When it comes to mopeds from Austria, every motorbike enthusiast is sure to think of Puch. However, our eastern neighbour was also home to other renowned moped and motorbike manufacturers in its heyday that are still remembered today. KTM Motor-Fahrzeugbau KG is certainly one of them. We have KTM's engineers and designers to thank for the endearing Foxi moped, the reliable Hobby model and the GP40 motorbike. The Austrian two-wheeler manufacturer also took over the final assembly of the famous Pony mopeds from the manufacturer Amsler & Co. AG. We introduce you to the manufacturer, its history and its most famous mopeds in more detail.

Company founding and early years
Kraftfahrzeuge, Trunkenpolz, Mattighofen, or KTM for short, was the name of the locksmith's workshop that Hans Trunkenpolz founded in the aforementioned Austrian town in 1934. The company founder initially worked personally on bicycles, motorised two-wheelers and motor vehicles of all kinds to get them back in shape. The business flourished and the company founder soon entered the vehicle trade. Trunkenpolz sold the popular DKW motorbikes and Opel cars. A complete success and the rise of his young company continued seamlessly. Even the terrible Second World War did nothing to change this. However, instead of selling two-wheelers and cars, the later moped manufacturer now repaired diesel engines for the German army during the war years. Thanks to these orders, the company in Mattighofen continued to grow; by the end of the war in 1945, the previously small metalworking shop already employed 35 people and continued to expand in the years that followed. The establishment of its own foundry also allowed the company to enter into the production of engine components. This proved to be a real stroke of luck, as the bread and butter business, which at that time was the overhaul and repair of engines, declined sharply from the 1950s onwards.
