Talaria X3 Review
Talaria X3 (XXX) Review
The Talaria X3 — also sold as the XXX — is the brand's distinctive frame-battery electric dirt bike, built around a 60V pack that spans the frame rather than sitting in a conventional battery box. Here's what it costs, how it's built, and how it compares to the rest of the Talaria range.
What is the Talaria X3 (XXX)?
The Talaria X3 uses a 60V battery design that spans the chassis itself rather than bolting into a separate box, which keeps the bike's centre of gravity low and the chassis genuinely lightweight. The result is a bike Talaria pitches on agility and precise handling for off-road riding rather than outright power, and it sits at £3,235 — the most accessible entry point into the Talaria range.
Talaria X3 vs Talaria Sting R
The X3's closest sibling is the Talaria Sting R MX4, which uses a more conventional 60V 45Ah pack, an 8kW peak motor and sells for £3,735. The Sting R is the more powerful, more mainstream choice; the X3 trades some of that outright performance for a lighter, more agile chassis and a lower price. If raw power and top speed matter most, the Sting R is the safer pick. If you want the lightest, most flickable bike in the Talaria range at the lowest price, the X3 is the one to look at.
Battery and charging
The X3 shares its 60V 38Ah replacement battery with the standard Talaria Sting and Sting L1e, which is good news for parts availability and long-term ownership — it's a common, well-stocked pack rather than a bike-specific one-off. The matching official 60V charger takes the Sting-class pack to a full charge in around 3 hours.
Is the Talaria X3 road legal?
No. Like the standard Sting, the X3 is an off-road, private-land machine only. If you need a road-legal Talaria, the Talaria Sting L1e is the type-approved option, restricted to 28mph and requiring a CBT, insurance and L-plates.
Should you buy a Talaria X3?
The X3 makes sense if you want the lightest, most agile bike in the Talaria lineup and don't need the Sting R's extra power, or if budget is the deciding factor and you want to stay inside the Talaria ecosystem rather than stepping down to a different brand. For riders prioritising top speed and torque, the Sting R or the 72V Sting MX5 Pro are the better fit.
