KTM emerge from financial crisis reporting strong sales of over 100,000 motorcycles sold worldwide in the first half of the 2025.
Attempting to move forward with a focus on putting “the customer at the centre of all our actions”, as the Austrian manufacturer emerges from its own financial crisis KTM reports the first half of 2025 has seen 50,286 motorcycles delivered to dealers and importers and quotes “over 100,000 motorcycles” sold to customers in the same period.
In its challenging time, KTM AG can still look back on a successful first half year, a press release on July 8, 2025 states. With 100,391 motorcycles sold to end customers and 50,286 units delivered to dealers and importers worldwide, the company exceeded its own expectations.
“The last six months have shown that the support of the motorcycle community for the KTM brand is unbroken.” Says CEO Gottfried Neumeister. “Our innovative spirit, our unique know-how and our passion are responsible for our strong market position - over 100,000 motorcycles sold in a challenging first half of the year show that our bikes remain popular all over the world and that we are back on the right track.”
In addition to the sales figures, further positive news can be reported: KTM was able to significantly reduce its inventories. In addition, the entire supply chain has been successfully reactivated.
KTM intensifies recruitment both in Austria and internationally
Qualified specialists and managers are being sought throughout the company, particularly at the headquarters in Austria.
“If the last few months have shown us one thing: only because of our employees, we are that strong. KTM is growing again and is therefore also intensively looking for enthusiastic employees for all Austrian and international locations. Anyone who wants to play an active role in shaping the company will find a place with us,” emphasizes Gottfried Neumeister.
KTM is looking for the best talents worldwide and therefore offers its applicants an international environment as well as support with relocations and their start in the region.
Focus on Customer satisfaction and quality
KTM is defining its future journey. The focus is on customer satisfaction, quality and long-term sustainable success. Listening to its customers is key. With initiatives such as "Orange Blood" and the participatory "Orange Board", KTM wants to actively involve customers.
A 15-member committee was put together from over 5,000 applications, in which customers are able to give feedback to the management and openly exchange views on key topics. The aim is to improve and drive forward practical innovations, focus on customer needs and pick up on future industry trends at an early stage.
The newly established Dealer Excellence Center supports the global dealer network and contributes even to stronger customer loyalty.
“Only if we put the customer at the center of all our actions and focus on quality and differentiation, it will be reflected in the future economic success of our company”, concludes Gottfried Neumeister.
