![]() Pre-orders are now being accepted, and deliveries of the first 25 vehicles (GTX and GT2) are planned for autumn this year. And with a total length of 4.700 mm and a width of 2.040 mm, the external dimensions also do justice to KISKA’s spectacular design and the vehicle’s technological sophistication. Das Hightech-System mit zwei Kameras und zwei Bildschirmen jeweils rechts und links am Fahrzeug bzw. With 2.850 mm, they have the longest wheelbases in the GT segment. Anstelle von klassischen Seitenspiegeln setzt KTM im neuen X-BOW GTX (wie auch im GT-') auf latenzfreie CMS-Technologie von Kappa optronics. The new KTM X-BOW GTX and the KTM X-BOW GT2 have now become very big cars. We have also modified the canopy and the roll cage to allow for more headroom.” We will also offer the so-called “Advanced Seat’, which is available on request and offers even more comfort. On the one hand, we have a homologated GT roll cage, and on the other, also a homologated monocoque. Further to that, our safety concept combines the best of both worlds. Thanks to the light weight of the car and of the efficient, state-of-the-art Audi 5-cylinder engine, this means minimal abrasive wear. Michael Wölfling, General Manager of KTM Sportcar GmbH adds: “With a vehicle weight of around 1,000 kg and an output of over 500hp (GTX) and 600hp (GT2) respectively, we don’t have to shy away from comparisons. It is also sensational news that, given the successful homologation of our car by the SRO, makes it eligible to start in the absolute top league of GT racing, the ‘GT World Challenge Europe Sprint Cup’. At the same time, the car sets absolute standards in matters of efficiency, and perhaps most importantly, also safety. Here, it is important to bear in mind that these vehicles have a power-to-weight ratio that is normally only available in the supercar segment. This made it possible to come up with an extremely interesting price – 294,000 euros (net) for the KTM X-BOW GT2 and 230,000 euros (net) for the KTM X-BOW GTX. ![]() KTM board member Hubert Trunkenpolz: “We took a close look at the competitive environment, and thanks to our experience in designing lightweight vehicles, we were able to make several cost optimizations. Pre-sales are to begin immediately, and the prices are now established. ![]() The models are now being introduced onto the market and will be available direct from the KTM Sportcar GmbH or their nominated partners. The maximum power output of 300 hp is attained at 6,400 rpm. ![]() The racing car, developed together with Reiter Engineering, is being manufactured in the GT2 version, and also a basic KTM X-BOW GTX model for a wide range of GT racing series, (both long-distance and sprint racing). The engine achieves its maximum torque of 420 Nm at an engine speed of only 3,200 rpm thereby making, in the truest sense of the phrase, very light work of the KTM X-BOW GT, which tips the scales at a mere 847 kg. Text originally from KTM.com Performance and purism, united in a unique, extreme design. The car’s low centre of gravity, coupled with the kind of aerodynamics and agile handling usually only seen on the racetrack, make the KTM X-BOW GT-XR a super sportscar that genuinely is "READY TO RACE".Following enthusiastic reactions to KTM Sportcar GmbH’s announcement that they, with the KTM X-BOW GT2, wanted to enter the SRO’s new GT2 class as third manufacturer, further details on KTM’s latest lightweight sports car are now available. The KTM X-Bow GTX is the ultimate version of the X-Bow lineup. Vortices generated by the front spoiler and routed around the floor create a seal of air underneath the car and enhance the aerodynamic effect even further. The unique "AirCurtain" system in a road-legal car has been developed to create an aerodynamic ground effect that helps the car stick to the road. From the wedge-like body shape and the sleek and streamlined front surface of the car to the aerodynamically optimised wheel suspension, a floor section designed to maximise ground effect and the rear diffusor and large rear wing, every effort has gone into achieving the maximum amount of downforce at the lowest possible air resistance. ![]() The aerodynamics of the KTM X-BOW GT-XR are clearly derived from the highly successful KTM X-BOW GT2, with the designers paying close attention to optimal aerodynamic efficiency. ![]()
