Extreme Terrain Vehicles (XTVs), is pleased to announce the introduction of 2 additional models to its 2021 model year lineup. Effective today our dealers can begin ordering these 2 new models and customers can expect to take delivery starting late March - Early April.
“Field demand for all of our models has been incredible during this past year but we kept being asked about a liquid cooled model in our premium Aurora platform” stated Kevin Asselin, ARGOs Vice President of Sales. “We put a lot of stake in the voice of the customer and we heard them loud and clear here. We know demand for these models will be high and quickly become one of our top sellers!”
Early input on these new models has been tremendous:
"This is great news that ARGO will have a liquid cooled engine option available for the new Aurora models! I think this new Liquid cooled engine option will drive sales for 2021 giving the buyer more options." - Sills ARGO
"This new powerplant will fit the niche that many customers will want, if not require, in the demanding conditions they are exposed to." - ARGO Adventure
These 2 new models feature our 800 engine that is currently offered in our Conquest series. It is a liquid cooled V-twin with EFI. Both Aurora models come with our patented ARGO progressive steering (APS), a 16 function premium gauge as well as many other features, and of course, are fully amphibious. The Huntmaster model also features a front rack, winch, and rear cargo box as standard equipment.
Kevin went on to say “The Argo line of amphibious Extreme Terrain Vehicles are gaining popularity as an alternative to the traditional Side x Side and as we continue to grow our dealer base, this new Aurora 800 with a twin cylinder, liquid cooled engine will be a key model for both the recreational and commercial markets.”
