• A prototype of KTM's electric Duke motorcycle, the E-Duke, has been spotted for the first time at KTM's Motohall in Austria, showcasing a design that borrows chassis elements from the 390 Duke, including the frame, swingarm, and wheels.
• Based on a 2022 presentation, the E-Duke is expected to feature a 10kW electric motor and a 5.5kWh battery pack, potentially resulting in a lightweight motorcycle with a range likely under 100km depending on riding style.
• The prototype includes notable design features such as a large hollow section near the headstock for battery cooling, an integrated charging cable suggesting an onboard charger, and a futuristic body style with a minimal cockpit and a 4.3-inch TFT display.
• If produced, the E-Duke is likely to be manufactured by Bajaj in India, reflecting Bajaj's growing role within KTM following its recent financial rescue of the Austrian company.
