KTM Electric Scooter & Dirt Bike: KTM E-Speed Debut in 2015 & KTM Freeride E in 2014

 KTM seems to find a renewed interest in electric two-wheelers, which was interesting development. KTM management told Italian journalists that the KTM was scrapping its plans to build an electric dirt bike - the KTM Freeride E.

The Austrians have green-lit the electric scooter for production, and say that both the KTM E-Speed and KTM Freeride E will be available in European KTM dealerships within the next two years: the Freeride E by 2014 and the E-Speed by 2015.

“We believe in the electro-mobility on two wheels. Because offroad sport is our core area, we have developed an E-Crosser, the FREERIDE E, but we are also convinced that urban mobility can succeed in urban areas,” said Harald Plöckinger, KTM Executive Board Member for Production and Business Development.

The E-SPEED is our interpretation of emission-free propulsion for city use, but without compromising on the design and sportiness of our KTM genes!” he continued.


With the E-Speed built off what KTM had learned from the Freeride E, the electric scooter shares the same major electric drivetrain components as the electric dirt bike.
