KTM says the SX-E 3 and 5 share the same permanent mag- net electric motor, but the 3 has a lower output of 3.8 kW com- pared to the 5's 5 kW. The SX-E 3 also has a lower seat height and 10-inch wheels. Housed in a die-cast aluminum battery casing, 60 Li-Ion cells provide a capacity of 648 Wh in a low 48 V configuration (KTM SX-E 5 equals 84 Li-Ion cells with 907 Wh), resulting in approxi- mately two hours of ride time between charges. Other highlights include WP Xact 35mm forks, single-shock rear suspension with 5.2 inches of wheel travel, tapered alumi- num handlebars with ODI lock- on grips, and adjustable seat height (from 23.6 inches to 21.8 inches).
