Husqvarna Motorcycles reveals 2026 motocross and cross country line-ups

The full-size line-up comprises the most popular models from recent years – the TC 125 and TC 250 2-strokes, and the FC 250 and FC 450 4-strokes. All four machines are designed to perform on track while an extensive list of race-tested components highlights their premium build specification. Updates for 2026 include a new fuel line protector, radiator cap, and distinctive, Swedish-inspired graphics.

For 2-stroke enthusiasts, the TC 125 and TC 250 continue to set the standard in their respective classes. Both models are at the cutting edge of development, utilising Throttle Body Injection (TBI) to deliver a smooth and consistent power delivery at all times. Together with a perfectly balanced chassis, the latest WP suspension, and equipped with carefully chosen premium components as standard, the TC 125 and TC 250 deliver outstanding performance.

With the 2024 MX2 Motocross World Championship title to its name, the overall performance of the FC 250 is undisputed. The high-revving machine is powered by a proven DOHC engine, with its position inside the chromium molybdenumframe calculated to ensure confidence-inspiring handling. Multiple electronic rider aids allow riders to refine how the FC 250 performs, with launch and traction control, a quickshifter, and a choice of engine maps allowing for a customised riding experience. The FC 450 features the same advanced technology, with its capabilities recently shown in the 2025 AMA Supercross Championship where Malcolm Stewart made his first-ever Main Event victory.

For 2026, the cross-country TX 300 sets the benchmark for 2-stroke performance and will be available in limited numbers in both Australia and New Zealand. Stable at high speed yet nimble in technical terrain, it remains renowned for its exceptional rideability.  New Dunlop AT82 tyres ensure maximum traction on a variety of surfaces, while new graphics, blue front number plate, threaded radiator cap and fuel line protector round out the changes for the new model year. The TX 300 wiring harness has also been rerouted to improve durability.

All three minicycles – the TC 50, TC 65, and TC 85 – utilise the latest 2-stroke technology. For 2026, all three models receive several technical updates, with shared revisions including a new triple clamp design and threaded radiator cap.

For many youngsters, the popular TC 50 will be their first true motocross machine, and it is built to the same high standard as the rest of the range. A new air cartridge inside the WP forks, combined with low-friction seals, improve damping for a heightened level of control. Further updates include a new exhaust gasket made of special material improving durability and quality. Plus, with easily adjustable ergonomics, the TC 50 can be altered in height as riders grow in size and confidence.

The TC 65 offers similar adjustability and benefits from a new exhaust gasket and a redesigned exhaust valve. In addition, the larger displacement model features a lightweight hydraulic clutch and a close-ratio 6-speed gearbox that features smooth gear changes.

The TC 85 completes the range. Available with two different wheel size options to suit various rider heights, this popular model enters the second year of its current generation. With an engine delivering best-in-class performance and a stable chassis, the TC 85 continues to set the standard in the competitive 85 cc category. In addition to the shared revisions found across the minicycle range, a new, adjustable rear brake pedal offers improved control.
