The All-Electric KTM SX-E 2.12 Sets Its Sights On Taller Beginners

Slotting between the KTM SX-E 2 and KTM SX-E 3, the all-new KTM SX-E 2.12 provides taller, little riders with the ideal starting platform.

Like the KTM SX-E 2, the KTM SX-E 2.12 is designed and built around an extended version of the centre tube aluminum extrusion frame concept, with a 12-inch front wheel replacing the KTM SX-E 2’s 10-inch front wheel, as well as extended suspension elements providing a taller stance.

Upfront, a WP Hydraulic Fork with 90 mm travel takes care of the bumps, while a preload-adjustable 34 mm hydraulic monoshock takes care of matters at the rear. The monoshock is mounted directly to the swingarm, offering 70 mm of travel, and is perfectly matched to the front forks in terms of exceptional balance and damping characteristics.

Drive is provided by a lightweight, maintenance-free 1.8 kW HUB Motor powered by a water-sealed IP65 9.4 Ah, Lithium-ion power-tool-type battery, delivering a maximum of 50 Nm. Being devoid of any additional parts like chains or sprockets, this “HUB-Motor-Concept” keeps weight low and provides added safety in the event of a crash.

Being silent and easy to operate, with a lightweight construction, the KTM SX-E 2.12 is equally at home in the backyard or built-up park areas with strict noise restrictions.

Charging is taken care of by an external charger supplying up to 500 W that can be connected to any 110- or 230-volt socket, taking approximately 60 minutes to achieve a full 100% charge.

From a safety and usability standpoint, the KTM SX-E 2.12 is fitted with a roll-over sensor that cuts power in the event of a crash or tip-over. A wrist lanyard key also provides a direct connection between the riders and the kill switch, which stops the motor in the event of an uncontrollable riding scenario.

An illuminated multifunctional display located on the handlebar also makes keeping an eye on selected ride modes simple, with different colours indicating which ride mode is selected.

The KTM SX-E 2.12 once again showcases KTM’s commitment to the next generations of champions, providing young riders with the same level of top-quality materials and high-end components as the rest of the SX range.

Priced at £2,549, the 2027 KTM SX-E 2.12 will be available in authorised KTM dealers nationwide from mid-October 2026.
