De KTM E-Duke is een elektrische concept/prototype motorfiets die KTM presenteerde om hun visie op elektrische stedelijke mobiliteit te demonstreren, gebaseerd op het populaire Duke naked bike-platform. Het werd ontwikkeld als onderdeel van KTM's bredere strategie voor elektrische voertuigen, naast hun Freeride E-serie. De E-Duke is voor zover ik weet nog niet in volledige massaproductie gegaan. Hij bestond voornamelijk als een proof-of-concept om de marktinteresse in een geëlektrificeerde Duke-line-up te peilen.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Electric Range Reality
The KTM E-Duke concept is designed for urban commuting with a range suited to city riding, but real-world range can drop significantly in cold weather or aggressive riding. Always verify battery health before purchasing a used unit.
Battery Degradation Watch
Lithium-ion battery packs on electric motorcycles typically retain 70-80% capacity after 500+ charge cycles, making battery condition the single most important factor affecting both usability and resale value.
Resale Value Caution
Electric motorcycles, including KTM's electric models, tend to depreciate faster than combustion equivalents due to rapid technology advancements and buyer uncertainty around battery replacement costs, which can run into thousands of dollars.
Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"A brilliant city scrapper that demands honest range expectations from buyers."
$4,500-$7,500 usedThe KTM E-Duke is a genuinely interesting machine if you know what you're signing up for. It's essentially a Duke 125/390 platform with an electric drivetrain slotted in, which means the chassis manners are predictably sharp and flickable. Urban riding is where it absolutely shines — the instant torque makes filtering and traffic feel effortless, and that signature KTM aggression carries over surprisingly well. Buying used, you need to interrogate the battery health hard. Ask for charge cycle data if the previous owner has it, because a hammered battery on these is an expensive headache. Check the charging port condition and test both slow and fast charge functionality before handing over any cash. Early examples had some software quirks worth investigating too. Range anxiety is real here — expect 60-80 miles real-world depending on how enthusiastically you ride. This isn't a machine for touring or long commutes. It's a city weapon, full stop. If you understand that limitation going in, it's genuinely brilliant fun.
