u was closer than 1.5 Meters between this Bikes + u accelerate!!!!!!!! why !!????? this roads are only for 40- max 60 Km/H!!! where did you get your license in bangladesh !!???
I love turbo sounds. What you lose in volume compared with n/a cars you gain in character from the turbos. Forced induction cars are just more interesting and characterful.
I was passenger in one on the Nürburgring and wow it's very fast around that track. Really nimble and stable. The seats look uncomfortable as hell but they are actually really comfy and very supportive. Great work by KTM
For a brand that isn't as big as the more popular ones like Lambo or Ferrari, KTM brought this out and it stole my heart from first sight. That edgy and sharp design always hits harder than any other. Definitely Car of the Year worthy. I mean who doesn't like a road legal race car?
I might be inclined to agree but that steering... so terrifying. It looked like he was trying to turn it INTO that oncoming car... but no just trying to make a slight lane change... That steering is WAY too vague for a car of that performance level. Go talk (or watch interviews) with Actual professional drivers, Aka people who do it at speed for a living, not just someone who has insurance to do it for reviews. Not a good feeling to have in a car with that power at all.
i cannot imagine the high you experienced from the roof opening/closing to reaching the speed limit on the autobahn...this car is something out of a fantasy ❤🔥
I was this days old when I discovered you publish the 100-200 top scores in the description and link the videos next to each time... I've always wanted to see the full list! :D
I asked if they are bringing it to the US. They said I could buy the racecar version. After looking at the maintenance costs compared to my Cayman 718 S, it is actually pretty reasonable on replacement costs!
@@philosoraptor777 What you hear in the video is the sound of the excess boost escaping when he lifts his foot off the throttle, wich is let out by the blow off valve or diverter valve. The wastegate is located in the hot part of the turbo and lets excess exhaust gasses out to regulate the boost and to prevent the turbo from overspinning, to my knoledge, it has no distinct sound. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
@@tetoqx it has other expensive parts other than the Audi engine you know. So price will add up. It’s up to you if you want a rare car like this. Literally nothing else on the road like it especially at the at price.
This is incredible piece of engineering! Would be honnor to meet whole KTM team and listen their story of how was this stunning machine brought to life! My huge congratulations to their achievement that is out of this world! BTW does this road-going-formula have flexible susspension that lifts belly up for getting over speed humps? They are over 10 inches in our town....
Single seat off road only track day toy would be amazing! Especially if they simplify it and make some of the CF bits out of regular fiberglass so they can cut the price a bit as a result. Also I know it would be slower but I would take mine with three pedals and an h shifter like a T.50, please and thank you!
this also has 96 liters of fuel capacity, great for long distance trips (if you can bare with uncomfy seats) and, even more important, longer track sessions between refuels
An amazing car with a full carbon chassis! 🏁It clearly possesses a rigidity different from cars made of metal. When this car is running at high speeds, it is evident that it experiences a very strong downforce. I believe that Dallara is heavily involved in its development.
This and Praga Bohemia are the recipe for a supercar....very very lightweight and proven engine inside that is reliable. KTM moved the game one step ahead
I previously owned a xbow r. When you crash, be live me, those 4 point harnesses save your life. There is nothing “soft” in a carbon monocoque. I agree, a pain in the ass to buckle up every time. But it’s necessary.
Amazing thing 😍 I have KTM mountain bike, their motorcycles are also famous, but before this car came out, I had no idea they are making cars as well 🤯
Fun fact: KTM bicycles have the same Logo as the motos, they're also have there HQs in the same small town. BUT the bike manufacturer is owned by a completly different company which has nothing to do with motobike's producer. 😉
My fantasy SUV will have a a center seated driver with two or three seats position behind him and plenty of toggle switches.. this car IS SPECTACULAR !!!
This is the coolest car made by any big brand that i have seen in a long time. I would love to see big corporate Brands doing small boutique Enthusiast projects like this more n more and once they see that the demand is there they can probably just start mass-producing Enthusiast cars that don't have to be compromised for the majority consumer Market
Your videos are always fun and watching these things go like mad on the autobahn is a treat. I have one issue. 17+minute video and you never see the front of the car?? Still have no real idea of what it looks like from many angles.
Thanks for the video! I was living near Stuttgart and when I saw part of this video in IG I could recognize part of the Autobahn.. the A81 from Singen to Stuttgart. They gave me good memories. I had an E36 328Ci and sometimes I put it at 240Km/h it was sensational feeling! Thanks for the video, because it gave me good remembering!
where is this piece of road thats shown in the ''test drive'' part of the video ??? 😅 i need to go there and drive around because that looks fun !!!! 🔥🔥
And to think that you can easily push the 5 cylindres from Audi to 1200 to 1500 HP without any problems🤯 This engine is the jewel of the crown just as the 2JZ 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
started indicating before he checked his mirror. you're supposed to only indicate when it's clear to move over. but the Renault didn't check his mirror, just indicated, and only then noticed the KTM barreling towards him at 200 km/h.
That's a spectacular car. The hatch opening canopy must have been inspired by the Batmobile. But the canopy hatch opening sequence needs to be dampered. The window needs a sliding section for the drive-thru. It needs side mirrors, and the Taillights need covers.
Reminds of the “Aguilla” kit car from the 70’s. It had the same roof lifting mechanism. It was a VW bug underneath though. Not exactly high performance!
I had an RS3, and I can tell then engine in this sounds far more uncorked. I'd imagine having it 8 inches from your head and bolted to a carbon tub really turns up the wick. It's a shame they're not in the US and they're just low production numbers.
It's definitely cool and different. Wasn't sure of the cost. However, money aside, i think the T50 or McMurtry would definitely have to be cars of the years! I know all very different cars but if i had to choose definitely over this. Also probably closer to an F1 car. T50 even sounds as good or even better than an f1 car.
Give me the choice and it'd be the easiest decision ever. Who would choose the Speirling or this over the T50? This is a cool car(looks nicer than the T50 too), but the T50 is a pure driver's car. It's special in all the right ways, there's no real compromise anywhere. Manual transmission, sweet spot horsepower, naturally aspirated, V12, insane rpms, drivable on a daily basis...no compromise in terms of making the perfect driver's car. The McMurty Speirling is a track toy and does some cool things, but an EV just wouldn't cut it for me. Compare that electric wheedle and the noise of the fan...with the scream of an 11k(?) rpm V12...it's like comparing non-alcoholic beer with a hundred year old malt whiskey. And this car is brutally cool looking, and seems like a lot of fun, but again there's no contest against the T50. The only area where the T50 loses is in looks; Gordon Murray's cars have never been great looking. But then again that Speirling looks like a chibi Batmobile(not a compliment), so it's got the beating of it there too.

Exactly how is that evident??
I hope someone builds the motor in one of these and runs 1200+hp, thing would be amazing.
The car has enough chassis to handle the power.
it would be insane, it would be a ktm from hell
But could you put that much power to the road?
Prachtige wagen, en goede keuze van de weg! Prachtig daar
The mirrors need to be like an ultra wide angle view
Cool video! Really crazy cool looking car! Idk why when i watch this types of vids the speed feels like insane while it is normally ok! Thanks!
Wow the reflections of the dashboard on the windshield are too much
Now imagine the T50 with 750hp at 950kg 12000 rpm 1500kg down force.
It's the ultimate engineering masterpiece
This, the new lotus emira, and the type r are my fav sports car for the moment.
Good taste
It uses a sequential transmission not the dq500 dual clutch from Audi , that's why the shifts are not dct sharp
Cool review! This KTM is like a motorcycle with 4 wheels!

eh.. naw no not rly

16:05 what did he do ? 🤔
started indicating before he checked his mirror. you're supposed to only indicate when it's clear to move over. but the Renault didn't check his mirror, just indicated, and only then noticed the KTM barreling towards him at 200 km/h.
1:00 called a "canopy"
That Audi inline 5 is a very powerful engine. I love it!
It looks badass tbh 🤷🏻♀️🔥 and that color 😍😍 it looks like a baby lambo tbh
Good luck Martin! 🥳
Price tag?
That's a spectacular car. The hatch opening canopy must have been inspired by the Batmobile.
But the canopy hatch opening sequence needs to be dampered. The window needs a sliding section for the drive-thru. It needs side mirrors, and the Taillights need covers.
the controls and eye-wheel thought that machine has is fascinating, its like the sweetspot between a plane and a lotus view.
5:26 the first thing you notice..... (what i expected him to say:) ..... is that everyone looks at your car
when you flip over and the fire starts you start to question how cool the canopy is
3:46 the “door” concept is cool but also quite dangerous
Dangerous? If you're in the wheelchair. But otherwise great. Much more strong of a construction than with "just" doors.
It reminds me of a Sterling kit car
At $300K it seems almost axiomatic that none will sell considering what can be had for that same amount.
doesn't seem that bad for a full carbon race car? assume you're referring to GT3 RS, boring compared to this although maybe technically better
I think this KTM might be more fun to drive than the usual famous hypercar brands......
Also Martin in the next pov video,"What's up..."
😂😂😂
Absolutely fantastic
Where was the beginning of the video filmed?
Reminds of the “Aguilla” kit car from the 70’s. It had the same roof lifting mechanism. It was a VW bug underneath though. Not exactly high performance!
Is there air conditioner??
Seeing the thumbnail i thought 500hp is ok it'll only weigh 800kg......1100kg 😬 the last xbow was well under a ton.
It does seem like it’s pretty heavy considering how extreme it is. Weights more than the Alfa 4c.
@@gtbweo
a Lotus Caterham ktm etc that's over 900kg is utterly pointless their strong point was being well under a tonne .
It seems as if the steering ratio was strangely slow, but this may just be an illusion.
Yes, i think for track use is better
someone should do a comparison between this and the Dallara Stradale
the valkyrie is this but better and still street legal so their is something better
Finally a super car that actually looks like its from the era it came out in
Just found you and glad I have. Great content and not 'the me show'. Thanks.
Best car review person .
+Driving skills.🕶️
He gives the push that every car lover wanted to see and the sound of the turbo at the end stu stuu🤧🤤 .♥️
And the beautiful thing about the motor they chose, there is a good aftermarket. Get ready for 1200hp ktm
The orgasm of driving the KTM stops by the French at 16:06🤣
7:20 I can feel the feedback coming inside of me
love how that kid on the bike was just constantly turned around to watch the car
how does it compare to the lotus v6 exige that you tested? comfort, interior, speed, handling etc etc
I had an RS3, and I can tell then engine in this sounds far more uncorked. I'd imagine having it 8 inches from your head and bolted to a carbon tub really turns up the wick. It's a shame they're not in the US and they're just low production numbers.
Love the visor type door ... What about rollover type situation.
You didn’t watch the beginning of the video obviously.
The side windows will pop out in case of a roll over. It was the first thing I thought of as well when you see him open it up. Super cool rig though.
I’ve seen those Audi 5s tuned to 1000hp! They’re crazy.
This against a Bac Mono, which is your favorite ?
Ich mag Deine Ehrlichkeit ❣️👌🏼😊

Have been waiting for this one
@dailydrivenexotics needs one of these, their car game is not the same as it was
Pretty much one of the best sports cars out there
Omg, what a machine! Absolutely stunning! 👌
facts
for me still the BAC mono was the bst on the channel. ever
I agree. That video made me poop my pants with excitement right along with him lol
This is more "practical". You can carry another person and 150 liters of luggage.
I’ve never seen this version of the x-bow. This is Awsome and the door hatch gives me the biggest Batman vibes. This in Matt black, call me Batman
Crazy car's❤❤❤❤❤
What a glorious piece of kit....
The roof opening door was first found on the Saab aero x concept
Pure joy and thanks! I am 6’8” 285 lbs can I fit in this?
It's definitely cool and different. Wasn't sure of the cost. However, money aside, i think the T50 or McMurtry would definitely have to be cars of the years! I know all very different cars but if i had to choose definitely over this. Also probably closer to an F1 car. T50 even sounds as good or even better than an f1 car.
T.50 is the hypercar of the decade...but it will be hard for AutoTopNL to get one for a review. Still I hope that it happens
This is no where near the t.50 lol that’s like saying a civic si vs an aventador in terms of price, status etc.
Give me the choice and it'd be the easiest decision ever. Who would choose the Speirling or this over the T50? This is a cool car(looks nicer than the T50 too), but the T50 is a pure driver's car.

The McMurty Speirling is a track toy and does some cool things, but an EV just wouldn't cut it for me. Compare that electric wheedle and the noise of the fan...with the scream of an 11k(?) rpm V12...it's like comparing non-alcoholic beer with a hundred year old malt whiskey. And this car is brutally cool looking, and seems like a lot of fun, but again there's no contest against the T50. The only area where the T50 loses is in looks; Gordon Murray's cars have never been great looking. But then again that Speirling looks like a chibi Batmobile(not a compliment), so it's got the beating of it there too.
Do they make them Right Hand Drive?
Cool, KTM has the budget for a full car body now.
Awesome car. I dunno why KTM didn't use a different name though. It's nothing at all like the other KTM X-Bow.
