The KTM X-bow is the first car to be developed by Austrian motorcycle manufacturer KTM, in partnership with Kiska Design, Audi, and Dallara. The X-Bow uses a turbocharged direct injected TFSI engine manufactured by Volkswagen Group, which produces 177 kilowatts (237 hp) at 5,500 rpm and 310 newton metres (230 lb·ft) of torque between 2,200 and 5,500 rpm.
Originally, KTM planned a production of 500 units per year, however, the company has increased production to 1,000 cars a year and has built a new plant near Graz due to high demand.
RacingKTM X-Bow participated in the Supersport category of the 2008 (13 years ago) FIA GT4 Championship (#100 Catharina Felser, #101 Christopher Haase and Dennis Retera, by Reiter Engineering), taking a podium finish at Monza and the pole in the wet qualifying session at Nogaro.
The FIA-homologated model KTM X-bow „GT4“ is available for racing purposes.
