KTM 2027 Enduro Range – What's New

Jack Nixey

The 2027 KTM Enduro lineup has landed, and if you've been riding the 2026 models, you'll want to know what's changed. Whether you're a two-stroke purist or a four-stroke convert, KTM has refined the range across the board. Here's the breakdown.

Two-Stroke Enduro – XC-W & EXC

KTM's two-stroke enduro bikes remain the weapon of choice for tight, technical terrain. The 2027 models carry over the Transfer Port Injection (TPI) system — now rebranded as TBI — with further mapping refinements for sharper throttle response and cleaner low-end delivery compared to the 2026 bikes.

The KTM 125 XC-W 2027 is the entry point — featherlight, flickable, and perfect for tight woods riding. The 2027 update brings improved suspension settings over the 2026, making it more planted on rough ground without losing that nimble feel.

Step up to the KTM 250 XC-W 2027 and you've got the sweet spot of the two-stroke range — enough grunt for open sections, light enough to hustle through the trees. Priced at £9,249 OTR, it's a serious bit of kit for serious enduro riders.

At the top of the two-stroke pile sits the KTM 300 EXC 2027. The 300 has always been the go-to for hard enduro and extreme terrain, and the 2027 model continues that legacy. Compared to the 2026, expect sharper power delivery and updated ergonomics that make long days in the saddle more manageable.

Four-Stroke Enduro – EXC-F

The four-stroke EXC-F range suits riders who want broad, predictable power and strong low-to-mid torque — ideal for enduro racing and trail riding alike.

The KTM 250 EXC-F 2027 is the lightest four-stroke in the lineup. The 2027 revision brings engine refinements that close the gap on the two-strokes in terms of weight and agility — a real option if you want four-stroke reliability without the bulk.

The KTM 350 EXC-F 2027 is arguably the most versatile bike in the entire range. It punches well above its displacement, and the 2027 updates sharpen the chassis geometry slightly for better cornering confidence over the 2026 model.

For outright power, the KTM 450 EXC-F 2027 and KTM 500 EXC-F 2027 are the big guns. Both get updated fuel mapping and suspension calibration for 2027, making them more manageable at lower speeds without blunting the top-end hit that makes them so addictive on open enduro stages.

2026 vs 2027 – What's Actually Different?

The 2027 range isn't a ground-up redesign — it's a focused evolution. Key changes across the board include:

  • Refined TBI fuel injection mapping for improved throttle response
  • Updated suspension settings front and rear for better trail compliance
  • Revised ergonomics with updated seat foam and handlebar positioning
  • Chassis geometry tweaks on select models for sharper cornering

If you're on a 2026, it's a meaningful step forward rather than a cosmetic refresh.
