FIRST LOOK: 2025 GASGAS ENDURO RANGE

GASGAS is gearing up for 2025 with the introduction of the all-new EC125, expanding its enduro line-up to seven bikes, available in limited quantities from September 2024 at GASGAS Australia dealers. The EC125, built from the MC125, features enduro-specific components like a six-speed transmission, stator, map select switch, and an 18” rear wheel, ensuring high-revving fun.

The existing models – EC250, EC300, EC250F, EC350F, EC450F, and EC500F – have been updated for enhanced performance, durability, and rider experience. Key improvements include a lighter linkage for better shock performance, a stronger rear brake caliper, and a revised swingarm for chain slider durability. New all-red bodywork with vibrant graphics distinguishes the 2025 models.

The 2025 line-up offers three 2-strokes (EC125, EC250, EC300) and four 4-strokes (EC250F, EC350F, EC450F, EC500F), catering to both casual weekend riders and serious racers. GASGAS ensures there’s a perfect bike for every enduro enthusiast in their 2025 collection.

The 2025 GASGAS range will not be available in New Zealand due to decreased production. Given the refinements to the range, rather than a ground breaking upgrade from the 2024 range and sufficient stock of the 2024 models in the country, a strategic decision was made to forgo the 2025 lineup in NZ.
