Market trends:
Europe -21% / KTM -19%
USA -45% / KTM -27%
Due to the attractive product range, further market share gains are expected by the end of the business year.
Sales Target: 300 X-Bow Top
The Sportcar Division sold 249 X-Bows in the first three quarters. Sales of some 300 X-Bows are anticipated by the end of the business year. Given the restructuring in the Sportcar Division, capitalized development costs and tool investments totaling EUR 33 million were written off prematurely.
