It starts in the open air of the outdoors. Breath it all in and take advantage of the time you get with the ones who share your love of riding. Strap on your helmet and go. The amphibious Aurora 850 will do all the work. As the premium XTV platform for ARGO, this machine has a massive V-Twin engine that'll give you the high-performance power to go far away from your demanding job. And with its Instant Torque Clutch (ITC) technology and the Admiral Transmission with ARGO Progressive Steering (APS), it will feel like the easy, stress-free vacation you deserve. And desire. Block off your calendar, and go hit the trails hundreds of miles away from the nearest amusement park. LX 850 Engine The ARGO V-Twin EFI Fan Cooled engine is specifically designed with advanced technology and created to deliver optimal performance, power and torque when you need it, while providing smoother, quieter and easier starting operation. Admiral Transmission with APS The Admiral transmission with ARGO Progressive Steering (APS) uses some very complex gearing, including dual differentials on the output shafts. So when steering, the braking force is not applied to the output shafts but to a steering differential, which translates to a vastly different driving experience. While steering in high gear, the output shafts rotate at a 3:1 ratio, yielding smoother, gentler steering events. While there is no ability for zero turn in high range, select low range and it operates similarly to a traditional skid steer vehicle offering a zero-radius turn. ARGO Progressive Steering (APS) APS is an innovation in the area of braking force application to the transmission steering differential. By adding a spring element between the handlebars and the brake system we achieved a progressive, dual-rate steering system. Steering events are now effortless with an increase of 4X wider range of steering motion, offering the smoothest turning available in an ARGO XTV. APS makes it as fun and comfortable to drive as any UTV. Instant Torque Clutch (ITC) The ARGO Instant Torque Drive System (ITDS) dramatically improves low-end torque and increases acceleration. The Instant Torque Clutch (ITC) is designed to provide the optimal gear ratio, shifting seamlessly throughout the full range to utilize the massive torque and power of our engines. 25" Tires on Beadlock Steel Rims Aurora models have 25 XT117 tires on premium 9" Beadlock steel rims. The chevron treads maximize your power in thick mud and increase your propulsion in whatever waterway you decide to drive in. Reduced Underhood Temperature To ensure comfort for the operator and passengers, heat-reflective and absorptive material is integrated into the firewall. A composite exhaust shroud goes one step further and effectively redirects heat while producing a subtle note from
