Limits Redefined: 2026 Ktm Enduro Lineup LaunchedEnduro trails have lacked some fresh orange in 2025, so now is the time to peel away both the covers and the limits for the rest of the year and beyond with the 2026 KTM EXC range.

We’ve redefined our conquering Enduro collection and also the limits thanks to blankets updates and key refinements to the principal seven models, and with more specials to come.

Tracks, obstacles, stages, Hard Enduro, all-weather, all-competition: the 2026 KTM Enduro roster has the pedigree and the focus to satisfy any level, any ability, any contest. The only real question is whether riders can make the most of the engineering?

The first obvious change for 2026 comes with a shift in the naming conventions. 2-stroke enthusiasts will see that ‘EXC’ is now ‘XC-W’ for both the KTM 125 XC-W and KTM 250 XC-W models: bikes crafted for competition purposes. The KTM 300 EXC keeps the same tag, denoting its status as the sole EURO5+ homologated 2-stroke and therefore extending its potential.

The 2026 KTM Enduro portfolio consists of:

  • KTM 125 XC-W
  • KTM 250 XC-W
  • KTM 300 EXC
  • KTM 250 EXC-F
  • KTM 350 EXC-F
  • KTM 450 EXC-F
  • KTM 500 EXC-F

KTM riders – past and current – know that modifications are crucial to maintain a competitive edge while newcomers to the XC-W or EXC families will be wondering how those orange bikes fly along so fast and with verve. The present KTM Enduro platform has been chiseled to an exceptionally high standard for engine technology (powerful, compact, reliable, light and advanced motors, with the TBI electronic fuel injection system for 2-strokes), the world class hydro-formed, laser-cut and robot-welded chassis’ (including lithe aluminum subframes and swingarms) with calculated longitude and torsional flex for a prime riding sensation. The bikes are race ready refined. Example? How about the forged triple clamps, Neken bars, Brembo brakes and hydraulic clutch, Keihin throttle body and ODI lock-on grips. Then other attributes like the Offroad Control Unit and GIANT high-strength alloy rims, potent LED headlight and in-mold plastics.

The 2026 range then brings significant suspension upgrades with the tried-and-tested 48 mm WP XACT Closed Cartridge fork receiving new damping settings and new, lighter, shorter springs, as well as a reworked pressure reservoir that has been adapted with revised geometry of the spring support. A new one-piece hydro stop rounds out the front fork overhaul which also results in an overall weight-saving of 200 grams. Less weight, more performance equals more feel, more confidence.

KTM signature shock technology with the WP XPLOR PDS also benefits from the same attention to parts and optimization as the fork. Maintenance is a breeze with no external moving parts to worry about. The constant strive for better traction and stability continues and takes another roll forwards.

A new protection cap has been added to the CPC fuel connector for all bikes. This not only provides an added layer against damage but is also another seal to prevent the intrusion of dirt and water. The cooling system on 2026 KTM Enduro models has undergone a revision with a new radiator cap. A standard thread allows for easier and faster opening. On a related subject radiator fans are attached on the KTM 300 EXC model and all KTM EXC-F models.

A notable difference comes through the fresh 2026 styling and in-mold graphics package for the bi-composite plastics. The effect introduces a more vivid orange to the scene but also flashes of red on the forkguards and re-modelled tank spoilers where redistributed airflow will help with cooling. The high-grip seat cover is now black with similar textured material for the frame protectors, bar pads and tank spoilers. Last but not least, Maxxis have provided a new softer compound for the superb MaxxEnduro rear tires.

The 2026 KTM EXC range is the culmination of many years of R&D fighting at the sharp end of Enduro competition worldwide, bringing dynamic race-bred performance, focused ergonomics, and leading technology to the start line. Ready for the next lap?

As always, a dedicated spread of KTM PowerWear and KTM PowerParts are designed to provide the highest levels of customisation (both practical and aesthetic) with vast collections ready to meet the wishes of hobby riders and pro racers alike.

2026 KTM Enduro bikes will be available at authorised KTM dealers starting from August, while the 2026 KTM 300 EXC will start delivery in October. For more information, visit KTM.com.
