At the heart of the 2023 Husqvarna 701 Supermoto super motard motorcycle, Husqvarna pairs a 692.7 cc (42.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 73.8 HP (53.8 kW) at 8,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 74 Nm (54.6 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 106.5 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (8,000 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the 701 Supermoto measures 147 kg (324 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.5 HP/kg (1.99 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 890 mm (35 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control. The 13-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.05 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 321 km (199 miles) between fill-ups.
