KTM X-Bow to debut at the FIA GT4 European Cup
KTM announced that two X-Bow track cars will entry in this year’s FIA GT4 European Cup.

This exceptional position is the result of the concept: for their first car, KTM employs the finest materials, high-tech and the know-how of respected development partners such as Audi and Dallara. The result is a street-homologated sports car with racing technology, like an avantgarde, carbon fibre monocoque. Thanks to the basic version’s light weight and the 162 kW (220 hp) Audi TFSI engine, the performance values of the KTM X-Bow outstrip those of super-sport cars with more than twice the power: with a deadweight of approx. 700 kilos, the KTM X-Bow accelerates to 100 km/h in just 3.9 se Full story | * prototypes, future cars, modified cars (tuning) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
