Features

Capabilities

  • TAKE ON TOUGH TERRAINS - OFF-ROAD RACING INSPIRED SUSPENSION SYSTEM: The Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition utilizes a suspension system built specifically to dominate uneven terrain. With unequal length A-Arms that neutralize camber, this side-by-side is able to gain more traction and stabilize easier through tough turns and tougher trails. UNEQUAL LENGTH A-ARM FRONT SUSPENSION - A better ride starts up front. Our unequal length A-arms neutralize camber, grabbing more of the ground to stabilize you through every white-knuckle corner. REAR TRAILING ARM SUSPENSION - Hardcore trophy truck and Class 1 buggy racers will recognize the vehicle’s rear trailing arm. It links to the front instead of the sides to keep your wheels moving up-and-down, not side-to-side. 80% LESS TRACK-WIDTH CHANGE - Many vehicles are plagued with side-to-side motion that pushes you off course, requiring constant steering corrections and robbing you of stability. Wildcat XX creates 80% less track-width change than the competition for the smoothest ride in the industry.
  • RACE-WORTHY POWER - CLASS-LEADING 130HP ENGINE: Equipped with a class-leading 998cc, three cylinder, 4-stroke EFI engine producing 130HP, the Arctic Cat Black Hills Edition is built to push the limits. The powerful DOHC engine allows for better airflow with fewer obstructions and offers more efficient, consistent performance. With power like this, prepare for exhilaration.
  • RIDE WITH FRIENDS - GARMIN TREAD POWERSPORT NAVIGATOR: Enhance your ride with the dash-mounted Garmin Tread Off Road GPS. Garmin is an absolute necessity for any group ride, letting you view your routes, music and group members' locations easily. The Garmin Tread fits seamlessly and comes factory installed on the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition, so you can get out there and get started right away.
  • ELIMINATE BUMPS - PREMIUM FOX 2.5 PODIUM QS3 SHOCKS WITH BOTTOM-OUT CONTROL: With the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition, you won't have to compromise between shocks that can absorb big bumps and shocks that offer a more comfortable ride- we gave the side-by-side both. A three-position shock dial control lets you switch from soft, medium, and firm settings depending on the terrain, and with bottom-out control, you'll get an extra 3,000 lbs of damping force when you hit bumps in the trail.
  • SMOOTH POWER DELIVERY - ADAPT CVT CLUTCH: For enhanced power delivery, the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition uses the exclusive ADAPT CVT clutch system. The Drive and Driven clutches are lighter-weight and employ an advanced idler system to maintain constant belt tension, which lengthens belt life, minimizes wear, and maximizes throttle response.
  • ADAPTABLE CONTROL - SHIFT ON-THE-FLY 4WD WITH LOCKING FRONT DIFFERENTIAL: With quick and easy 2/4-Wheel Drive selectability, your Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition can shift on-the-fly between 2WD and 4WD depending on what terrain you're ready to tackle. If you need even more traction, the ALL-NEW locking front differential exclusive to the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition puts maximum torque to all four wheels. With this epic side-by-side built for the tricky trails, you'll be more in control of your ride than ever before.
  • BORN TO CLIMB - ALL-NEW LOWER GEAR RATIO TRANSAXLE: The Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition is built with an all-new lower gear ratio transaxle, designed specifically considering the tough trails you'll encounter. For challenging climbs and crawls, this specialized transaxle increases traction in lower gears, giving you more grip on uneven terrains. This new transaxle has 40% reduced low gear ratio, making it stronger and more durable, so you'll be able to take on more.
  • KEEP COOL - NEW CLUTCH COVER AND COOLING SYSTEM: The Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition is equipped with an all-new clutch cover and cooling system, equipped to seal water and cool the vehicle more efficiently than the standard Wildcat XX. This offers steady airflow throughout the vehicle and keeps the CVT belt cool and dry in the heat, so you can keep riding all day without taking a breather.
  • ELEVATE YOUR RIDE - 15-INCH GROUND CLEARANCE: With more ground clearance comes more exploration. The elevated 15-inches of ground clearance offered by the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition keeps you high above the terrain, along with obstacles and debris. This side-by-side leaves those all in the dust.
  • BIGGER AND BADDER - 32-INCH TIRES: The upgraded 32-inch Kenda Klevers trail tires on the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition will give you more traction on tough terrains and higher ground clearance. These larger tires will elevate your ride, also absorbing some of the shock from hardcore trail riding.
  • ENHANCED STRENGTH - DURABLE COMPONENTS: With the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition, we took obstacles into account and doubled down on durable, tested parts, including double shear steering and suspension components, a forged aluminum front knuckle, oversized front and rear wheel bearings, a hanging rear drivetrain, and removable rear bottom skid plates. All these durable components will bring the most out of every adventure you take.
  • NO ROUGH RIDES - 18 INCHES OF FRONT AND REAR TRAVEL: With 18 inches of front and rear travel, the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition doesn't flinch at a bump in the road. This extreme side-by-side is fully equipped to tackle and tame intense terrains.
  • SAFETY FIRST - RACE-INSPIRED ROPS: We know that Wildcat riders love exhilarating adventures and tough challenges. To keep things safe, we made sure that the Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition is equipped with a durable, race-inspired roll-over protection system.
  • BLOCK OUT DEBRIS - STANDARD FULL DOORS & OVERSIZED FENDERS: The Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition is equipped with full-length hard doors that keep the cab more isolated from the elements. Plus with oversized fenders over each wheel, you'll get even more protection from dust and debris.
  • CUSTOMIZE YOUR RIDE - ACCESSORY READY: The Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition is built to be accessorized, with a standard 65-amp alternator and pre-installed wiring. With this much power, you'll be able to customize your ride with sound bars, lights, or any of the other factory-built accessories available to you. We made Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition to take on the most extreme terrain — and you get to make it yours. Customize the ultimate performance side-by-side with 30 premium accessories, including:Bumpers and Guards, Cab Accessories, Rear Windshields, Audio and Speaker Systems, Cargo and Racks, Lights, Roofs, Storage, Windshields

  • STORE MORE - CLASS-LEADING 300-LB BED: The Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition has space for any extra gear you'll need for a full day of riding. The bed has enough room to carry a 32-inch spare tire or up to 300-lbs. of gear.
  • EASY TO SERVICE - REMOVABLE COMPONENTS: Maintaining your vehicle is simpler than ever. With easily removable components, you can quickly access multiple parts of your Wildcat XX Black Hills Edition for easy serviceabililty without tools.
