(NEW HAMBURG, July 29th, 2022) – ARGO, manufacturer of ATVs, SxSs, UTVs and the worldwide leader for amphibious Xtreme Terrain Vehicles (XTVs) launched their most diversified lineup of products yet, showcasing over 55 years of research and development. Staying true to their “Know No Boundaries” mantra, ARGO CEO Brad Darling immediately smiled when asked about the MY23 product and said, “Year over year we continue to see exponential growth across all of our segments of products. This continued growth is in large part due to the enthusiasm and effort put forth by ARGO employees to push our products to the next level, ARGO dealers and distributors who’ve identified what carrying ARGO products can do for their business, and consumers who understand where ARGO products can take them.”
Kicking off the 2023 release, ARGO set their sights on expanding the lineup of amphibious XTVs. ARGO unveiled an “SE” package outfitted with a front-mounted factory-installed brushguard, hand holds and 3 special colors of their high-density polyethylene (HDPE) shell: White, Tan and Navy Blue. The most exciting part about these new SE models is they are powered by the all-new ODG LX 850 engine. This big bore, fan-cooled, V-twin engine puts a ton of go in Go Anywhere.
While the new SE model may grab the attention of headlines, the ARGO team remained persistent in making improvements to the entry level Frontier and premiere Aurora models. For 2023, ARGO addressed consumer feedback for additional handholds by adding a newly designed seat configuration that now provides rear facing handhold locations for passengers sitting in the back. To take that one step further, ARGO also contoured the seat design for the driver and front passenger providing additional rider comfort. Mechanically, Aurora models received shift lever linkage and throw updates to improve the shifting experience. Pair these subtle yet noticeable alterations to the Instant Torque Drive System (ITDS) and Instant Torque Clutch (ITC) and you find yourself driving one of the strongest, most versatile Go Anywhere XTVs ARGO has ever manufactured.
GO ANYWHERE
