CFMOTO at EICMA 2026: Highlights and New Models

Milan, Italy, CFMOTO attracted all the attention at EICMA with the unveiling of a range of new models and innovations. The brand new 1000MT-X was presented as the flagship of the adventure line, accompanied by the stylish CRAFTED version. In addition, CFMOTO demonstrated its design prowess with the 675NK GP concept and made the biggest impression with the powerful V4 1000 SR-RR prototype.

The 82nd edition of EICMA welcomed more than half a million visitors to the Fiera Milano this week, following the record 600,000 visitors in 2024. CFMOTO managed to grab attention right in the first hours by highlighting their models, products and innovations for 2026. They also presented their future plans, celebrated a successful motorsport year and shared inspiring stories from their global community projects.

CFMOTO kicked off with the motor press conference, led by Markus Ferch, VP Sales for Europe. Ferch explained that CFMOTO's core principle - to design, develop and produce technically advanced, market-oriented motorbikes with high production quality that still remain affordable - ensures continuous growth. CFMOTO now has more than 9,000 specialised employees and supplies over 7,000 dealers in 100 countries, with millions of customers worldwide.

CFMOTO's evolution is based on continuous R&D, reliable and attractive products and an ever-widening diversification with a global vision. Over the past two years, the company has also invested in several sub-brands, including ZEEHO, which focuses on electric mobility solutions with progressive design, and CFMOTO CRAFTED, which develops original parts, apparel and accessories in line with CFMOTO's vehicles.

Carles Solsona, Design Director for CFMOTO's two-wheeler segment, then presented the current and future highlights. Heading towards 2026, CFMOTO has built a portfolio with eight distinct categories. From sport to cruiser, adventure to scooter and with bikes from 125cc to over 1000cc, including the SR, MT, NK and SCOOTER series, plus the electric sub-brand ZEEHO.

The central theme for the EICMA stand was “FUTURE FASTER”, focusing on launches in 2026 and beyond. The MT series has developed strongly in recent years thanks to its versatility and the advanced riding experience it offers. The MT models have clearly struck a chord with both young and experienced motorcyclists, as evidenced by the first edition of the CFMOTO MT CHALLENGE, a community event in nearly 20 countries that culminated in a global final in Australia. This initiative highlights CFMOTO's ongoing efforts to strengthen its connection with riders worldwide.

Building on this foundation, Solsona enthusiastically presented the new 1000MT-X, the top model within the MT series. The engine is powered by a 946.2 cc parallel twin with 83 kW (111 hp) at 8500 rpm and torque of 105 Nm at 6250 rpm. The Bosch MSE 9.0 EFI provides a refined throttle response developed over more than 100,000 test kilometres. With a dry weight of 199 kg and a 22.5-litre fuel tank the 1000MT-X offers a range of more than 450 km. Thanks to the slim ergonomics and 2-in-1 saddle, comfort remains optimal, both sitting and standing.

The engine is built for long distances, with high-quality components such as aerospace-grade 7-series aluminium rims, Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tyres, fully adjustable KYB suspension and a Brembo brake system. Advanced technologies such as the Bosch 6-axis IMU, five driving modes, ABS, dynamic traction control, quickshifter, TPMS, cruise control and heated grips and seat are part of the standard equipment. Via the robust 8-inch touchscreen TFT display gives the rider access to all functions. The 1000MT-X appears in two colours: Zephyr Blue and Tactical Green.

The dedication to the 1000MT-X inspired the designers to create the 1000MT-X CRAFTED, a special concept version for EICMA that shows how the model can be personalised. The CRAFTED version got bronze forks and wheels, satin grey engine covers, a frame protector, magnetic swingarm cover and crash bars, resulting in a premium and robust look. The concept emphasises that the 1000MT-X is not just a motorbike, but a canvas for personal expression.

The launch gained additional momentum when the 675NK GP entered the stage. This midweight naked combines functionality with driving pleasure, wrapped in a striking design and with impressive technical specifications. CFMOTO welcomed representatives of the Aspar Racing Team, five-time Grand Prix winners in Moto3 and Moto2, to officially introduce the 675NK GP. The special edition has a race-inspired livery and quality components paying tribute to CFMOTO's top-level achievements.

Although it MotoGP season 2025 still in full swing, CFMOTO is already thinking ahead. Solsona therefore gave an important update on the development of the V4 engine, which was announced in late 2024, and is now coming to life in the 1000SR-RR prototype.

The 1000SR-RR constitutes the new highlight of the SR series and symbolises CFMOTO's vision of the future. The engine combines advanced R&D with aesthetic refinement. The 997cc 90° V4 delivers more than 210 hp (157 kW) at a weight below 200 kg, which makes for an impressive power-to-weight ratio of less than 1 kg per hp. Each component is designed for instant throttle response and maximum control, both on the street and on the track.

Thanks to semi-active electronic suspension, a Akrapovic exhaust system and advanced electronics, the V4 SR-RR offers top performance and a sporty look that exudes power, precision and future-readiness. The model serves as a platform for future high-performance bikes within the CFMOTO family.

In addition to these big reveals, CFMOTO also presented the new 800NK MSC, 800MT-ES and 125SC-F, while the electric sub-brand ZEEHO impressed with the AE8 MAX and AE7.
