Benelli has been landing some impressive sales figures over the recent years.

Back in 2020, the China-owned company marked an impressive sales performance with the Benelli TRK 502 crowned as the best-selling bike in Italy.

The TRK 502 is a good sized bike, though a little cramped for taller riders.

However, its 2021 sales figures smashed its 2020 record in 2021 with Italian publication, Moto.IT reported that Benelli registered a 57 per cent growth compared to 2020.

Not only that, the Benelli TRK 502 adventure motorcycle managed to hold on to its top spot as the best selling bike in the region, with over 6,543 units sold in 2021 alone.

Moreover, two other models, the Leoncino 500 and Benelli BN 125 made it to the top 15 best-selling bikes for 2021, marking another proud moment.

“We are very satisfied with the goals achieved in 2021, but we are convinced that these results are not a point of arrival but a stimulus to improve our performance, day after day.

“There are many Italian motorcyclists who have decided to trust us in recent years by purchasing our vehicles and now we are ready to offer them new and exciting models that will complete the range, such as Leoncino 125, Leoncino 800, Leoncino 800 Trail and TRK 800,” said Gianni Monini, Benelli Italy sales manager.

Looking at the numbers, Benelli currently holds a significant portion in the 300cc to 500cc segment in Italy, with a 40 per cent market share. This means that the company might make a strong impact in the bigger segment in the coming years once the TRK 800, Leoncino 800 and the big 1200 GT tourer make their way to Europe.

Jenama motosikal Itali-China, Benelli, telah melancarkan Leoncino 500 Sport 2021.

Diperkenalkan sebagai jentera konsep empat tahun lalu di EICMA, Leoncino 500 Sport ini menawarkan ciri sebuah motosikal cafe-racer hasil penggunaan beberapa komponen bagi membezakan dengan versi standard.

Antara ciri baharu diperkenalkan adalah handlebar jenis clip-on, headlight cowl, ekzos jenis double-barrel, rim jenis spoke dan beg sandang kecil di sebelah kanan.

Model ini juga didatangkan dengan paparan digital LCD dengan nyalaan biru.

Bagaimanapun, model ini masih lagi dikuasakan enjin parellel-twn 499.6cc yang menjana 48hp pada 8,500rpm dan 47Nm pada 5,500rpm.

Sistem suspension juga kekal dengan fork upside/down 50mm depan dan monoshock di belakang.

Selepas kejayaan memasarkan Leoncino 500 dan TRK 502, pengeluar motosikal Itali, Benelli bakal perkukuhkan jenama mereka dengan melancarkan Benelli 302S.

Benelli 302S merupakan motosikal segmen ‘entry level’ yang akan menggantikan TNT 300.

Jentera ini telah pun dipasarkan di Amerika Syarikat dengan harga USD4,299 (RM17,920).

Tidak seperti TNT 300, 302S telah didatangkan dengan rekaan serba baharu serta enjin yang lebih berkuasa.

Model ini turut dilengkapi beberapa ciri baharu antaranya lampu projektor LED dan paparan digital.

Bagaimanapun, seperti model sebelumnya, 302S turut mengguna pakai kerangka steel trellis.

Antara perbezaan ketara, TNT300 menggunakan enjin 282cc namun 302S dilengkapi enjin 300cc, parallel twin 4-lejang DOHC yang menjana 37.5 hp (32.2 hp pada TNT 300) pada 11,000 rpm dan 25.62 Nm pada 9,000 rpm.

Bagi menjamin keselamatan, brek kaliper depan adalah jenis empat piston 260 mm dual-disc dan kaliper dua piston 240mm dengan single disc di bahagian belakang.

Meskipun masih tiada maklumat mengenai model baharu ini di Malaysia, kami menjangkakan pegumuman rasmi akan dibuat dalam masa terdekat.
