Italy’s Fantic Motor has been making moves over the past few years. In 2021 alone, the brand acquired Motori Minarelli from Yamaha, released new enduro models, and announced its 2022 Dakar Rally campaign with Franco Picco. Of course, the firm’s stalwart Caballero line received updates all the while, but the firm also dabbled in beginner electric scooters with the TX2 and rally machines with the XEF 450 Rally.
Thanks to Fantic’s enterprising spirit, it closed 2021 with 95-percent growth over 2020 and 130-percent growth when compared to 2019. That year, Fantic’s reported revenue was only €40.2M (~$45.2M USD) and the company brought in €47.7M (~$53.6M USD) in 2020. In 2021, however, Fantic recorded a staggering €156M (~$175.5M USD) in revenue. That marks the seventh consecutive year of growth for the reemerging Italian marque.
