The 13th China International Motorcycle Trade Exhibition (CIMAMotor 2014) was held in the National Expo Center, Chongqing municipality, from November 14-17.
CIMAMotor has been held annually since 2002, and has become the world's largest and the most important event for commuter motorcycles after 12 years of continuous development. The output and sales of Chinese motorcycles, accounting for over 50 percent of the world, has led the world for many consecutive years.
The export of motorcycles has also led the world for many consecutive years. In China, over 99 percent of motorcycles are used for commuting. Exported motorcycles mainly go to third world countries.

?Exhibitors from China focused on demonstrating the core competitiveness of Chinese motorcycles, and the displayed products included motorcycles, motorcycle parts, motorcycle cultural products, general fuel engines, motorcycle maintenance products, motorcycle technology and service products.
The exhibition area reached 60,000 square meters, and is expected to attract more than 130,000 visitors. Themed “new standards, new technologies, new products", apart from displaying motorcycle products and the most cutting-edge technology, a motorcycle experience interactive area was set up in the outdoor venue where motorcycle drivers can sharpen their driving skills.
