On April 30, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer MV Agusta officially launched its brand in the Philippines. Or, strictly speaking, relaunched it, as the company apparently had been in our market previously, but that it is reentering our territory in a big way this time around. Present at the event was Judah Sangaran, MV Agusta’s Far East sales head.
“It brings me great joy to be here for the MV Agusta brand launch in the Philippines,” Sangaran said. “After quite a number of years, we have finally arrived with a beautiful showroom in Caloocan. An exclusive MV Agusta store will be opened by July this year.”
During the event, the prevailing theme was “Motorcycle Art.” We think we now know why. MV Agusta motorcycles are expensive—as any Italian set of wheels is expected to be—and the not-so-subliminal message there is that the firm’s products are not just motorcycles. They’re also art. As such, they command admission fees that only lucky bastards wealthy people will be able to afford.
And that’s part of the MV Agusta allure. It’s highly desirable, but it’s not for everyone. Below are the brand’s motorbikes and their Philippine-market prices. See if you can find one within your budget.
