Engineer Ampelio Macchi, formerly with Cagiva and Aprilia, is driving the resurgance of the SWM brand.  Funding for the company has come from China via the entity Shineray.
SWM will keep manufacturing in Italy. Apparently, some of its engines will be acquired from the old Husqvarna engines replaced by KTM units following the acquisition by Peirer.

The SWM Silver Vase scrambler   has a six-speed transmission. Although air-cooled, these engines do feature fuel injection and an oil cooler. the rear brakes will be drum for a vintage look.
