Arctic Catreleased its 2015 ATV and ROV (side-by-side) line last night at its dealer show in Las Vegas. Not everything that happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, so here’s a Cliff’s Notes version of all that’s new:

There are 15 new models, most notably a new XR ATV line, new Prowler XT models and a new 60-in. Wildcat Sport that slots in between the original Wildcat and Trail models.

Here’s the skinny on the new Prowler 1000, 700 and 550 XT models, which get all-new, automotive-inspired bodywork, plus myriad improvements in rider comfort:

  1. what is the price range of the Prowler 1000 XT EPS? When will the 2015 be available? Will there be any available in the Yuma AZ area?

  2. I have a 2015 side-by-side 550 prowler with the H1 engine. I have been losing power ever since the first beakdown. It keeps getting slower every time I get it back from the shop. I paid someone to look at it and they said I have about half the compression it should have but the dealer is saying it is fine. I have 82lbs compression and I believe it is supposed to be 155-175lbs. I lose power and speed going up hills. Down to 19mph, top speed is 42mph and that is with it floored. I used to be able to go around 55mph. How much compression am I supposed to have?
