The journey to Dakar starts now.
We are proud to inform you that on Wednesday 8th we will announce Joyride Race Service as the official ZXMOTO Factory Team for our Dakar Rally project. Joining us on this journey is Tobias Ebster, one of rally raid’s most promising talents, who will take on the world’s toughest rally aboard the ZXMOTO 450 Rally.
At ZXMOTO, performance, product quality and reliability are forged through racing, the passion for motorcycles and racing is our DNA. There is no better environment to develop, test and validate our motorcycles than the most demanding rally on the planet. Every kilometre raced, every challenge overcome and every lesson learned will contribute to making our motorcycles even better for customers around the world.
Our rally racing campaign will begin at the Rallye du Maroc, taking place from 27 September to 4 October, before heading to the Dakar Rally, held from 1 January to 15 January.
As part of our off-road program, we are also pleased to confirm that ZXMOTO will compete in the 2027 MXGP World Championship with the ZXMOTO 450 MX.
At the same time, our FIM Supersport World Championship (WorldSSP) programme with the ZXMOTO 820RR continues to demonstrate the competitiveness of our onroad platform. With four rounds remaining in our debut season, we currently hold second place in the Riders’ Championship, second in the Teams’ Championship, and third in the Manufacturers’ Championship. These results reinforce our commitment to developing world class motorcycles through the highest and most demanding level of racing, both on and off the road.
