With the release of several new intermediate entries, KTM seeks to fill a gap in its growing line of electric offroad bikes for kids.
When KTM AG unveiled three new mini bikes at its North America Dealer Summit in Charlotte, N.C., last weekend, it looked to onboard a new demographic of young riders.
The new SX-E 3, EE 3, and MC-E 3 aim to bridge the gap between KTM’s electric balance bikes and the burlier SX-E 5, EE 5, and MC-E 5 mini bikes. The three new electric bikes join the lineup that now offers more options for young riders with a range of skill sets, from absolute beginners to competition riders.
“Our relationships with our dealers, their feedback and input have always been invaluable to us,” said Florian Kecht, Chief Sales Officer at KTM AG. “That’s why we are proud to present our range of electric motorcycles for the youngest riders for the first time here in the world’s biggest offroad motorcycle market.”
One bike flies under each of KTM’s brand banners, which also include Husqvarna and GASGAS.

By the middle of the 2020s, KTM wants its electric lineup to include more than 20 offroad bikes. The SX-E 3, EE 3, and MC-E 3 fit its initiative to serve “young talents who are taking the future of motorsports to the next level.”

The Kids Are the Future. Is the Future Electric?
