KTM unveils X-Bow Arrow: a 330 hp side-by-side UTV with an Audi powertrain
KTM has introduced its first off-road side-by-side UTV, the Arrow: the standard version delivers 280 hp, while the limited edition offers up to 330 hp.
KTM X-Bow has unveiled the Arrow, the brand’s first-ever off-road side-by-side UTV. The model is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder Audi engine and a seven-speed dual-clutch automated transmission.
The standard version produces 280 hp, while the launch Black Limited Edition is rated for up to 330 hp. The vehicle is built on a chromoly steel frame with double-wishbone suspension at both the front and rear. The company plans to extend the suspension travel to over 23.6 inches, and the dampers were developed in collaboration with KW Reiger.
The Arrow’s cabin is fully enclosed. It features Sabelt seats and harness systems, while the Black Limited Edition additionally includes air conditioning and a hydraulic fly-off handbrake. Front and rear locking differentials are standard on all versions.
The project was tested with the involvement of the G Rally Team/KTM X-Bow Lab Team, founded in 2018 by KTM X-Bow owner Guillaume de Mevius. The team’s experience in rally raids, including the Dakar Rally and the FIA World Rally-Raid Championship, was applied to refine the vehicle.
The Black Limited Edition will be produced in a series of 500 numbered units. Its price starts at $98,600, while the standard Arrow begins at $59,800. Initially, the limited edition will be available through a closed reservation process before being offered to a broader range of buyers. Orders for both versions will open on 17 November through KTM X-Bow dealers and the company’s website, with the first customer deliveries scheduled for late 2027. Prices are based on an exchange rate of $1 to €0.90 and may vary due to currency fluctuations, duties, and local taxes.
