Company founder and CEO Anton Wass emphasizes in the video: “Our ambition goes far beyond motocross. What we have planned is an enormous challenge for us. Our goal is to become one of the largest motorcycle manufacturers in the world. We want to produce and sell millions of motorcycles per year.”
New models: Adventure, Sport, and Supermoto
Älg – Adventure bike for Europe
The new Älg adventure model is designed specifically for the European market. In terms of performance, Stark classifies the model in the 800 cc category, with the aim of achieving 50 percent more power than current comparable combustion engines. At the same time, the weight is to be reduced and the charging time “no longer than it takes to drink a cup of coffee.”
Visually, the blurred image of the motorcycle in the video is reminiscent of models such as the Yamaha Ténéré 700. No details on exact performance or range have been released yet, but according to Wass, the combination of performance, weight, and charging time should ensure that the model could become the best-selling adventure bike worldwide.
Lo – Sporty electric motorcycle with a focus on road use
The second model announced is called Lo, which means “lynx” in Swedish. Only a compact front end with a sporty silhouette is shown. The statements in the video suggest that it is more of a sporty road motorcycle than a pure electric super sports model.
Stark is also pursuing the same philosophy with this model: more power, less weight, faster charging. Wass also emphasizes: “Both models are designed to offer more range than you have energy to ride.”
SM – Supermoto based on the Varg
A supermoto version of the Stark Varg, which will be marketed under the abbreviation SM, is already planned for this year. A pre-production model that is almost ready for series production was on display. This is the first road version based on the existing Varg platform, with which Stark Future has so far been exclusively represented in the off-road sector.
Production and expansion
Despite the company’s relatively short history – the first Varg was only unveiled at the end of 2021 – Stark Future now employs around 400 people. In the second quarter of 2025, almost 5,000 units were manufactured. Assembly is currently carried out entirely at the 20,000-square-meter production facility near Barcelona, which is designed for a maximum annual capacity of 150,000 motorcycles.
However, for upcoming models, including those to be positioned on the Asian market, production is planned directly in the target regions. The aim is to be able to serve local markets more quickly and cost-effectively.
Finances and investments
The company’s ambitious plans are backed by solid financial figures. In the second quarter of 2025, Stark generated revenue of €47 million (approx. $50.3 million) and EBITDA of €4.5 million (approx. $4.82 million).
In addition, more than €100 million (approx. US$107 million) in new capital was raised in a recent financing round, including investors from the MotoGP environment and existing shareholders. In 2022, Eicher Motors, the parent company of Royal Enfield, had already invested €50 million (approx. US$53.5 million) in Stark. This collaboration could also influence the development of the Älg adventure model, especially since Royal Enfield is also working on an electric version of the Himalayan.
Future platforms and global goals
With the planned Gimli platform, Stark also wants to serve the Asian market in the future. The goal is to develop “the world’s best-selling motorcycle platform.” The platform will be positioned in the lower price segment, but will outperform all comparable combustion engine models in the 100 to 500 cm³ range in terms of power and efficiency.
In addition, a freeride motorcycle and an electric ATV for off-road use are in the planning stages.
