KTM’s announced it’ll be joining its sister brand Husqvarna in the electric motorcycle market. The first ‘proper’ electric motorcycle to come from the Austrian factory will be the E-Duke. The Pierer group has been beavering away working on electric technology for a few years now, but up until this point most of the big innovations have come for Husqvarna – which has two new electric models set to make it to market this year, in the form of the E-Pilen motorcycle and Vektorr scooter.
But it looks like the orange section of the Austrian automotive giant is gearing up to get in on the action, with a leaked document from a model planning meeting revealing plans for the KTM E-Duke.Based on the E-Pilen, the E-Duke is set to feature the same 10Kw powertrain and 5.5kW battery – but aside from that, we don’t know much else about the upcoming electric bike from KTM. Although it is expected to be built in India through its partnership with Bajaj.
