KTM Reveals “Light-Weight” Concept Car

Wait….what?  KTM made a car?  When I think of KTM, I conjure up memories of blasting through tight berms and pulling off a trick tabletop over a set of doubles on my old KTM 250 motorcycle at the local dirt track ;)  Well it seems those days continue, but with a new devision that has developed a snazzy new prototype car called “X-Bow“.

KTM jumps into the performance car genre with both feet by revealing this stylish roadster.  Although it sports only a lightweight 700 kilos, it makes it up with its radical sleek design, a powerful 220hp Audi engine, and a finely engineered carbon-fibre frame.

At first glance, it seems a bit ungraceful, not having the standard full sleek frame one is used to with a performance vehicle.  Yet, after reviewing its specs, and given the full 360 degree view, it kinda grew on me.  I’ll see how it does…KTM says only 100 will be produced through 2007, and see if there is a demand for their new creation.
