A lterra 450 4x4 BUILT FOR OUTSIDE. BUILT TO OUT RIDE. We took the brandnew body style and endless capabilities of the full-sized Alterra, and adapted them for the more compact 450 / 400 mid-sized models. Part workhorse, part warrior, these machines are more nimble, lightweight and versatile than the competition. Everything from the Duramatic automatic transmission, trail-tuned independent suspension, on-the-fly 2WD / 4WD and rear hitch, all the way down to the front winch and powder coated steel rims that give you 11 "/ 27,9cm of ground clearance. Needless to say, we |
didn’ t mess around with these newly styled Alterras. Alterra Rear Towing Device
All Alterra Models are equipped with a rugged, automotive-style 50mm ball with trailer connector( 7- pin) towing device simplifies towing applications. Fully Independent Suspension( Midsize)
The fully independent suspension on the Alterra™ 450 and 400 models gives you an impressive 10 inches of ground clearance and 7 inches of suspension travel on a smaller machine. The double A- arms optimize wheel motion, translating into more responsive steering and better cornering.
Front and Rear Impact-Resistant Racks
|
Strong and durable. These impact-resistant racks are rated for 75 lbs. carrying capacity on the front and 150 lbs. on the rear. Transmission Automatic Duramatic Our Duramatic™ automatic transmission is as bulletproof as they come. It’ s made of a centrifugal clutch with primary and driven belt clutches. As RPMs rise, the centrifugal clutch engages, allowing the primary clutch to be engaged with the belt at all times, reducing belt wear and extending belt life. Ergonomics and turning circle
The new Alterra chassis features a more upright sitting position, delivering improved ergonomics and reducing handling effort. These machines are indeed more maneuverable, with an improved turning radius, while requiring a shorter reach from the rider. 1000XT Trail-tested performance
The 1000 XT is revered for its 951cc, Arctic Cat-built H2 EFI engine’ s performance, as well as its durability and proven trail record. To beef up an already impressive list of features, these machines come standard with electronic power steering( EPS), ride-in front and rear suspension, an on-machine SpeedRack and easy-access storage. You also get a 3.000 lbs. winch, rear hitch, sway bar and aluminum rims, which pair nicely with the toughness of that automotive-style paint. 2WD / 4WD front differential lock
Arctic riders prefer to be in control with their on-the-fly 2WD / 4WD. In 2WD, steering is light
|
and nimble. Shift on the fly into 4WD and power is delivered to the front wheels. The front wheels spin at different speeds while the steering effort remains minimal. For the ultimate traction, activate the electronic front differential lock and power is sent to all four wheels, enabling you to crawl, climb and continue on with confidence.

Ride-in suspension
Our Ride-In suspension features a lower center of gravity while rivaling the competition for best ground clearance and suspension travel. The double A-arms prevent deflections during cornering, resulting in ultra-responsive steering. Electronic power steering / tilt steering
EPS delivers a true variable assist system by measuring not only vehicle speed, but also steering torque at both the handlebars and wheels. The electronic control unit measures steering input forces, resistance and speed, instructing the motor to deliver turning forces at predetermined levels. And let’ s not forget tilt steering, allowing you to adjust the steering wheel higher or lower, however you want.
