Boasting all-new, automotiveinspired
features and convenience,
the 2015 Arctic Cat Prowler
1000 XT EPS steps up when
other machines step aside. It’s the
ultimate in side-by-side power,
performance and passenger comfort,
with new-for-2015 bodywork
and rider-friendly engineering.
The new body design features
an automotive style hood with
a 3.0-cu.-ft. box capable of holding
25 lbs. of payload. Matching
the premium Surlyn bodywork is
a new dash and console layout
featuring a large glovebox, center
cubby and dash-mounted shift lever.
The whole design is accented
with a new LED/halogen headlight
system that provides improved
lighting options and pioneering
style points.
With improved occupant
comfort a primary goal for the
redesigned Prowler XT line, Arctic
Cat delivered enriched ergonomics
and expanded occupant space
throughout the machine. All-new
low-profile shoulder and foot
restraints ease vehicle entry and
exit while providing 3.125 in. of
additional shoulder space for
both occupants. A new fully variable
tilt steering wheel provides
an additional 3.0 in. of usable
clearance for the driver’s legs,
while more ergonomically friendly
gas and brake pedals enhance
driving comfort.
The Arctic Cat Prowler 1000 is
powered by the burliest engine
in its class: the H2 V-Twin featuring
EFI and a new closed-loop
engine management system
with improved performance and
mileage. That class-leading power
and torque feed the Duramatic
Automatic transmission, which
offers High/Low/Reverse/Park
and dynamic engine breaking. The
front locking 4WD differential
is activated with an all-in-one
2WD/4WD/Differential rocker
switch button for quick and
simple shifts.
Thanks to its driver-friendly
Variable Assist Electronic Power
Steering (EPS) the hard-working
Prowler changes direction easily
and with confidence, whether
it’s with a cargo box loaded with
600 lbs. of rock, plowing snow or
navigating tough obstacles like
rocks, deep mud or logs. The result
is a light steering input effort,
but with enough feedback so the
driver senses the tire contact
patch in relation to the terrain.
The Prowler XT chassis includes
fully-independent, double Aarm
front and rear suspensions
boasting 10 in. of travel, 10 in.
of ground clearance, and a rearmounted
swaybar for enhanced
ride quality. A rugged, composite
tilting cargo box offering 600 lbs.
of payload capacity and a pickupstyle
tailgate backs up a ROPS-certified
and Wildcat-inspired round
tube canopy. |
