What’s Fueling PH Motorcycle Sales? An MDPPA Q2 2025 Deep Dive

The Philippine motorcycle industry continues to ride high in Q2 2025, with total sales hitting 910,923 units, up 4.8%from the 876,074 units sold in Q2 2024. This steady growth reflects the ongoing demand for two-wheeled transport in the country, driven by their affordability, fuel efficiency, and ability to navigate heavy urban traffic. “Filipinos continue to see two-wheeled vehicles as a practical solution to daily commuting challenges,” said Alex Cumpas, President of the Motorcycle Development Program Participants Association, Inc. (MDPPA).

Breaking down the Q2 2025 figures, the Automatic/Scooter segment continues to dominate sales, supported by the convenience and ease of riding these models. Other categories—such as mopeds, street bikes, business models, big bikes, and niche motorcycles—also maintained steady performance, reflecting broad-based demand across the market. The rise is attributed to factors like the need for personal mobility, improved economic conditions, and accessible financing options, all of which have made motorcycle ownership more attainable.
