Features may include:

• ALPHA ONE SINGLE-BEAM REAR SUSPENSION

Arctic Cat’s revolutionary single-beam rear suspension changes the game for mountain snowmobiles. The unique monorail design sheds snow to keep your sled light and equalizes floatation across the width of the track. ALPHA ONE offers enhanced maneuverability, giving you tighter turns than ever before.

• ASCENDER PLATFORM

The Ascender platform brings a lighter, more forgiving, responsive, and durable chassis that delivers next-level backcountry performance and handling.

• 8000-SERIES C-TEC2 ENGINE

This twin-cylinder, 165-class horsepower engine will carry you through the toughest climbs and the biggest jumps all day long, all while packing a serious punch.

• AMS FRONT SUSPENSION

The Arctic Mountain Suspension (AMS) is built specifically to navigate through deep snow. With lightweight spindles and a precision engineered suspension geometry, this suspension is designed specifically with mountain riding in mind.

• FOX® 1.5 ZERO QS3 COIL-OVER SKI SHOCKS

With three compression settings, the FOX® 1.5 ZERO QS3 shocks are easy to adjust and neutralize any bumps in the terrain with coil-over springs. With shocks like this, rough rides are a thing of the past.

• ADAPT™ CVT SYSTEM

With its lightweight, narrow design that increases performance and belt life, as well as the industry's only self-adjusting clutch, the ADAPT CVT system provides better throttle response, smoother power delivery, and a ride like no other.

• POWER CLAW™ TRACK

Unlock the backcountry with the Power Claw track, a lightweight track that delivers the ultimate deep snow traction and performance. It's easier than ever to slice straight through deep snow.

• REINFORCED RUNNING BOARDS

With more air comes more impact. That's why the Hardcore's running boards are reinforced with an extrusion for extra rigidity.

• LED HEADLIGHT

A premium LED headlight is crucial for those night rides. Equipped with both high and low-beams, the headlight casts an LED light pattern with great range and width.

• ADJUSTABLE SKI STANCE

With an adjustable 35.5-37.5-in. ski stance, you can easily react to whatever challenges the mountain may throw at you. It only takes a few seconds to change, so you'll be up and moving in no time.
