2023 KTM SX-E 3 Base
2023 KTM SX-E 3
ULTIMATE E-BEGINNERPerfect for grass-roots level riders and just as green, the 2023 KTM SX-E 3 breaks ground at the leading edge of all-electric mini-cross. Aimed at absolute beginners, the KTM SX-E 3 slides into the range below the more powerful KTM SX-E 5 with an ever more user-friendly package. Lower power output, battery capacity, and smaller wheels make it the ideal choice for the youngest of riders finding their feet - and throttle.
Features may include:
DRIVETRAIN- Motor
This fully electric, battery-powered air-cooled permanent magnet motor produces a healthy 3.9 kW, featuring an extremely compact and slim design that perfectly matches the KTM SX-E 3's smaller chassis. It's also dust and waterproof which makes it wear and maintenance-free, while the integrated control unit (ECU) guarantees a direct, but very controllable power delivery.
CHASSIS- FRAME
The KTM SX-E 3 has a modern frame design that is made of lightweight, high-strength chromium-molybdenum steel profiles and combines maximum longitudinal stiffness with optimum torsional rigidity. The subframe is made of lightweight, fiber-glass reinforced extruded plastic elements, which can be mounted in two positions for different seat heights.
- Wheels
The 2023 KTM SX-E 3 is fitted with 10" wheels front and rear, and just like the bigger machines, these lightweight, black anodized, aluminum rims provide the highest strength and durability. These are wrapped in new MAXXIS MX-ST tires, to provide unmatched traction on any surface.
- Front suspension
Featuring advanced suspension technology, the KTM SX-E 3 is fitted with non-adjustable upside-down WP XACT 35mm forks. Class-leading in their own right, the forks provide exceptional damping and comfort characteristics allowing the rider to push their limit with complete confidence, while the 144 mm of wheel travel means the limit is a far way off indeed.
ERGONOMICS & COMFORT- HANDLEBAR
The KTM SX-E 5 uses high-quality tapered NEKEN handlebars, made of aluminum alloy ensuring top stability and safety. Its diameter tapers from 28 mm in the central area, to 22 mm in the bends, to 18 mm in the handhold area. This allows for a thinner lock-on ODI grip to be mounted on the left side while the right side features a newly developed throttle assembly with a vulcanized ODI grip, specifically developed for the electronic drive. An additional crash pad on the handlebar brace protects the rider from rough contact.
BODYWORK & GRAPHICS- DECALS
The 2023 KTM SX-E 3 features the latest in-mold graphics, with a bold orange and blue design that perfectly sets off the factory-look orange frame, orange seat and race-sharpened bodywork.
SOFTWARE & ELECTRONICS- BATTERY
The KTM SX-E 3 is fitted with 60 modern lithium-ion cells in a robust die-cast aluminum casing mounted just above the motor, storing 648 Wh of energy. This allows more than two hours of riding for a beginner, with even the fastest young riders only able to deplete the battery in around 30 minutes. And should you want more time between charges, the battery can be upgraded to the SX-E 5 battery with 907 Wh.
