FIRST LOOK: KTM'S 2027 EXC & EXC-F RANGE

Fresh graphics and the same proven technical platform, the 2027 KTM EXC and EXC-F enduro range is heading to Australian and New Zealand dealers from September 2026, spanning two-stroke and four-stroke models from 250cc through to 500cc.

KTM’s EXC and EXC-F enduro range has been a reference point in the segment for the better part of three decades, and for 2027 the Austrian manufacturer isn’t fixing what isn’t broken. The headline update across the range is a fresh graphics package that reinforces KTM’s READY TO RACE identity, while the established technical platform – proven WP XACT suspension, refined engine packages and KTM’s advanced chassis concept – carries over across both two-stroke and four-stroke models.

It’s a measured update for a range that’s already well-regarded at every level of enduro competition, from club-level trail riding through to the world stage. Australian and New Zealand riders can expect the 2027 lineup to land in authorised KTM dealerships from September 2026 onwards.
