Introducing the 2019 KTM Freeride E-XC, a cutting-edge electric motorcycle that seamlessly blends eco-friendliness with exhilarating off-road performance. Positioned in the enduro-offroad category, the Freeride E-XC caters to both seasoned riders and newcomers looking to embrace the thrill of trail riding without the noise and emissions of traditional combustion engines. This model exemplifies KTM’s commitment to innovation, delivering a powerful electric experience that’s lightweight and nimble, making it perfect for tackling rugged terrains and challenging trails. At the heart of the Freeride E-XC lies an efficient electric engine that produces a robust torque of 42 Nm (31 ft.lbs), ensuring swift acceleration and responsive handling. With a liquid cooling system, this electric powerhouse maintains optimal performance, allowing riders to push the limits without overheating. The bike’s lightweight design, weighing in at just 111 kg (244.7 lbs), combined with a well-tuned WP suspension system, offers an extraordinary riding experience. Riders can appreciate the 260 mm rear travel and 43 mm front suspension, which absorb bumps and obstacles with ease, providing confidence and control on any terrain. KTM has packed the Freeride E-XC with a range of features that enhance both performance and convenience. The perimeter steel-aluminium composite frame ensures a sturdy yet lightweight construction, while the electric starter allows for instant engagement without the hassle of traditional kick-starts. With a generous ground clearance of 340 mm (13.4 inches), riders can navigate rocky paths and deep ruts without worry. The striking color scheme of blue, white, and orange not only captures the eye but also pays homage to KTM's racing heritage, making it a standout in any off-road environment. **

Pros

  • Eco-Friendly Performance: The electric engine delivers powerful torque without the noise or emissions of traditional gas-powered bikes.
