KTM Freeride E-XC 2014

KTM dares to take the step - for the first time, the Mattighofen-based company is launching an electric motorbike that is a hell of a lot of fun and surprisingly uncomplicated to operate. The three different power levels mean that everyone from beginners to professionals will get their money's worth. It's amazing how smoothly you can start off with the Freeride E in difficult passages, while the high torque typical of an electric motor is immediately available when the power is fully "ripped". The range is now also quite decent, the battery lasts 45 minutes - that's enough for larger Enduro tours. Of course, the pioneering role costs more money; at over 11,000 euros, the Freeride E is not cheap fun. You should also plan for a second battery - otherwise it's over after 45 minutes, you can't just refuel in two minutes. The ingenious thing about the Freeride E, however, is that it can conquer any mountain bike trail and, in terms of its concept, probably also the urban area - we are waiting "with bated breath".
