KTM Macina Cross 400

The innovative Bosch technology, which is installed in the engine, guarantees special constant support.

In order the auxiliary engine operates consistently, three sensors steadily measure the current speed, torque and current pedal frequency.

The advantage: the engine is particularly economical, which affects the distance. The cockpit on a handlebar shows which driving mode is set.

The eco mode saves a lot of power; the standard is a tour mode. The sport mode provides dynamic driving, while the second sporty mode has the highest acceleration. The range is also displayed. Especially practical: you have an overview of the possible remaining range - depending on the driving mode.
