2012 Arctic Cat Wildcat 1000i H.O. |
|
Jul 26, 2011 - 9:52 AM - by 4Nines
|
Inspired by the unforgiving terrain of the Baja 1000, engineered to attack the gnarliest obstacles with precision and control, and crafted in America by a company dedicated to performance and quality, the all-new Arctic Cat Wildcat V-Twin 1000 H.O. debuts as the most potent pure-sport recreational off-road vehicle (ROV) ever built. With industry-leading suspension travel, 13 inches of ground clearance, a full-perimeter frame and the largest displacement engine in its class, the Wildcat is a full-production version of what was previously reserved for off-road race vehicles. “The Wildcat has no equal. Period,” said Claude Jordan, Arctic Cat President and CEO. “Our customers asked for a high-performance side-by-side, and we happily responded with a no-compromise, pure-sport hot rod that redefines what’s possible with a production off-road vehicle.”
SUSPENSION Ultimate Long Travel
The Wildcat can effortlessly hammer through whoops and dunes thanks to a front and rear suspension combination that rivals those used on off-road race buggies.
At the rear is an industry-first 5-point multi-link trailing arm suspension that keeps the tires’ contact patches flat while the suspension moves through its industry-leading 18 inches of travel. The unique 5-point multi-link minimizes camber and axle plunge to soak up the harshest terrain without compromising handling and steering.
The double-wishbone front suspension boasts a best-in-class 17 inches of travel, with geometry that’s optimized for stability and control.
Both the front and rear suspensions are dampened by Walker Evans Racing shocks. Designed from a lifetime of off-road competition and experience and also made in the USA, these remote reservoir shocks are machined from billet aluminum and feature 17-position compression dampening adjustability, dual-rate springs and preload adjustment. They’re calibrated with ample ride-in to keep the Wildcat’s tires on the ground, with consistent dampening for hours of hard riding.
The all-new Duro Kaden 14-in tires were developed specifically for the Wildcat, utilizing an elongated tread pattern designed to extend to the tires shoulder, providing excellent cornering, traction, performance and durability in rough conditions.
CHASSIS Full-Perimeter Exoskeleton
The foundation for the Wildcat’s suspension is a full-perimeter frame that sets a new standard in strength, rigidity and durability. Usually found only in off-road race trucks, the chassis is constructed from High Strength Low Alloy (HSLA) steel with a full-perimeter exoskeleton design that’s a first in the ROV class.
With a 40/60 front/rear weight distribution, the Wildcat’s front... [Read More]

Arctic Cat WildCat becomes official, land page is live! |

We first saw a quick preview of Arctic Cat's rumored sport side by side back in April with a quick youtube video leak. The green machine sported looks of a very aggressive UTV that would surely rival the likes of a Polaris RZR or Can-am Commander. Fast forward a few months later and another picture leaked of the rumored Wildcat UTV claiming victory on top of the sand dunes. Although possibly a photochop, the teaser image showed a very clean shot of the front and had many of us yearning for more.
This weekend Arctic Cat has officially confirmed the new side by side dubbed the WildCat with a new sign up landing page. We can soon expect more details, photos, videos, pricing and most important actual SPECS! The page also notes that the more sign-ups they receive, the more information will be unveiled. So do all us a favor and head directly over there and sign up by following this link: Arctic Cat Wildact Email Sign-Ups
The latest rumors suggest dealer pre-orders could begin as early as August 2nd. Who's ready to place their order?!

ARCTIC'S ROUGH ROAD // After years of shrinking ATV sales, Arctic Cat has high hopes! |
|
Jun 30, 2011 - 9:05 AM - by 4Nines

Arctic Cat Inc. is playing catch-up in the race for thrill-seeking buyers of side-by-side recreational vehicles, the only hot segment of an otherwise tepid all-terrain vehicle industry.
Its one vehicle in the market, which it entered in 2005, is a workhorse, used for off-road hauling, towing and, occasionally, recreational riding. Even though it bills the Prowler as a "work-and-play" option, the Thief River Falls-based manufacturer has been left in the dust by competitors' growing number of flashy sport models for racing or joyriding over hills and sand dunes.
"While they tried to promote it as sport-rec, it just didn't hit the sport crowd like they hoped it would," said Doug Siddens, whose Texas-based Forum Foundry Inc. oversees about 25 powersports online forums, including the 61,000-member ArcticChat.com.
The miscalculation has been costly. Arctic's ATV sales dropped from $431 million in 2007 to just $181 million for its fiscal year ended March 31. Its total sales, which include snowmobiles and parts, garments and accessories, declined about 40 percent in the same period.
Meanwhile Arctic's Minnesota-based rival, Polaris Industries Inc., has surged to the head of the pack in the off-road-vehicle market largely because of its strong side-by-side business. Polaris has both a pure sport model, the RZR, and a utility model, the Ranger, that's aimed primarily at workers, farmers and outdoorsmen. Since 2006 Polaris' ATV sales have increased more than 11 percent, totaling close to $1.4 billion last year.
Now Arctic is poised to strike back. Sometime in the next several months it will roll out its pure sport side-by-side, the Wildcat, which it has been working on for more than two years. CEO Claude Jordan won't disclose how much the company has spent developing it, but says it's the most of any ATV in the company's 50-year history.
Jordan, who joined Arctic as president in 2008 and succeeded retiring CEO Christopher Twomey late last year, acknowledges the company has some catching up to do: "We were caught a little off-guard by how fast the side-by-side market grew."
Siddens said some of the demand for sport side-by-sides, which allow a passenger to sit next to the driver, is coming from motorcycle as well as single-seat ATV enthusiasts. "You can share the experience," he said. "It's safer because you are strapped in, have a cage around you."
The Wildcat opens a new market segment for Arctic, but it also is part of broader push in to new products. The company introduced three new single-seat ATVs in January, and only a handful of its total ATV... [Read More]
