of the Two-Wheel Sector (ANESDOR) ensures that the replacement of 10% of the current fleet of other vehicles with motorcycles would reduce the time we spend in traffic jams by 40% .

This last segment is the most successful for obvious reasons, you will only need the B card and three years of experience . Now let’s see which models were sold the most in 2019 and which of them best suits your personality.
