COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
The motorcycles market will be analyzed taking motorcycle manufacturers as players. The key buyers will be taken as motorcycle dealers, and manufacturers of raw materials and components as the key suppliers.
Recent market decline will tend to discourage new entrants to the market, but intensify rivalry between the incumbents, most of which are large multinationals.
Buyer power is weakened by high level of product differentiation and customer loyalty with respect to dominating brands. Amongst the suppliers there are providers of commodity items such as metals, and their power is boosted due to their large size, consolidation of the industry and the fact that motorcycle manufacturers account for only a small fracture of their revenues. For new entrants to the market, setting up a production facility involves large capital outlay thus constituting significant entry barrier and high fixed cost. Furthermore the global tightening of emission standards is ramping up costs further as motorcycle re-designs are required. Such a trend can trigger the demand for newer, more economical engines, involving higher costs of R&D spending. Other means of transportation constitute the main substitutes within the market, and the threat of substitution is largely dependent upon the necessity of motorcycle use to the end-user. Due to high population density and relatively low average income, motorcycles and scooters may form a necessary means of transport in some regions of Brazil.
The rivalry is boosted by the presence of large, international incumbents: together the top four companies account for approximately 93% of the market’s share by volume, meaning the market is concentrated.
Motorcycle dealers within Brazil are typically franchised to the leading manufacturers, which reduces their independence and therefore buyer power. The leading Brazilian players Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki and Brasil & Movimento (manufacturer of Sundown Brand), account for approximately 93% of the market with respect to sales volume (with Honda alone holding c.a. 70%). This fact means that buyers within the Brazilian market face a relatively high concentration of players, indicating a lower level of choice. The high level of product differentiation weakens buyer power furthermore. It is also rather unusual for motorcycle dealers to integrate backwards into the manufacturers’ area due to the different nature of the business. These factors weaken the buyer power, which is assessed as moderate within the Brazilian motorcycle market.
Key inputs for a motorcycle manufacturer include aluminum and steel sheet, bar, castings, and forgings, and also finished components such as fuel injection systems, seats, batteries, and tires, that it is more cost-effective to source from specialist manufacturers than to produce in-house. Amongst the providers, there are large, multi-nationals with a strong presence within the global markets which boosts their power. To ensure timely delivery of such materials, market players often sign contracts with their providers, thus strengthening their power. The high importance of the raw materials to the manufacturers of motorcycles can enhance supplier power furthermore. To ensure timely delivery of such materials, market players often sign contracts with their providers, thus strengthening their power.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Typical suppliers are also likely to sell to a wide variety of manufacturing companies, with the motorcycles market only a minor component of their revenues, which strengthens suppliers' position. However, with minimal differentiation of raw materials there is little to distinguish between suppliers and manufacturers have low switching costs thus lowering the supplier power to some extent. Overall, supplier power within this market is moderate.
Entry to the Brazilian motorcycles market can be achieved by starting a new company, diversifying an existing company’s operations into motorcycles manufacturing or in case of foreign companies by beginning to export to the country. Newcomers are lured by a strong market growth promising a fair share of revenues. However, setting up a production facilities involves large capital outlay thus constituting significant entry barrier and high fixed costs. Additionally, leading motorcycle brands such as Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki or local Brasil & Movimento, enjoy an exceptionally high level of brand recognition, which is reflected in their high sales volumes and market dominance. Due to the existing strength of premium motorcycle brands it is difficult for new entrants to introduce their products into the market. However, sales are sensitive to price and it is possible for manufacturers to enter markets through the sale of budget vehicles. Furthermore the global tightening of emission standards is ramping up costs further as motorcycle re-designs are required. Such a trend can trigger the demand for newer, more economical engines, involving higher costs of R&D spending. Overall, the threat of new entrants with respect to the Brazilian motorcycles market is moderate.
Substitutes to the motorcycles market consist of other types of vehicles or means of transport. The threat of substitution with respect to the motorcycles market is dependent upon the necessity of motorcycle use to the end-user. In more developed areas motorcycles are seen as a luxury, rather than a car substitute, for example. They are more often used for leisure purposes than for commuting and in times of economic uncertainty demand will fall. In this case, the threat from substitutes is higher, as consumers are more likely to continue using other vehicles or public transport, than purchase a motorcycle which may be viewed as a luxury rather than a necessity.
In less developed regions motorcycles are often purchased as a car substitute, as they are cheaper to buy and run. Many end-users use motorcycles as their main form of transport, due to the high population density and relatively low average income in these countries. Motorcycles are also more suitable where a poorly developed road infrastructure may make use of larger vehicles problematic. This decreases the threat from substitutes as motorcycles are often a cheaper and more beneficial option for consumers.
Another alternative threatening motorcycle manufacturers is offered by used motorcycles. These may be sold privately, or by dealers that also offer new motorcycles, and will almost always be cheaper than a new vehicle of similar specification.
The Brazilian motorcycles market is concentrated, with top four players – namely Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki and Dafra holding about 93% of the market share by volume. Presence of such large multi-national companies, with exceptionally high assets, boosts the degree of rivalry; on the other hand, less players means less competitors for a share of market’s revenues.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Additionally, fixed cost and exit barriers are of significant meaning within this market and leaving it requires substantial divestment of highly specific assets. These factors enhance the rivalry. Most of the players try to diversify their business models through geographical expansion or have interests in a variety of industries manufacturing a range of goods including automobiles, watercraft, and industrial and farming machinery. Honda group for example, except form the geographical spread, diversifies its revenue streams by serving a number of end markets, including automobile business, motorcycle business, power products and financial services. Such diversification reduces the dependence upon the motorcycle market and eases rivalry therein. The Brazilian motorcycle market is currently exhibiting a decline although a recovery to a high, double digit level of growth is expected from 2010. This provides ample revenue growth for companies, thus reducing rivalry. There are also concerns regarding future demand due to the aging of the customers. Overall, rivalry within the Brazilian motorcycles market is assessed as moderate.
