KTM X-BOW
UN CONCEPT DE VOITURE SPORTIVE RÉVOLUTIONNAIRE
Pour notre première voiture sportive, nous avons adopté l'approche que nous avons toujours suivie lors de la conception de nos motocycles prévus pour la course.
LA COURSE DANS LE SANG
L'idée derrière le premier modèle quatre roues KTM
KTM est une entreprise fondée autour de la course.
Le concept du design.
Axé sur l'inclusion d'éléments qui améliorent directement la performance et la fonctionnalité du véhicule, et laisser de côté tout de superflu. Rassemblement des meilleurs fournisseurs pour les composants nécessaires et utilisation des matériaux les plus légers et les plus avancés du marché.
Rien que le meilleur.
Le châssis a été développé en collaboration avec Dallara, le spécialiste italien en voitures sportives, et Wethje, les experts en composites. KTM Technologies et Audi, son collaborateur expert en moteurs, ont rendu la performance plus pointue, et WP a créé un système de suspension qui permet une prise en main et une tenue de route exceptionnelles.

La version poussée à l'extrême de la KTM X-BOW destinée aux courses sur circuit fermé
LA VOITURE DE COURSE D'AVANT-GARDE CONÇUE POUR LA VITESSE
Tirant le meilleur parti des dernières règlementations s'appliquant à la catégorie GT4, la structure de la KTM X-BOW homologuée pour la route a été spécialement adaptée à la catégorie sensationnelle, abordable et accessible de courses sur circuit GT4.
LA PURETÉ D'UNE VOITURE DE SPORT AMÉLIORÉE POUR LA COURSE EN GT4
La course impose des exigences extrêmes. Un design pur et modulaire, conçu pour la course permet un remplacement des pièces plus rapide, plus facile et beaucoup plus rentable.
LA TECHNOLOGIE X-BOW A FAIT SES PREUVES SUR LES CIRCUITS
L'actuel moteur turbocompressé TFSI 2 litres de la KTM X-BOW a été retenu et développe près de 320 ch. Il est associé à une boîte séquentielle Holinger à six rapports avec palettes au volant.
GÉOMÉTRIE MODIFIÉE ET AÉRODYNAMIQUE EXCEPTIONNELLE
L'empattement est un peu plus long que celui de la X-BOW d'origine pour une maniabilité plus précise et adaptée à la course et une aérodynamique améliorée sur l'ensemble du véhicule.
TECHNOLOGIE SPÉCIALE POUR VOITURES DE COURSE ULTRA-LÉGÈRES
Seuls des matériaux composites de pointe sont utilisés. Dotée d'une monocoque et de panneaux de carrosserie en fibre de carbone, la voiture est truffée de composants spécialement destinés à la course.

Reiter Young Stars
The Reiter Young Stars is the only program for up-and- coming young drivers in which industry partners (the sponsors) bring together marketing students, engineering students and young drivers who all jointly profit from the experience. The industry partners have an international advertising platform, which includes live TV and extensive media coverage, and also have access to more than 300,000 European students. The students in the program engage in an autonomous and very practical training with numerous additional workshops, while the drivers take part in an international GT motor racing series – all for only about €65,000. They compete with the KTM X-BOW GT4, currently the most modern and safest racing car in the world. What awaits the fastest male and female driver in the series is a fully financed season in the cockpit of a GT3 in the Blancpain GT Sprint Series.
KTM X-BOW CUP powered by Michelin
The VLN (Veranstaltergemeinschaft Langstreckenmeisterschaft Nürburgring") is probably the most successful popular racing series, which, since 1977 has been run on the Nürburgring’s Nordschleife. Different drivers, from amateur to professional, compete against each other in various classes in assorted vehicles ranging from series model touring cars to purebred prototype racing cars. The races last four hours, or in one exceptional case, for six hours, and are run on the Nordschleife in combination with the sprint section of the Grand Prix circuit over a 24,433 kilometer- long lap. In 2017, from the third race of the VLN racing series, there is an individual class called the “KTM X-BOW CUP powered by MICHELIN for the KTM X-BOW GT4. The competition offers attractive prizes during the season, and especially for the overall winner at the season’s end.
Creventic 24H Series
The "Creventic 24HSeries" came about as a result of the highly successful Dubai 24- hour race and has been launched on different racetracks worldwide. The emphasis is on Europe, and particularly on long-distance races over 12 or 24 hours. The field of starters can include everything from TCR touring cars to GT3 vehicles, which compete in different classes. The races sometimes have up to 100 starters. The KTM X-BOW GT4 is able to compete in a range of classes, depending on the BOP ("Balance of Performance"), and in recent years has won in some classes, picked up podium places and has also achieved impressive top 10 results in the midst of a GT3 cars field.
X-BOW Battle
The biggest and the most successful one-brand racing series in Europe has been bringing KTM X-BOW owners together at racing circuits since 2008. There they have the opportunity to compete against each other in the world’s most spectacular and fastest lightweight super sports car. In the meantime, in addition to the “Elite Class”, which is contested by the 360-hp KTM X-BOW RR models, there are two other racing series: a stand-alone “GT4” class with – nomen est omen - the KTM X-BOW GT4, and the entry-level “Rookies Challenge” series. Six X-BOW BATTLE events are held on Central Europe’s most beautiful circuits, with up to 60 vehicles per race weekend starting in the various classes.
X-BOW Rookies Challenge
Fair, transparent and cost-effective motor sport: The X-BOW Rookies Challenge offers the perfect platform for newcomers, amateurs and junior drivers to compete in one of the most attractive and safest racing cars in the world. The price for the complete package, which includes all expenses such as registration fees, tires, fuel, wear parts, support, preparation and follow-up, and the transport of a total of 20 identical vehicles, is sensational: from just € 25,000 (net, excluding insurance). With this, it is possible to take part in a total of 12 races on six different event weekends, and there is even a chance to compete in a one-hour endurance race at each event.
Pirelli World Challenge
North America’s biggest and most popular GT racing series is not only cooperating with the SRO, but has also set up with its own GTS-class a GT4 racing series. Races are in accordance with the rules (and the BOP) of the SRO Motorsports Group, and drivers contest two races each competition weekend. The Mantella Autosport and ANSA Motorsports teams won numerous podiums and also victories in the very first season in which the KTM X-BOW GT4 was able to start. ANSA driver Brett Sandberg even took the championship title in the "Pirelli World Challenge" at the end of the season, driving his KTM X-BOW GT4.
ENTRY LEVEL MOTORSPORTS
They say every beginning is difficult. But it doesn’t have to be because the KTM X- BOW is perfect for taking the first step into motor racing, or for sports driving on a circuit. On the one hand, the running costs during track time are limited due to the low weight and the clever conceptual design of this purebred racing vehicle. On the other, KTM offers numerous cost-effective opportunities to sample the world of motorsport. There are Track Days with half-hour turns that are organized directly by KTM, and the somewhat pepped up ‘Artbauer Race Days’ club sport races. It is also possible to compete with the KTM X-BOW on Austria’s Red Bull Ring at the "WISBI Don’t Crack Under Pressure Challenge", or in Austria’s biggest amateur race in both summer and winter with event organizers ‘razoon - more than racing’. It’s all about wherever you want to experience racing for the first time. Don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. We will be happy to help you!
