While the announcement also covers New Zealand, no local launch timing has yet been confirmed as the company focuses on establishing its Australian dealer network first.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20250513-DS800X-Rally-Studio-1080x1080.jpg\" alt=\"Yellow and black adventure motorcycle seen from the front-left, with windshield and rugged off-road tires\" class=\"wp-image-33741\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t2026 Voge DS800X Rally<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The appointment is significant for Kiwi riders, bringing two of China\u2019s fastest-growing premium motorcycle manufacturers a step closer to local showrooms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between them, QJMOTOR and VOGE are expected to offer an initial range of 16 motorcycles, covering roadster, sports, adventure and cruiser segments, with a mix of learner-approved and full-power models.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the headline models earmarked for Australia are the QJMOTOR SRK 800 RR supersport, SRV 600 V2 cruiser and SRT 450 RX adventure bike, while VOGE\u2019s launch range will include the DS800X Rally, DS900X, RR660S and CU625 cruiser.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20250804-SRT-450-RX-1080x720.jpg\" alt=\"Red adventure motorcycle shown in side profile with a tall windshield and gold-rimmed wheels on a white background.\" class=\"wp-image-33742\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t2026 QJMotor SRT 450 RX<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The arrival of both brands continues the rapid expansion of Chinese manufacturers into the Australasian market. In recent years, brands including CFMOTO, Kove and Moto Morini have established strong local followings by offering high levels of equipment and competitive pricing, and QJMOTOR and VOGE are expected to target a similar space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">QJMOTOR enters the market with growing international racing credentials, fielding factory teams in both the FIM Supersport World Championship and Moto2 World Championship. Meanwhile, VOGE is the premium motorcycle division of Loncin Motor, the long-time manufacturing partner for BMW Motorrad. QJMOTOR is backed by automotive giant Geely Holding Group, whose portfolio includes Volvo, Lotus and Polestar.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese are globally recognised manufacturers with substantial investment in engineering, product development and manufacturing, and we are looking forward to introducing both brands to Australia and New Zealand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nexa Auto Imports Managing Director Clint Davis said both brands represented a major opportunity for the region.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cQJMOTOR and VOGE represent an exciting opportunity for Australian riders and motorcycle dealers alike.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20251017-QJMOTOR-Moto2-Rider-Ivan-Ortola-1080x720.jpg\" alt=\"Motorcycle racer in red and black gear leaning into a high-speed turn on a race track, helmet bright orange and sponsor logos visible on the bike and suit.\" class=\"wp-image-33744\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>\t\tQJMotor compete in both the FIM Supersport World Championship and Moto2 World Championship.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThese are globally recognised manufacturers with substantial investment in engineering, product development and manufacturing, and we are looking forward to introducing both brands to Australia and New Zealand.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dealer applications are already open in Australia ahead of the October launch, with the company investing heavily in parts distribution, warranty support, technical training and dealer development. Pricing, specifications and dealer locations are expected to be announced closer to launch. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Kiwi riders may have to wait a little longer, today\u2019s announcement confirms that both QJMOTOR and VOGE are officially on their way to New Zealand. Exactly when the first bikes land here will likely depend on how quickly Nexa completes its Australian rollout and establishes a local dealer network.<\/p>\n<p><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brm.co.nz\/newsletter-sign-up\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"a2t-link\" aria-label=\"Sena-helmet-homepage\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Sena-helmet-homepage.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1040\" height=\"140\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"720\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/20250917-SRV600-V2-Studio-1080x720.jpg\" alt=\"Side view of a silver and black cruiser motorcycle, showing the V-twin engine, exhaust, and front headlight.\" class=\"wp-image-33743\"  \/><\/p>\n<p>\t\t2026 QJMotor SRV600 V-twin<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"QJMOTOR and VOGE are officially heading to New Zealand under newly appointed distributor Nexa Auto Imports.
