2023 KTM Freeride E-XC

The KTM FREERIDE E-XC represents the latest generation of KTM electric bikes. It features a brushless 18 kW synchronous motor in a modern FREERIDE chassis with WP XPLOR suspension front and rear, making it outstandingly agile, as well as highly dynamic with great offroad mobility. The KTM FREERIDE E-XC is a true all-rounder for pure fun on every terrain.

Features may include:

• State-of-the-art electric motor with 18 kW of maximum output

• Quick change KTM PowerPack with 3.9 kWh capacity

• Adjustable WP XPLOR 43 front fork with 250 mm of travel

• Adjustable WP XPLOR PDS rear shock with 260 mm of travel

• Giant laced wheels 21"/18"; with anodized aluminum rims

• FORMULA brakes for improved feeling & performance

• Control unit

The state-of-the-art control unit is an advanced set of electronics delivering an important contribution toward the responsive yet highly tractable power delivery of the KTM FREERIDE E-XC. It is water cooled in order to ensure reliable function under any conditions.

• Drivetrain

The KTM FREERIDE E-XC's brushless electric motor is controlled by an intelligent, state-of-the-art control unit specifically adapted for this application to guarantee a responsive, yet highly tractable power delivery for maximum riding fun. In fact, the tighter and twistier the tracks, the more fun is to be had: since the full torque is on tap basically from a standstill, which means that neither a gear shift lever nor a clutch are needed, there is no simpler way of riding a motorcycle.With the advanced motor providing 18 kW of peak power in Cross mode 3, the KTM FREERIDE E-XC easily holds its own against many motorcycles with combustion engines. In addition, when Economy mode is selected, the model is able to recuperate deceleration energy during coasting and braking for an additional range boost.At the same time, the KTM FREERIDE E-XC delivers full operational safety without compromise. Even fully submerged in water, there is no electrical hazard from the sophisticated, fully sealed system of the drivetrain and KTM PowerPack.

• Frame

The chassis of the KTM FREERIDE E-XC features a very lightweight composite frame design combining top quality chrome-molybdenum steel with bolt-on forged aluminum sections. The frame has an open lower section, with the motor and massive aluminum skid plate functioning as stressed members. This design ensures optimal stiffness and stability for top safety, even in high jumps.
