ARCTIC CAT
ARCTIC CAT WILDCAT XX/LTD/SE
The Wildcat XX/LTD/SE are 64-inch-wide high-performance sport machines. All are powered by a naturally aspirated, 130-horsepower, three-cylinder, double-overhead-cam, 12-valve, 998cc engine with a fully automatic, belt-type continuously variable transmission (CVT). For 2022, the Wildcat XX LTD and SE models are equipped with the all-new ADAPT clutch system featuring Arctic Cat-designed drive and driven clutches for increased performance and better serviceability. The system provides faster acceleration and a smoother power delivery. ADAPT’s constant belt tension throughout the ride and improved cooling results in minimized wear and longer belt life with lower emissions.
Also new for 2022, the Garmin TREAD Powersport Navigator can be seamlessly integrated with installation kits for the Wildcat XX. Included mounting hardware allows TREAD to be mounted on the dash. It features a glove-friendly touchscreen and is built to withstand extreme temperatures, terrains and weather. The unit has preloaded topographic and street maps for North and South America. In addition, its high-resolution Birdseye Satellite Imagery can be downloaded directly to the device via Wi-Fi connectivity without a subscription. Its built-in altimeter, barometer, compass, pitch and roll gauges help riders navigate challenging trails and terrain. The premium GPS kit adds the capability for Group Ride Radio (available in the U.S. only), which features group tracking for up to 20 riders. When paired to Bluetooth, it offers hands-free communication so the rider can focus on the trail and stay in contact with other riders.
The Wildcat XX uses double-A-arm front suspension, and trailing arm rear suspension features double shear mounts and 18 inches of travel with Fox 2.5 Podium QS3 shocks.
Wildcat XX also features a roomy cab, full doors, an extremely sturdy cage and 30-inch CST Behemoth tires on 15-inch KMC wheels. The new color choices are Fossil, Flat Black/Medium Green and Phantom Grey.
