KTM Introduces SX-E 5
Electric Minicycle
KTM's new SX-E 5
is the company's
new electric-
powered minicycle
that is expected
to be available in
November.
T
he newly developed KTM SX-E 5 is the next step in KTM's
innovative lineup, says the Austrian manufacturer KTM. The
KTM SX-E 5 is based on the company's popular two-stroke KTM
50 SX with a high-end chassis powered by an electric motor.
The mission, KTM says, is clear: "to create an ultra-competitive
machine that is also easy to ride, even for pure beginners."
Zero emissions, low noise and
minimal maintenance makes the
SX-E 5 a good option for young-
sters looking to make the first step
into the world of motorcycling and
is good for the growing rider with
its adjustable seat height.
KTM claims its KTM Power-
Pack can provide more than two
hours of riding for a beginner, or
25 minutes for the faster junior
racers, and with its external world-
wide charger, full power is re-
stored in approximately one hour.
The SX-E 5 will be available in
North American dealerships in fall
2019. CN
