Focus on the business, not the platform
You are running a business, not a social media fan page. If having ten pages brings in more test ride signups than one, then you should have ten. If having fifty pages brings in even more, then fifty is your number. The actual count is irrelevant; the impact on your bottom line is all that matters. Do not get distracted by what 'everyone else' is doing. Do what works for your growth goals and keeps your customer acquisition costs at a sustainable level.
Scaling with efficiency in mind
You need to be able to scale without increasing your complexity. If managing multiple accounts is taking up all your time, you are doing it wrong. Use a distribution system that automates the work so you don't have to hire more people. You want a setup that can grow as your brand grows, without becoming a burden on your team or your bank account. Keep your operations lean and your focus on the activities that lead directly to sales.
The role of a managed content network
This is where a managed content network makes sense. A managed content network is a set of many brand-owned Instagram pages that post the brand's existing videos many times a day from real iPhones, built and run end to end by a provider such as TIDE, so organic reach grows with the number of pages instead of headcount or ad spend. This lets you run a large number of pages easily, so you can reach more potential riders without adding extra work.
Build a machine that works for you
Your goal is to build a predictable engine for customer acquisition. If a network of accounts helps you achieve that, then build it. If it doesn't, then refine it. You are the architect of your business growth. Use the tools that give you the best return on your time and resources. Don't be afraid to experiment, and don't be afraid to cut what isn't working. Keep your focus on the end result, and you will build a brand that reaches the people you need to reach.
Run as many accounts as you need to drive meaningful business results, using a managed network to keep the work efficient and scalable.

Follow-up questions
Is there such a thing as too many accounts?
Yes, if you can no longer manage the quality or the reputation. Keep the focus on your brand and your message, and you will be fine.
Does this hurt my brand's credibility?
Not if your content is authentic and high quality. People care about the quality of the product and the information you are providing.
What happens if a page gets flagged?
It happens. With a large network, it is a normal part of the process. You simply replace it and keep moving forward.
