Here's the Proof
Industry’s Toughest Critics Hail Arctic Cat’s EPS
Best Arctic Cat ATVs Ever – Now With Power Steering
Arctic Cat took time perfecting Electronic Power Steering, but based on the overwhelming positive media coverage, the wait was definitely worth it. See what the industry’s harshest critics had to say and the message you can pass on to your consumers.
John Arens, ATV Illustrated February 2010
“It’s rare for any manufacturer to launch a new model on terrain or in conditions that may not favor them. Arctic Cat launched six new units with EPS in extreme conditions and in unforgiving terrain, and that says a lot about the confidence they have in their ATVs. After a day of riding, we feel the new models are the best Arctic Cats ever.”
John Prusak, ATV Magazine March 2010
“Lighter steering is a nice benefit, but the primary advantage to the system is the amount of kickback it erases. On the rugged trails of Moab we were able to attack the challenging conditions with a new sense of confidence, and that confidence was rewarded with a smooth and enjoyable ride.”
Brad Howe, Dirtwheels April 2010
“The Arctic Cat 700H1 EFI is a good machine. It provided us with a solid test, and we came away impressed. The power steering system is one of the best on the market, too. It has a smooth powerplant, which is bolted to a very reliable chassis. The suspension is plush. Eleven inches of ground clearance is class-leading, and you can ride it up absolutely anything.”
Pat Bourgeois, ATV World Winter 2010
“Arctic Cats EPS system is perhaps the most sophisticated of its kind in the industry, their true variable assist makes for a buttery smooth and near resistance-free turning during extreme low speed situations, or when external forces such as mud, rocks or stumps try to make turning difficult.
Nick Nelson, ATVriders.com
“The system does not over assist like I feel that some of the other available systems do, and I could not think of a single situation where I would opt for going back to a non power steering model. That said, if Arctic Cat’s intention was to drastically improve the meat of their line up with the addition of a power steering system that leaves the rider feeling like he is still in complete control, then they have succeeded.”
John Sandberg, ArcticInsider.com
“I must admit I wasn’t one of those people clamoring for powersteering. I’d never tried and, nor did I believe needed it. This made my experience all the more enlightening and, frankly, overwhelming. The difference between EPS and Non-EPS is night and day. Steering effort is cut in half…and maybe more. The difference is most noticeable when negotiating rocks, tight turns and heavy-steering situations, and it’s clear to me other situations where I would be equally impressed: plowing snow; negotiating tight woods and anytime when riding with a fully-locked differential.”
