Snowmobilers know that winter is the best season. And for many well-groomed trail enthusiasts, winter is too good not to share the fun. This is where the 2018 Ski-Doo Grand Touring models come in.
They’re designed to take a companion in comfort, with a very comfortable controlled ride, an excellent selection of advanced engines, and a wide range of luxury features. Modular seating that can be configured for one, two or even three people, SilentDrive? tracks that provide quieter rides, and air-controlled suspension that allows you to adjust the rear preload without stopping the sled are just a few of the features that make the Grand Touring the best snowmobile on the trail.
Touring snowmobilers are looking for consistent power, low fuel consumption, quiet operation and durable engines. The competition in this area is far behind Grand Touring snowmobiles, thanks to the Rotax 1200 4-TEC, 900 ACE and 600 ACE 4-stroke engines. Not only are these engines highly efficient, they also feature the Intelligent Throttle Control (iTC) system, with three riding modes (Sport, Standard, ECO), a learning key for beginners and rental companies, and a fingertip throttle control to reduce thumb fatigue during long rides.
It’s innovations like these that make Grand Touring models so popular with snowmobilers year after year.
