MotoE World Championship to End in 2026

Posted : 12 September 2025

The International Motorcycling Federation (FIM) and MotoGP have announced that the MotoE World Championship will be discontinued after the 2025 season, citing a lack of fan interest and limited progress in electric motorcycle development. The decision was confirmed in a joint statement released on Thursday.

 

MotoE was launched in 2019 with high expectations, starting with four rounds and six races before expanding to 16 races across eight rounds. However, the series has since contracted to just seven events in Europe for 2025, reflecting waning popularity. The short race format, often fewer than 10 laps, and lap times similar to Moto3 bikes failed to capture a consistent audience.

 

FIM President Jorge Viegas acknowledged that despite efforts to promote the category alongside MotoGP rights holders Dorna Sports, MotoE did not meet its objectives. He also noted that the broader motorcycle industry is currently prioritizing cleaner innovations through high-efficiency combustion engines and non-fossil fuels rather than fully electric performance bikes.

 

Since 2023, Ducati has served as the sole bike supplier for MotoE, replacing Energica. While MotoE is being shelved, MotoGP and the FIM emphasized that they will continue monitoring technological trends and could revisit electric racing in the future if conditions improve.

 

Dorna Sports CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta added that the decision reflects both market realities and fan feedback: “As we strive for innovation, we must also listen to our audience. Together with the FIM, we believe now is the right time to put MotoE on hold.”

 

The 2025 MotoE season still has two races remaining, with Mattia Casadei of LCR and Lorenzo Baldassarri of Dynavolt Intact tied at the top of the standings on 132 points. Spanish rider Jordi Torres, who won back-to-back titles in 2020 and 2021, remains the most successful competitor in the championship’s short history.
