The 2026 AMA Motocross Championship season was the 55th AMA Motocross National Championship season, the premier motocross series in USA.
Jett Lawrence was the defending champion in the 450 class, after winning his fourth overall outdoor title in 2025. The Lawrence brothers would win all but two races across the season, with Hunter Lawrence narrowly coming out on top to win his first outdoor title in the 450 class.
In the 250 class, Haiden Deegan was the defending champion. However, he did not defend his title due to moving into the 450 class. New Zealander Cole Davies would succeed Deegan as champion, winning the title in his first full outdoor season in America.
The championship formed the second part of the 2026 SuperMotocross World Championship season.
