Chongqing-How does a motorcycle make its way from Chongqing to the world?

From the “Red Rooster” of 1979 to a Chongqing-built racing bike reaching the top of the global racing stage in 2026; from relying on low-cost manufacturing and OEM exports to building a “one-hour motorcycle industry circle” and moving upmarket through electrification and smart technologies, Chongqing’s motorcycle industry has traveled a road of nearly half a century — and is now embarking on a new odyssey.

The documentary The Second Odyssey of the World’s Motorcycle Capital is now online. Follow Chongqing’s motorcycle makers as they reshape their industrial foundation, shift gears for a breakthrough, and set out once again for global markets.
