Demon Powersports Takes the Reins of Segway’s Return to Canada in 2025

In recent years, the Canadian off-road vehicle market (ATVs, side-by-sides) has seen renewed interest in innovative brands pushing the limits of performance, style, and technology. Among them, Segway Powersports is making a strong comeback under the leadership of Demon Powersports. In a recent interview with Kenneth Yng from Demon, several points were discussed: the company’s background, challenges ahead, ambitions, and what this really means for powersport enthusiasts in Quebec and across Canada.

Background and Context: Demon Powersports

Demon Powersports is already well established in the performance parts sector for ATVs and side-by-sides. Before becoming the official distributor of Segway Powersports in Canada, Demon had proven itself in the aftermarket and technical support segments (axles, suspensions, etc.), giving it strong credibility with demanding users.

Segway Powersports: An Innovative Concept Brand

Segway Powersports was born under the Segway-Ninebot group, globally known for its mobility innovations (electric scooters, autonomous solutions, etc.). The company diversified into off-road vehicles (ATVs and side-by-sides) with powerful configurations, sophisticated suspensions, and more.

Segway Powersports’ Return to Canada

Segway is officially making its return to Canada under the direction of Demon Powersports. Demon thus becomes the official distributor of the American manufacturer for the entire country. This includes ATVs, side-by-sides, OEM parts, and after-sales services.

The manufacturer’s website already features the slogan “Segway Is Back. Powered by Demon Powersports.”

But what will this really bring Canadian users?

Advantages

Faster Access to Products

Segway machines will be available more quickly in Canada, without long import delays.

Local Support and Parts

Demon Powersports will handle OEM parts distribution, maintenance, and warranty, improving reliability and reducing maintenance costs for customers.

Expanded Dealer Network

Demon aims to strengthen and expand the dealer network to cover remote regions, which is critical in Quebec and Eastern provinces.

Powerful Models and New Launches

With lineups such as the Super Villain 2000 cc or the UT/AT, UTV, and SxS series, Segway is bringing back high-performance trail beasts.

Three Challenges for Segway in Canada

  1. Adapting to Canadian conditions: harsh winters, environmental standards, durability requirements.  
  1. After-sales service in remote areas: requires efficient logistics for parts and workshops.  
  1. Pricing and competition: Segway must position itself to compete with established brands like Can-Am, Polaris, and CFMOTO in both pricing and reliability.  

Highlights from the Interview with Kenneth Ng

In my interview with Kenneth Ng, I noted a few key takeaways important for ATV riders.

Demon Is Not a “Newcomer”

The company has long worked with performance enthusiasts, which makes the transition to full distribution of Segway Powersports machines easier.

A Strong Point Mentioned: Customer Service

Ensuring that every Segway owner in Canada will have access to a good service centre, readily available parts, and effective support.

A Few Words on the Lineups

Kenneth discusses ATVs, side-by-sides, and the unique character of high-end models like the Super Villain. He emphasizes properly setting expectations: performance, comfort, and durability.

Analysis and Outlook

Segway Powersports is returning at the right time. The Canadian market is ready for vehicles that combine power, modern technology, and premium user experience. Consumers are increasingly informed and demanding when it comes to reliability, after-sales service, parts, and more. Demon seems to have understood this well.

Their strategy appears to include the following:

  • Ensure strong territorial coverage (dealers, workshops)  
  • Maintain quality of support and parts  
  • Manage pricing to remain competitive  
  • Increase brand awareness: test rides, events, local marketing  

Conclusion

Segway Powersports’ relaunch in Canada under Demon Powersports marks an important step in the off-road vehicle industry. While challenges are numerous, the opportunities are just as significant. For Quebec and Canadian enthusiasts, this means more choices, more local support, and machines that—properly maintained—can truly push the limits.

In my view, Demon Powersports has things well under control, and Segway Powersports will position itself advantageously in the Canadian industry in the coming years.
