Gas Gas launches two new 700cc street legal models in 2022
Gas Gas, a sister brand of KTM and Husqvarna, could arrive fashionably late at the new model party in 2022, especially by bringing the street legal Enduro Gas ES700 and Supermoto SM700 to the US and global markets. ..This was reported by Motorcycle.comBased on “Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) Decoder Information submitted to the United States by KTM” on February 16, 2022.
The Cover letter A document addressed to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) presents these two lists of the GasGas “GG” brand “22/23” model year as the first “street legal” model for a Spanish manufacturer. Its trial, MX and rally raid machines.
Of course, GasGas’ dual sports machine was expected to appear after KTM and Husqvarna’s parent company Pierer Mobility Group purchased it in 2019 and continuously pollinated its own brand.But what we were expecting Two 800cc modelsOne is a naked street bike and the other is an adventure touring model, advertised in a leaked investor document in late 2019.
However, judging from the model names in this new document, these intents have been removed in favor of the enduro “ES” model. This undoubtedly shares much with KTM’s 690 Enduro R and Husqvarna’s 701 Enduro (the latter is not currently available in the United States. 2022), and the “SM” Gas Gas Bike is KTM’s 690 SMCR and Husqvarna’s 701 Supermoto. It will be a spin-off.
The report also shows that two dealers in GasGas’ home country, Spain, have already posted ES and SM bikes on their respective websites, giving a clear view of the future. Both bikes are listed at € 10,749 in euros, which, based on today’s conversion, is US $ 12,036, from the KTM North America $ 12,499 base unit price for both the 690 SMC R, 690 Enduro R, and Husky’s 701 Supermoto. Also about $ 500 cheaper. .. Another dealer, this is in Ukraine, the price of the GasGas SM model is even closer to existing peers, UAH 375,020 (US $ 12,562) and ES, UAH 371,960 UAH (US $ 12,459).
Therefore, it is safe to assume that future Gas Gas Super Moto and Enduro prices will be in the same region as the siblings. Of course, the motorcycle itself is similar to the KTM and Husqvarna equivalents, but not the same. Differences can include suspension tuning, electronics, ergonomics, and of course graphics and colors.
We already know which brand Sammy Hagar will choose.
It seems that these Gas Gas models, which have not been officially announced yet, will appear on the showroom floor this year a little later in the 2022 season, but Gas Gas First ever victory To secure a position in the mind and spirit of dual sports riders around the world with the Dakar 2022. Because if the Red Brand is enough for two-time Dakar Champion Sam Sunderland, it’s enough for us too.
