THE new kid on the ATV/UTV block, Arctic Cat Australia, is making a concerted effort to build product share in the agricultural sector of the market.
Arctic Cat is an American company that specialised in ATVs, side-by-sides, Wildcat race buggies and snow mobiles.

The company’s dealer manager for Queensland and Northern Territory, Shane Ladynski, said the dealer network was being expanded throughout Australia with the aim of building penetration into the agricultural market.
At the moment there are 25 dealers, but he said plans were in place to increase that to about 50.
Mr Ladynski said the company produced a range of machines suited to the Australian agricultural market.
“We do a basic, bare-bones quad bike with steel wheels and no power steering or fuel injection,” he said.
“Then we do an XT model with alloy wheels, fuel injection, power steering and differential locks.
“They are fully automatic bikes with engine braking, 22-litre fuel tanks under the seats, good storage, rack capacity and ground clearance.
“We do three side-by-side units in Australia: a 550 and 1000 as two-seaters with power steering, fuel injection and engine braking; and a HDX which is a three-seater, has bigger tray capacity and extra storage.”
The Arctic Cat 1000XT ATV is a 1000cc machine that has a V-twin motor, fuel injection, engine braking and power steering.
It features sway bars and independent rear suspension.
