KTM REVEALS 2025 ‘CHAMPIONS EDITION’ EXC MODELS

To celebrate KTM’s long-standing dominance in the FIM Hard Enduro and EnduroGP World Championships, the Austrian brand has just released an EXC ‘Champions Edition’ range of 2025-model machines. From both component spec and pricing points of view, these new Champions Edition models are similar to KTM’s up-specced 2025 EXC Six Days machines, and are due to arrive in Oz and NZ in limited numbers from November, 2024.

Here’s an excerpt from KTM’s PR about these up-specced new Champions Edition models…

In 1974, Motocross racer Gennadij Moiseev, won KTM’s first 250cc World Championship, setting the tone for what would become an unparalleled motorsports success story. In 1990, KTM won the first-ever Enduro World Championship with Paul Edmondson and Peter Hansson. Today, over 50 years and more than 340 world titles later, KTM presents the Champions Edition to honour the past and present KTM champions.

WHICH MODELS?

The 2025 KTM EXC Champions Edition line-up boasts several key models, with the KTM 250EXC Champions Edition and KTM 300EXC Champions Edition leading the two-stroke stables in both Australia and New Zealand. On the four-stroke side of the pitlane, the KTM 350EXC-F Champions Edition and KTM 450EXC-F Champions Edition complete the line-up in Australia only.

SPECIAL PARTS

Setting the KTM EXC Champions Edition apart from the rest of the KTM Enduro range is a Red Bull KTM Factory Racing graphics kit, poised to take its place between the standard KTM EXC and KTM EXC Six Days range. And while featuring the same, proven race-winning parts package as the rest of the KTM Enduro arsenal, the KTM EXC Champions Edition adds the following to the mix:

• Red Bull KTM Factory Racing graphics
• Orange frame
• Frame protection set
• Grey, ODI lock-on grips
• Orange Factory Racing seat
• Map-select switch
• Orange front axle puller
• Semi-floating front brake disc

CHAMPS EDITIONS IN 3 CHAMPS’ HANDS

Who better to showcase the new models in a competition setting than three of KTM’s most renowned racers? Two-time world enduro champion, Johnny Aubert, will head to Galicia, Spain, in October this year to take on the iconic FIM International Six Days Enduro (ISDE). The Frenchman will be joined by New Zealander, Chris Birch – hard enduro star and three-time Roof of Africa winner – as well as Red Bull Erzbergrodeo victor (and Mani’s Dad) Andreas Lettenbichler. Together, the three legends of enduro will contest the ISDE’s Club Team class as the KTM All Star Team – all riding KTM EXC Champions Edition machines.

Set to soon roll off the Mattighofen production line, the selected new 2025 KTM EXC Champions Edition machines will be available at authorised KTM dealers in Australia and New Zealand from November, 2024. For more information, visit KTM.com
