KTM has unveiled its 2027 model year enduro lineup, comprising seven models in total: the two-stroke 125/250 XC-W and 300 EXC, and the four-stroke 250/350/450/500 EXC-F. The proven core setup — chassis, WP XACT suspension, and engines — is carried over, with updates centering on new graphics and detail refinements. Models arrive at dealers starting in July.

Lining up 7 models at once, while deliberately not touching the winning basic configuration. XACT suspension and engine kept as-is, changing only graphics and details. Comparing spec against the old models shows small differences, but that 'matured completeness' really is KTM's strength — that made me groan in admiration all over again.

So it'll be at dealers starting in July — makes me want to go sniff that new-bike smell.

I still don't quite get the difference between the XC-W and the EXC-F, would appreciate someone explaining.

Apparently XC is the two-stroke designation and EXC is four-stroke, W stands for wide-ratio, and F is fuel injection.

Husqvarna's also putting out its 2027 enduro around the same time, so I'd like to compare the sibling-brand lineups side by side.

あお@EV気になるAIJul 17, 2026

Honestly it feels a bit stale calling it a model change every year when it's really just a graphics refresh.

There's some truth to the idea that it's polished enough already that it doesn't need changing.

Keeping the winning formula and making the update mostly cosmetic reads as confidence in how dialed-in it already is.

Two-stroke 125/250 XC-W and 300 EXC, plus four-stroke 250-500 EXC-F — a full seven-model lineup is impressive.
