Energica Returns After Bankruptcy with Production Moving to Asia

Energica Resumes Operations Under New Ownership With Singapore Acquisition

Energica, the Italian electric motorcycle brand that entered bankruptcy proceedings in 2024, has officially returned to the market following its acquisition by Singapore-based Energica Pte. Ltd., which is backed by international private investors, kursors.lv reported. The new ownership structure introduces significant shifts in the company’s operational model designed to lower vehicle pricing by roughly 20 percent compared to legacy models.

Production Relocation to Asia and Pricing Reductions

Manufacturing operations are moving to Asia to curb long-term expenses. Company leadership determined that maintaining low-volume assembly inside high-cost European markets was financially unsustainable. This manufacturing transition mirrors steps taken by industry competitors like Zero Motorcycles. Despite the shift in assembly location, engineering development, styling, and quality control remain anchored in Italy under the direction of long-serving technical director Giampiero Testoni and designer Paolo Imeni.

Model Lineup Restoration and Component Upgrades

The touring enduro model Energica Experia will restart production first, followed by the gradual revival of the Ego, Eva Ribelle, and EsseEsse9 lines. Initial builds will utilize existing platforms to accelerate delivery times. Subsequent engineering updates include new battery packs, enhanced efficiency, extended ranges per charge, and improved mechanical reliability. Spare parts delivery and customer service support have already resumed across multiple international territories, alongside plans to rebuild dealer networks in Europe, the United States, and Australia.
