The 2025 KTM 250 EXC presents enduro riders with the ultimate combination of power and rideability, setting the benchmark in the highly contested E1 class. Thanks to its groundbreaking frame, closed-cartridge suspension, and epic TBI technology, it remains an extreme machine that continues to reach new heights. How far you push, though, is up to you.

This motorcycle is designed, developed and produced in Austria.

The 250cc 2-stroke engine has long been the best combination of unsurpassed power and lightweight construction. This lightweight 24.8 kg engine is designed to provide more torque than any previous 250cc 2-stroke engine without losing its typical 250 cc 2-stroke charactet. The KTM 250 EXC engine sets the benchmark in the competitive Enduro E1 class.

Specifically engineered for longitudinal rigidity, the KTM EXC range is engineered around an all black powder-coated frame providing exceptional rider feedback, energy absorption, and high-speed stability. This has been achieved by repositioning the rotating masses in the frame and the inclusion of a forged steering head connection. New parallel frame mounts also improve flex characteristics, while the footrest mounts have also moved inwards, slimming things down. And when the ride comes to an end, a completely redesigned forged one-piece side stand ensured things your enduro weapon stands proud.

The KTM EXC range features a rider-focussed body-position triangle, providing improved knee contact – especially when standing on the pegs – with improved gripping surfaces all around. With the plastics working to expel mud buildup in wet, muddy conditions, a flat seat profile with a high grip seat cover providing exceptional rider movement and control, and a polyamide-reinforced aluminum subframe providing unmatched rider feel and feedback, your only concern is navigating the terrain ahead of you.
