KTM kept its promise of launching a street-legal version of the track-only X-Bow GT2 unveiled in 2020. Called X-Bow GT-XR, the coupe shares numerous competition-proven parts with its race-going sibling but gains a number of features added to improve comfort.

Power for the GT-XR comes from a turbocharged, 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine sourced from Audi and tuned to develop 517 horsepower and 428 pound-feet of torque. If those figures don't sound supercar-worthy, keep in mind that the latest addition to the KTM range weighs merely 2,755 pounds. Put another way, it has more power than the last-generation Mercedes-AMG C63 S yet it weighs less than a Subaru BRZ.
