KTM continues to push the boundaries of performance with a new extreme model dedicated to adrenaline enthusiasts.
KTM is strengthening its presence in the extreme motorcycle segment with the launch of the 300 EXC HARDENDURO 2026. Already favored by top Enduro riders, this bike benefits from numerous technical improvements and is designed to tackle the most winding trails.
Since its launch in 2024, the 300 EXC HARDENDURO has established itself as the flagship model of KTM’s Enduro line, bringing racing expertise and a championship-winning pedigree directly to dealerships. The 2026 version features major updates to the suspension, cooling system, and overall design, aimed at increasing its dominance in extreme terrains.
KTM Proud of Its Racing Heritage
In terms of aesthetics, KTM offers a new graphic package: the traditional orange of the brand is complemented by white and black accents, with a glossy orange frame and KTM PowerParts anodized orange components. The bike maintains its HARDENDURO identity with specific parts, such as the orange frame, Factory wheels, notched seat, frame and engine protections, as well as dedicated handlebars and grips.
The technical updates are significant: the 48 mm WP XACT fork benefits from new damping adjustments and lighter, shorter springs, while the rear WP XPLOR PDS shock has been reworked for optimal balance. A new fuel system and improved cooling with radiator fan are also incorporated, ensuring reliability and performance even in extreme conditions.
