QJMotor expands presence in the US with new models

Chinese brand QJMotor continues to expand its motorcycle range in the North American market, introducing new models that cover different segments, from roadsters and sportbikes to cruisers and adventure bikes. With Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certification, these new machines are about to arrive at dealerships in the United States.

Among the most notable newcomers is the arrival of QJMotor’s first four-cylinder models in the US. The SRK600 roadster and SRK600RC sportbike, both equipped with a 600cc inline four-cylinder engine, promise to offer a combination of performance and style. Additionally, the SRV600V cruiser, equipped with a V4 engine, marks a new approach by the brand in this segment.

The 600cc engine in these models has a history dating back more than two decades, even before Qianjiang, QJMotor’s parent company, acquired Benelli. Originally designed for the Benelli Quattro, this engine has evolved over the years and is now updated to meet the latest Euro 5 emission standards. According to EPA records, the powerplant delivers 87 hp at 11,500 rpm, a higher value than the 80 hp announced for the European version. The SRK600 also features a trellis frame and Brembo radial brakes, ensuring a solid performance package.

Another highlight is the SVT650 adventurer, a 645cc V-twin model that is still awaiting EPA approval, but already appears on QJMotor’s US website. In the adventure segment, the brand also reinforces its offering with the SRT800SX, an evolution of the SRT750X, which offers 91 hp from its 799cc parallel-twin engine.

The brand also invests in the cruiser segment, with the SRV350VS, a 343cc V-twin model with 32 hp, inspired by Harley-Davidson aesthetics, and the SRV550ST, which features a 554cc parallel-twin engine with 55 hp. Both have already received EPA certification for the American market.

Finally, QJMotor is also betting on the maxiscooter segment with the Fort 250 and Fort 350 models, equipped with 250cc and 350cc engines, respectively, and CVT automatic transmission.

Information on prices and launch dates has not yet been revealed, but it is clear that QJMotor is determined to significantly expand its presence in the North American market.
