Priority fixes for ktm.com

Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.

Priority 1 · Accelerate
HTML compressed
Observed: The homepage HTML (134 KB) was delivered without gzip, Brotli or zstd compression.
Why it matters: Compression usually shrinks HTML several times over, so the first bytes of the page arrive sooner on slow connections.
What to do: Enable Brotli or gzip for text responses (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, SVG) at the CDN or origin.
95% of Cars & Automotive peers do this. Limit: Read from the homepage response only; other pages or regions may send different headers.

Priority 2 · Accelerate
Modern image formats in use
Observed: The homepage had 10 images and none used WebP or AVIF.
What to do: Serve WebP or AVIF with a JPEG or PNG fallback, either through an image CDN or by generating both formats at build time.
47% of Cars & Automotive peers do this.

Priority 3 · Harden
DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject
Observed: The DMARC policy for ktm.com was p=none, which asks receivers to take no action on failing mail.
What to do: Publish DMARC with p=none and a reporting address first, fix any legitimate senders that fail SPF or DKIM alignment, then move to quarantine and finally reject.
41% of Cars & Automotive peers do this.

Priority 4 · Accelerate
No render-blocking scripts in <head>
Observed: The homepage <head> loaded 1 external script without async or defer.
What to do: Add defer to scripts that need the DOM, async to independent ones such as analytics, or move them to the end of the body.
45% of Cars & Automotive peers do this.
