Positioned in KTM's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2015 KTM Freeride E-SM features a purpose-built air-cooled electric configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 22 HP (16.1 kW) at 4,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 42 Nm (31 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox and chain final drive.
On the scales, the Freeride E-SM measures 110 kg (243 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.2 HP/kg (5 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 910 mm (35.8 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,418 mm (55.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
