Paris – September 12, 2026 -- French enduro champion Mathias Bellino is starting a new chapter in off-road riding after Segway Powersports gave him a Super Villain SX20T side-by-side vehicle. The partnership gives Bellino a new way to stay close to the terrain that shaped his motorsports career.
Bellino won the junior enduro world championship title in 2012 and the Enduro E3 world championship in 2015. He was also part of the French national team that won the ISDE Junior World Trophy for three consecutive years, from 2011 to 2013.
Bellino grew up in a motorcycle family and began riding at age four.
He progressed through motocross before competing at the highest level in enduro racing.
A 2018 crash in Argentina ended Bellino's professional racing career.
In August 2018, during his first cross-country rally, the Desafío Ruta 40 in Argentina, Bellino suffered severe spinal injuries in a crash. At the time, he was preparing to compete in the Dakar Rally. The accident ended his professional racing career but not his connection to motorsports. He later returned to the EnduroGP paddock as team manager for Honda ORC, continuing to find ways to stay active in the off-road community.
The Super Villain SX20T lets Bellino experience off-road terrain in a new way.
The side-by-side vehicle allows him to focus on what originally drew him to the sport: being outdoors, reading terrain, and sharing the experience with others. For Bellino, this new phase is not about recreating the past but about moving forward on his own terms. Segway Powersports built the collaboration around a shared passion for exploration and what it calls a "Fear No Place" spirit.
