Update: KTM Likely Just Delayed Its New EV Dirt Bike, and Is Erasing All Mention Of It

Honestly, after the company was supposedly saved a few weeks ago, I thought the fallout of the KTM insolvency chaos would be over. Or, at the very least, be relegated to seemingly minor flare-ups of executives getting axed or a newswire hitting stating Hamilton actually is saving the MotoGP team. I mean, alls good in the hood now, right?

Wrong. After all, this is KTM we're talking about. 

So the FAFO decisions it made in prior years, the same decisions that led to it nearly being relegated to the graveyard of famous marquees, continue impacting the company today as it attempts to right the ship. The latest casualty seemingly being the much-ballyhooed new generation Freeride E electric dirt bike it was set to launch to the public this year, as the company has removed all mention of it from its site. As well as its sites in the UK, Germany, and other locales.
