    951cc, EFI, SOHC 4-stroke, 4-valve, V-twin, liquid cooled engine
  • The “H” in H2 stands for Hemi. The hemispherical-shaped head creates more complete, more efficient combustion for performance-winning power
  • An Arctic Cat produced performance engine built in the state-of-the-art St. Cloud manufacturing facility
  • Electronic Fuel Injection aids in perfect starting no matter what altitude or temperature changes.
  • Liquid cooling system with high-capacity radiator and thermostatically-controlled cooling fan provides consistent engine operating temperatures
  • The Duramatic Automatic Transmission has a long-life maintenance-free belt that withstands the harshest of conditions.

Arctic Cat 1000 H2 ATV Chassis/Suspension:

  • Thunder Cat 1000 ATV Suspension

    Machined Aluminum Wheels - All new 12” machined aluminum wheel design has an optimized scrub radius minimizing the rider steering effort.
  • Positive Shifting - A new shift detent spring in the lever linkage allows for improved positive shifting
  • New Headlight Bulb Sockets - The right-hand headlight bulb sockets have been redesigned to eliminate the bulb popping out, decreasing the chance of the headlight housing filling with moisture.
  • Fully Independent Suspension (FIS) How it works with or without a swaybar - Arctic Cat ATVs have an optional sway bar available as an accessory purchase through your authorized dealer. Similar to any off-road 4x4 vehicle, eliminating the sway bar, lets the 10” of front or rear Fully Independent Suspension articulate through the full range of suspension travel. This increased articulation provides full tire contact in all types of off-camber terrain. The addition of the sway bar will impact the traction capabilities; however, it will enhance flatter cornering in aggressive trail riding
  • Performance Tuned Chassis - When you sit on the Thundercat, it will squat roughly 2 inches (depending on rider size) while maintaining Arctic Cat’s class leading 11” of
    ground clearance and 10” of suspension travel. This ride-in calibration lowers center of gravity for precise cornering
  • Performance Minded Ergonomics - The seat on the Thundercat has been lowered approximately one inch to reduce the riders center of gravity along with giving an improved sense of sitting “In” the machine instead of “On” it.
  • Industry Leading Ground Clearance - 11” of ground clearance enhances the ability to navigate through mud or over large rocks, logs, and other objects encountered in rough terrain
  • Large Capacity SpeedRacks - Industry leading weight capacity and overall cargo carrying surface area allows 100 lb carrying capacity on the front rack and 200 lbs. on the rear

    • Allows very quick installation and removal of a wide variety of Arctic Cat exclusive accessories without the need for tools, bloody knuckles or swearing
    • SpeedRack and its accessories add value to the machine and also enhance the efficiency of your hunting, fishing, farming or utility chores
  • 2-Inch Automotive Style Receiver Hitch - This feature allows the consumer to remove the hitch from their 2” automotive receiver and install it into the ATV’s receiver hitch
  • Floating Hydraulic Disc Brakes - Low maintenance, positive stopping power in either dry or wet conditions
  • Adjustable Shocks - Set the spring preload (5 rear positions, 5 front positions) on the shocks to tailor the ride to individual riding styles, terrains and loads Electric Shift 2-to 4-Wheel Drive with new Electric Front Locking
  • Differential - Full-lock front differential transfers engine torque to both front wheels when selected for added traction with an all new electronic rocker switch located on the gauge pod while 4wd/2wd switch is located on right-side handlebar for quick, convenient shifting in-and-out of four-wheel drive.
  • Spike Load Dampener - To handle the 1000 H2’s enormous power output, Arctic Cat has engineered a rear differential to deliver maximum power to the tires with minimum driveline wear.

Additional 1000 H2 ATV Features:

  • Stylish SE - All SE models have an all-new machined aluminum wheel and are available in Competition Silver painted body panels.
  • Digital Instrument Pod - Displays up to 14 critical operation information indicators including: clock/hour meter, fuel level, mode button, set/reset button, odometer/trip, gear position, speedometer/tachometer, needle display, differential lock, drive select, high beam, battery condition, temperature and oil pressure
  • Tires - When your utility quad needs better acceleration and overall performance, the Razr 4-Speed is your answer. The lightweight design and radial construction provide ideal traction in all conditions - without adding extra weight. Designed specifically for the Thundercat with a stiffer sidewall, the 25x8R12 front and 25x10R12 rear are the perfect tire for Utility Quad riders looking for more trail performance. The Aggressive tread pattern with radial construction, breaks the barrier between Sport and Lightweight design reducing steering effort for quick handling.
