About Norton Motorcycles

Founded in 1898 by James Lansdowne Norton, Norton Motorcycles is an iconic British motorcycle brand renowned for its legacy of performance, craftsmanship, and innovation. For over 125 years, Norton has set benchmarks in motorcycle design, engineering, and racing excellence.

In April 2020, Norton entered an exciting new chapter when it was acquired by TVS Motor Company, a global leader in two-wheeler manufacturing. This partnership marked the resurgence of Norton, combining its British heritage with world-class resources and innovation.

In 2021, Norton unveiled its state-of-the-art global headquarters in Solihull, West Midlands. The facility represents the brand’s commitment to modern luxury, boasting cutting-edge manufacturing capabilities, a design centre, and a research & development hub that drive Norton’s future forward.

Company size

Norton is firmly focused on innovation and expansion, particularly in the electric motorcycle sector. The company’s bold strategy includes projects like Zero Emission Norton, which aim to accelerate the UK’s shift towards net-zero mobility. Backed by funding from the Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC), Norton is developing world-class EV motorcycles that combine luxury, performance, and sustainability.

As of 2024, Norton Motorcycles has continued to grow significantly, supported by its parent company, TVS Motors, which employs over 5,000 people globally.
