During the year, mopeds, scooters and motorcycles recorded a double-digit increase with a performance of + 21.2%, equal to 289,067 vehicles: the market recovered and exceeded the volumes of 2012, when 255,000 vehicles were sold. The only negative sign is what comes from mopeds, which recorded a decrease of 4.7% and 18,835 vehicles sold, for the first time (apart from the anomalous year of 2020) under 20 thousand units. The growth of scooters over 50 cc was significant, with 151,153 vehicles registered, corresponding to an increase of 21.3%; the trend of motorcycles is even more robust, with 119,079 vehicles registered and an overall growth of 26.4% over 2020.
