MotorSport KTM Pvt. Ltd. is set to organize the Endurance Trophy Season-1 on August 1 and 2 as a two-day rally focused on endurance driving, navigation, and safe road use.

The event will cover a route of about 500 km. The first leg will run from Kathmandu to Pokhara, and the return leg from Pokhara to Kathmandu the next day. According to the announcement, participants will be judged on stamina, time management, decision-making, navigation, and responsible driving, not only speed.

What the event means for vehicle users

For Nepali vehicle buyers and road users, the rally puts the spotlight on skills that matter in day-to-day driving: - Safe driving discipline - Navigation and route planning - Long-distance vehicle handling - Time and fuel management

The organizers say the event is also intended to promote tourism and a more responsible driving culture in Nepal.

TV and digital coverage

Action Sports TV will serve as the official broadcast partner and will produce the event as an eight-episode television series.

Each episode is expected to cover the competitors’ journey, scenic locations, behind-the-scenes activity, participant reactions, organizer interviews, and sponsor involvement. The final episode will include the live award ceremony.

The event will also be pushed across digital platforms through daily highlight videos, reels, documentaries, drone footage, photography, influencer collaborations, and sponsor-focused content.

For Nepali auto enthusiasts, the Endurance Trophy Season-1 is less about a product launch and more about how motorsport can support road safety awareness, adventure travel, and a stronger motoring culture in the country.
