With the success of the Duke models, the Austrian motorcycle manufacturer is all set to further expand their presence in India. KTM is planning to increase its production and is keen to make India as one of its important export market.
The Enduro line of motorcycles are essentially offroaders that are built on the Duke platform. The Enduro motorcycle line starts from the 250cc 4-stroke 250 XCF-W to the top end 690 Enduro R.
| Enduro (4-strokes) | Engine displacement | Weight |
| 2014 KTM 500 EXC | 510cc | 111.5 kg |
| 2014 KTM 250 XC‑F | 249cc | 105 kg |
| 2014 KTM 350 XC‑F | 349cc | 102.1 kg |
| 2014 KTM 250 XCF-W | 249cc | 105.5 kg |
| 2014 KTM 350 XCF‑W | 349cc | 107 kg |
| 2014 KTM 450 XC‑W | 449cc | 111 kg |
| 2014 KTM 500 XC‑W | 510cc | 111 kg |
| KTM 690 Enduro R 2014 | 690cc | 139 kg |
KTM might not bring the entire lineup to India but at least the lower displacement models will be on offer. With Triumph launching their Daytona 675R and Ninja 650R ruling the Supersport segment, the Enduro 690 R, if launched, will surely set the relatively silent 600cc market abuzz.
