EICMA 2026 Opens at Fiera Milano Rho With Record-Breaking Scale

The 83rd edition of the International Cycle and Motorcycle Exhibition (EICMA) is set to occupy 10 exhibition pavilions spanning over 300,000 square meters at Fiera Milano Rho, featuring 754 exhibitors and 2,120 brands from 52 countries, gazzetta.it reported. Running under the promotional campaign claim “Always the first time. Ogni anno, una scoperta,” the event begins with two press and industry days on November 3 before opening to the general public from November 5 to November 8, operating daily from 9:30 AM to 6:30 PM.

As Il Sole 24 ORE noted, this year’s massive footprint incorporates not just traditional indoor displays of motorcycles, scooters, and accessories, but also extensive outdoor live action and racing demonstrations at the MotoLive area. Major manufacturers from Europe and Asia are bringing highly anticipated global debuts, targeting shifting consumer demands across commuter segments, adventure touring, and urban mobility.

Italian and European heavyweights are staking out prominent spaces across the Rho Fiera grounds. Aprilia is stationed in Pavilion 9 at the Piaggio group’s stand E76.

Taiwanese Innovation and Global Brands Target Urban Mobility

Asian manufacturers are establishing a commanding footprint in Milan, highlighted by a dedicated collective presence at the Taiwan Flagship Showcase in Pavilion 22 (Stand S20), Moto.it reported. Driven by strong sales figures where scooters account for nearly six out of ten vehicle registrations in the Italian market during the first nine months of the year, brands like Kymco are introducing vehicles designed to bridge daily practicality and outdoor exploration.

Kymco’s Pavilion 11 stand (E04) features the new CV-X45 crossover scooter, which pairs a 427 cc single-cylinder engine producing 34 horsepower with an adventure-styled chassis. Additional technological contributions from Taiwan featured at the fair include ADATA Power’s commercial e-trikes and advanced battery supply-chain tracking, alongside Orange Electronic’s internal tire-pressure monitoring sensors, providing a comprehensive look at how digital connectivity and electrification are reshaping the global two-wheeler sector.
