Originally the company planned a production of 500 units a year, but because of high demand the company has increased production to 1000 cars a year and is building a new plant near Graz for it.[2]

The car will be priced at £37,189 in the UK, this will put the car in the same price range and in competition with the Ariel Atom[3]

The KTM X-Bow can be considered an Exoskeleton car like the Ariel Atom
$72,000 USD...ouch
