VIDEO
The Alpinestars KMX-5 V3 Kart Racing Suit is built for kart racers who want modern protection, lightweight comfort, and serious performance on track. Updated to meet the latest FIA 8877-2022 Grade 1 karting homologation, the KMX-5 V3 delivers the safety, mobility, and breathability needed for competitive kart racing.
This newest version of the KMX-5 is designed to help drivers stay cooler, move more freely, and stay focused during long race sessions. With advanced dual-layer construction, strategic ventilation, stretch panels, and an ergonomic race fit, the Alpinestars KMX-5 V3 is a strong choice for drivers upgrading their karting gear.
Where Speed Meets Innovation
The Alpinestars KMX-5 V3 is more than a basic kart suit. It is designed around the needs of kart racers who deal with heat, movement, and intense driving conditions every time they hit the track. Lightweight materials help reduce fatigue, while laser-cut perforations and breathable mesh zones help manage airflow when the race gets hot.
Pre-curved arms and legs give the suit a more natural driving position, helping reduce bunching and restriction inside the kart. The result is a suit that feels more comfortable in the seat while still delivering the protection expected from a modern FIA-approved kart racing suit.

The anatomical design helps the suit move with the driver instead of fighting against the seated racing position. Stretch panels and floating arm construction allow better range of motion through steering inputs, braking, and cornering.
