2026 Arctic Cat ZR 858 R XC CONFIDENCE-INSPIRING CONTROL

AWS 42 FRONT SUSPENSION WITH PROGRESSIVE RATIO STEERING

AWS 42 is the culmination of over 40 years of experience with the Arctic Wish Suspension, optimized for trail riding. By centralizing the weight distribution, the suspension now sits directly under the rider, giving them more flexibility to move around on the sled, as well as giving them more control. This also puts more of the sled's weight on the skis, improving balance.
 
With a progressive steering ratio, riders will feel the difference immediately. The sled will react to the slightest movement, making the ZR 600 feel like a natural extension of the rider's body.
