KTM (Kronreif & Trunkenpolz Mattighofen) is a globally recognized manufacturer of high-performance motorcycles, originally founded in Mattighofen, Austria. The brand has built a legendary reputation for its 'Ready to Race' philosophy, dominating off-road, motocross, and endurance racing circuits worldwide. Its 2026 lineup, including the SX and SX-F series, continues to push the boundaries of engine technology and chassis dynamics.

While the brand's heart and premium development remain in Austria, its global manufacturing footprint has expanded through strategic partnerships. High-end and off-road models are primarily manufactured in their state-of-the-art facilities in Mattighofen. However, smaller displacement street models (like the Duke and RC series) are produced in collaboration with Bajaj Auto in India and CFMOTO in China to serve broader international markets.

Ownership of the brand is currently structured under PIERER Mobility AG, a European leader in powered two-wheelers. The group manages a portfolio of premium brands, ensuring that KTM maintains its Austrian heritage while benefiting from massive industrial synergies and technological innovation.
