Went to the Sled/ At show in Edmonton this weekend and viewed for my first time a AC Wildcat. Looks like a real fun buggy. Made for play and a good rival for the Polaris XP.
I can see a log or tree coming thru the fender due to the low stance of the machine and no interior fender protection. Rhino's had the same open fenders but the were considerably higher and a lot slower of machine. Just though for a machine that is so fast they would do their best to protect the owner. Interior is bland, again expected more of a cockpit like Commander. Mounting a winch may be tricky as well....
The doors are a real nice touch. Good one for AC. Every manufacture should put factory doors in the price of these high priced toys. I also understand they have a great deal of add on's already available to accessorize them. I really am looking forward to taking one for a good hard ride. Man that suspension looks crazy. Now at least when you compare a Polaris 900 XP to a AC 1000 Wildcat you'll get a fair test, they are the same class of machine....
I saw time and time again Polaris XP 900 getting compared to Can Am Commander X. Well Can Am doesn't make a factory long travel machine. Once they do then we can add the future Can Am to the other pure sport models and have a shoot out....
Great to see the SXS market advancing so rapidly and I hope the growth continues.... This year the AC Wildcat and 4 seat Kawi Teryx, hopefully next year a pure sport Commander or bigger, badder re-designed Rhino....
