A.11 kW (15 hp)
B.25 kW (34 hp)
C.35 kW (48 hp)
D.50 kW (68 hp)
Explanation: Under Hungarian and EU driving licence regulations (24/2005. GKM decree), Category A2 covers medium motorcycles with a maximum engine power output not exceeding 35 kW (approximately 48 horsepower).

A.0.1 kW/kg
B.0.15 kW/kg
C.0.2 kW/kg

Hungary KRESZ A2: Suggested Study Strategy

1Master the scoring framework: Ten of the 55 questions carry 3 points each. Missing four 3-point questions loses 12 points, which exceeds the 10-point error allowance.
2Understand the three-part A2 technical boundary: maximum power of 35 kW, maximum power-to-weight ratio of 0.2 kW/kg, and parent vehicle power not exceeding 70 kW. All three conditions must be satisfied simultaneously.
3Know progressive access rules: Holding Category A1 for 2 years provides an accelerated transition path to A2, just as holding A2 for 2 years allows access to Category A at age 20 instead of the direct access age of 24.
4Review high-speed dynamics: At higher rural and motorway speeds, countersteering input and gyroscopic forces become critical; know how braking in a bend causes the motorcycle to stand upright and widen its trajectory.
5Remember Hungarian-specific road rules: During daylight motorcycles use dipped beam, riders must follow the zero-alcohol rule, and filtering past stationary vehicles is permitted only under the KRESZ conditions and with adequate clearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What motorcycles can I ride with a Hungarian Category A2 driving licence?

A Category A2 licence entitles you to ride medium motorcycles with a maximum engine power output not exceeding 35 kW, a power-to-weight ratio not exceeding 0.2 kW/kg, and not derived from a vehicle of more than double its engine power (maximum 70 kW parent vehicle). It also covers all Category A1 and Category AM vehicles.

What is the format and passing score of the Category A2 KRESZ theory exam?

The official KAV Category A2 theory exam is a computer-based test of 55 multiple-choice questions to be completed in 55 minutes. The total score is 75 points (forty-five 1-point questions and ten 3-point questions). The passing threshold is 65 points, allowing a maximum of 10 error points.

What are the age requirements for Category A2 in Hungary?

Candidates may enroll in the Category A2 training course at age 17 years and 6 months, take the KAV computer theory examination at age 17 years and 9 months, and take the practical driving test once they reach age 18.

How does progressive access work between Category A1 and Category A2?

If an applicant has held a valid Category A1 driving licence for at least 2 years, they can upgrade to Category A2 through an abbreviated training course with reduced theoretical instruction hours and fewer required practical driving hours before taking the practical examination.

What is the rule regarding derivation from a parent vehicle for Category A2?

Under EU and Hungarian driving licence rules, a restricted A2 motorcycle must not be derived from a parent model that originally produced more than double its power output (i.e. more than 70 kW). Restricting a motorcycle that produces 80 kW down to 35 kW is not legally permitted for Category A2.

What are the general motorcycle speed limits in Hungary?

Motorcycles without a trailer are subject to standard passenger vehicle speed limits: 50 km/h in built-up areas, 90 km/h outside built-up areas on standard roads, 110 km/h on express roads, and 130 km/h on motorways, provided road, weather, and traffic conditions allow.

How much is the KAV Category A2 theory exam fee?

Under the 2026 KAV fee table, the computer theory examination fee for Category A2 is HUF 12,700.
