Arctic Cat Prowler XTX 700 H1

Arctic Cat Prowler Resources:

Power

The 700 (officially it is a 695 cc) EFI has a decent amount of power for sport use. EFI makes it easy to start and the engine runs real smooth. Seat of the pants dyno tells me that the Arctic Cat Prowler XTX 700 H1 LE has more power than the 700 EFI Yamaha Rhino.

Center of Gravity

Arctic Cat Prowler Seat Height  Seats sit high in the Prowler which raise the center of gravity

The biggest drawback to the Prowler is its' center of gravity.  The seats are more than 6" higher than a Rhino.  You literally have to climb up into the Prowler.

Size

The Prowler is deceivingly big. Taller, wider and longer that a Polaris Ranger, it is a big vehicle.

Side-by-side Comparison: Rhino vs. RZR vs. Prowler
The Prowler is much bigger than a Yamaha Rhino or a Rhino RZR

Hitch

Arctic Cat Prowler Hitch

The Prowler's hitch is 2" which is nice, but it is not strong enough to handle a heavy trailer even though the towing capacity is rated at 1500 lbs.

Ground Clearance

The Arctic Cat Prowler has great ground clearance - higher than the Rhino, RZR and Ranger.

Seat Belts

Arctic Cat Prowler - Seat Belt

The Arctic Cat Prowler comes from the factory with lap belts - no shoulder straps.  Don't expect to do much sport type riding without moving to a 4 or 5 point harness setup.  It just is not safe.

Roll Cage

Arctic Cat Prowler - Roll Cage

Arctic Cat is the only UTV manufacturer that uses box tubing for the roll cage.  This makes if harder to add on an aftermarket cage.

Rear Differential Unlock

The Prowler's rear differential can be unlocked to save turf or turn sharper

The Prowler's rear differential can be unlocked (open) so grass won't be torn up and turning radius will decrease.  This is a great feature.

Dash

Arctic Cat Prowler Dash - Gauges & Switches

Controls are pretty easy to reach and instrumentation is good.  110mph may be a bit high for the speedometer.

The "DIFF LOCK" switch seems a bit weak to me.

The parking brake is in the lower left - foot operated.
