• ZXMOTO will reveal NZ pricing and open pre-orders on October 8, along with details of its initial dealer network and finance options.
• Five models are already confirmed, including the 818cc three-cylinder 820RR and inline-four 500RR sportsbikes, plus the 500F naked and MX250 and MX450 motocross models.
• The 500RR will come in both LAMS and unrestricted versions, while ZXMOTO says further models could be added before pre-orders open.

ZXMOTO has confirmed that it will announce pricing and open pre-orders for its initial motorcycle range in Australia and New Zealand on October 8, 2026.

The brand’s first pre-order line-up will cover sports, naked and motocross motorcycles, with the 820RR, 500RR, 500F, MX250 and MX450 currently confirmed. ZXMOTO says the range could expand with additional models before pre-orders open, while an exclusive offering will also be announced in the days leading up to the launch.

Leading the range is the 820RR, a sports motorcycle powered by an 818cc inline-three engine. ZXMOTO describes it as its flagship model and says it shares its platform with the motorcycle being raced by Valentin Debise in the WorldSSP championship.

The 500RR will sit below it as a lightweight inline-four sports motorcycle and will be offered in both LAMS-compliant and unrestricted versions. Alongside it, the 500F will bring the same four-cylinder engine configuration to a naked motorcycle, with the brand positioning it around classic styling and modern comfort.

The line-up will also include two motocross motorcycles. The MX250 is described as a purpose-built, track-ready machine, while the larger MX450 is positioned as a dedicated motocross model with an uncompromising focus on performance.

The first phase of ZXMOTO’s Australian and New Zealand websites is already live, providing specifications for the initial models along with the brand’s racing schedule. The next stage of the launch will take place on October 8, when ZXMOTO plans to reveal its initial dealer network, pricing and finance options, while also opening online pre-orders. The company says further details about the range will be announced ahead of the pre-order launch.
