The KTM maxi-style electric scooter has been spotted being tested out in the wild. Motorrrad Online has been the first to spot and share the images of the KTM Maxi-Style electric scooter’s prototype. The KTM electric scooter is being tested in the European markets currently and if we go by the reports, it is in the initial development phase.

It is worth mentioning that KTM has already showcased the electric scooter. However, the concept that KTM revealed previously looked more aggressive compared to the prototype spotted being tested on the roads.

In fact, the images show aluminum body parts including the foot pegs and the swing arm. Also, most of the body components of the KTM maxi electric scooter are possibly 3D printed. This could be specifically for the test runs and the actual model will use different body material.

If we talk of the design changes compared to the concept model then the entire frame design seems less aggressive than the one shown in the concept. The KTM electric scooter’s floorboard isn’t flat as is the case with most maxi-style electric scooter. The thickness of the floorboard suggests the battery module could be mounted on it.

The upcoming electric scooter from KTM will have a flat seat design according to the leaked prototype images. This is a practical design for longer ride comforts for both the rider and the pillion. The leaked test mule images of the KTM electric scooter show alloy wheels and disc brakes. Up front, the KTM electric scooter prototype images show also show a windscreen.

If we talk of the powertrain, the KTM maxi-style electric scooter is said to use a Bajaj-manufactured battery pack. However, the battery capacity isn’t unspecified. Rumors are rife that the KTM electric scooter will be packed with an 8kW electric motor. The peak power capacity isn’t revealed but the electric scooter will possibly offer 100 kmph top speed.

KTM Maxi-Style Electric Scooter Official Launch Date

The KTM maxi-style electric scooter will likely make its debut in 2025 in India and the remaining markets. The rumor mill is expected to share the developments going forward.
