The KD 250 X is arguably the civil version of Komodo KIT, which can be seen in its fairing shape which is more angular than KD 250 AT. It can be said that the KD 250 X is a facelift of the KD 250 AT. The volume of the cabin is enlarged, so that passengers can move more freely. The dashboard configuration has been changed, the seat uses a new seat which is claimed to be safer and more comfortable than previous versions. Even so, the engine and other physical components do not change.[5]
