Who actually makes Nitro Motorsport?

What the Nitro Motorsport filings say about the engines

Every Nitro Motorsport filing on record is carburetted — 3 certificate rows, 2007, and not one fuel-injected engine among them.

The engine codes on Nitro Motorsport's test vehicles —just one across the filings — are led by 156FMI-2. The code is stamped on the crankcase and is a better search term than the badge.

All 3 filings are 50-state certifications, so every one of these machines was certified for sale in California.

Rated power across the range runs from 5.5 kW to 11 kW (about 7 to 15 hp).

The vehicle builders named are Yongkang Wangli Hardware Manufactory Co., Ltd., Chongqing Astronautic Bashan Motorcycle Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and Zhejiang Xmoto Co., Ltd. — the chassis and the engine do not always share a source.

Each figure is read straight off the EPA certificate rows; the per-family pages below carry the full breakdown for every engine family.
