RGNT returns following asset acquisition, Street Classic production to resume
Earlier this year, THE PACK reported on the bankruptcy of Swedish electric motorcycle manufacturer RGNT. Shortly after publication, CEO Jonathan Åström informed us that discussions were underway to reboot the brand. With respect for the brand and in the interest of the electric motorcycle industry, we agreed on the request to pause this publication while efforts to secure new backing were ongoing. With the relaunch now formally confirmed, RGNT is once again restarting operations under a new entity formed by its existing team.
RGNT reboots once again following asset acquisition
Swedish electric motorcycle manufacturer RGNT is resuming operations after its core assets were acquired by a new entity formed by the existing team. The move follows the January 20, 2026 bankruptcy filing of RGNT Reborn AB, which the company says was primarily triggered by a serious breach of contract by a former logistics partner that disrupted operations and cash flow.
According to CEO Jonathan Åström, the acquisition includes RGNT’s intellectual property, tooling, remaining inventory and the full team behind the brand. The company states that this structure ensures business continuity, with the same design philosophy and production approach remaining in place.
Warranties honoured, orders secured
RGNT confirmed that all existing warranties on its Turbo models will remain valid and honoured without interruption. Open orders for the Street Classic are secured and will be fulfilled according to the original schedule.
The company also noted that approximately 30 units of the RGNT Turbo remain available for sale in 2026. Once this inventory is sold out, the focus will shift fully to production and customer deliveries of the Street Classic, which are scheduled to begin in Q4 2026.
Focus on Street Classic for 2026
The remainder of 2026 will be dedicated to finalising development, certification, homologation and production ramp-up of the Street Classic, positioned as RGNT’s flagship model combining Scandinavian design with modern electric performance.
In a statement, Åström said the company is “deeply thankful for the unwavering support from our community, dealers, suppliers and customers throughout this transition.”
The relaunch marks yet another chapter for the Gothenburg-based electric motorcycle maker, which has now undergone restructuring more than once as it navigates the challenging landscape of premium electric two-wheeler manufacturing.
