For all of us on bikes…

When you think of Arctic Cat, you think about snowmobiles and all terrain vehicles. But the US company has a lineup of Recreational Off-Road (ROV) vehicles as well, and the latest addition is this – the Wildcat, 1000cc, 90HP, two-seater boredom-destroyer. It features long travel suspension of the same kind as the off-road race buggies, full perimeter exoskeleton high strength alloy steel frame design (huh, that’s a long one and the first in ROV’s) and 14 inch tires.

Electric steering is monitors all kinds of parameters in order to deliver just about the right amount of assistance while turning the wheel. LED highlights and taillights are nice touch while the all-new Wildcat gets two paint color choices: Black Metallic or Arctic Green Metallic
