Formula Moto The 10 motorcycles most preferred by Spaniards during vacation season
This is how the motorcycle market is doing in Spain: it's growing. These are the best-selling motorcycles this August
The month of August confirms the year's trend. It ends with a 10.5% increase in sales, in a year whose average growth is now 10%.
Two 125 cc scooters continue to lead the market, as has been the case in recent years, and show how the 125 scooter remains the best current mobility solution.
In first place in the ranking is still the great leader of the year, the Yamaha NMAX 125, an agile and efficient urban scooter.
Right behind is the Honda PCX 125, another unquestionable benchmark in the segment, now already in its fifth generation presented this year.
In third place on the podium is the Voge 900 DSX. It's the first "large" motorcycle in the ranking. It's a good example of how the arrival of new Chinese brands is transforming the motorcycle landscape in Spain.
In addition, in fifth place is the Zontes 368 G, making it the first scooter with a displacement higher than 125 in the list.
1-Yamaha NMAX 125
Yamaha's small urban bestseller stands out for its well-balanced technical package. Its water-cooled Blue-Core engine delivers 12.2 hp at 8,000 rpm, paired with a curb weight of 291 lbs. (132 kg).
In its latest evolution, the Start&Stop system and ABS-assisted brakes were included as standard. This has made it one of the favorites among Spaniards, as it has shown throughout this year.
Two versions, Standard and Tech Max, starting at €3,589 for the most affordable one.
2-Honda PCX 125
Honda's urban benchmark scooter keeps its position with confidence. It achieves this thanks to its water-cooled eSP+ engine, which delivers 12.5 hp at 8,750 rpm, with a curb weight of 293 lbs. (133 kg).
It also stands out for its exceptional efficiency: it consumes only 112 mpg (2.1 l/100 km), a key figure for its long range.
It loses ground throughout the year compared to its main rival, which seems somewhat better equipped, but it makes up for it with agility and smoothness that are hard to match. Also two versions, Standard and DX, starting at €3,499.
3-Voge 900 DSX
Voge's large trail is the trendiest motorcycle, without a doubt, in 2025. It features a twin-cylinder 54.6 cu in. (895 cc) engine that delivers 95 hp at 8,250 rpm, with a dry weight of 474 lbs. (215 kg).
With a version for the A2 license and a price that remains below €10,000 and plenty of equipment, it's a very attractive option for many users, as it's proving.
It now includes a six-axis IMU that allows cornering ABS function and other aids.
It features traction control, blind spot radar, and brake warning, and is completed with a KYB adjustable fork, Brembo brakes, quick shifter, and 7" TFT display with connectivity.

This scooter impresses with its 38.8 hp and 29.5 lb-ft (40 Nm) of torque for its 403 lbs. (183 kg) dry weight. This makes it, on paper, the most powerful in its category.

7-Honda SH 125 Scoopy
It seems that Honda has been doomed this year to chase models from its great rival. The seventh in this "Top Ten" is another classic in the sales lists, in this case for many years: the Honda SH 125.
True high-wheel, it features two 16" wheels and a flat floor, as it always has. The 2025 SH is a scooter with a eSP+ engine (like the PCX) and minimal consumption. It adds Full LED lighting and a "smart" top box that works with the scooter's proximity key.
