2026 KTM 300XC-W Hard Enduro

With Hard Enduro icon Manuel Lettenbichler already well on his way to a fifth world championship, in addition to Trystan Hart recently clinching his fifth-career U.S. Hard Enduro Championship, their weapon of choice needs little introduction. For 2026, the KTM 300 XC-W HARDENDURO boasts key updates, with suspension, cooling, and overall design receiving significant refinements, set to take its domination of torturous terrain even further.

Since its launch in 2024, the KTM 300 XC-W HARDENDURO has become the premier model in the KTM Enduro lineup, bringing KTM Factory Racing expertise and championship-winning pedigree directly to the dealership floor.

Ranking as the ultimate in Enduro competition motorcycles, the 2026 KTM 300 XC-W HARDENDURO receives a fresh graphics package, which features KTM orange accentuated by a white and black color palette, a gloss orange frame, and signature orange anodized KTM PowerParts.

However, it is upgrades to the hardware that will excite hardcore racing fans the most, starting with updates to the 48 mm WP XACT Closed Cartridge spring fork, including the preload base-valve adjusters and an updated WP XPLOR PDS rear shock to keep things in balance.

The fork receives new damping settings and new, lighter, shorter springs, as well as a new pressure reservoir that has been adapted to the new geometry of the spring support. A new one-piece hydro stop rounds out the updates to the front fork, which also results in an overall weight saving of 200 grams.

On the fueling front, a new protection cap is added to the CPC fuel connector, which not only provides added protection against any outside damage, but also prevents dirt from entering the sides of the connector.

The cooling system has received some upgrades by way of a new radiator cap with a standard thread, allowing for easier and faster opening, with a radiator fan fitted as standard equipment.

As its nameplate suggests, the 2026 KTM 300 XC-W HARD ENDURO is built to tackle the toughest terrain, featuring a collection of signature HARD ENDEURO-specific parts, setting it apart from the rest of the KTM Enduro range.
