2008 Arctic Cat 700 Diesel Super Duty ATV Overview

Turn the key on the 2008 Arctic Cat 700 Diesel Super Duty ATV and the glow plug lets you know something pretty cool is about to happen. As the big engine turns to life, heads turn. There’s something about a diesel-powered machine that just says, “C’mon, that all you got?” If it looks familiar, that’s because it’s based on the same chassis used by the TRV. Sure it looks like any other Arctic Cat full-size ATV, tough and rugged, but around the jobsite, farm, and military base, this one’s boss. The 2008 Arctic Cat 700 twin cylinder, SOHC diesel engine provides 50% greater fuel mileage over a conventional gasoline engine and provides gobs of low-end torque. The engine runs efficiently on six forms of diesel fuel (DF 1, DF 2, DF A Arctic, JP 5, JP 8 and up to 20% Biodiesel (B20)) with a glow plug pre-heater for starting. If the term Biodiesel has caught your attention, Arctic Cat tested the new ATV on the alternative fuel made from vegetable oil or animal fat with the Agricultural Utilization Research Institute (AURI) and the Minnesota Soybean Growers. “Arctic Cat was very impressed with B20,” says Ole Tweet, ATV Genral Manager. “The blend burns cleaner than conventional diesel, producing fewer carbon dioxide emissions and lower levels of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and particulates. That complements Arctic Cat’s stewardship goals,” Tweet says. “We’re trying to reduce the impact of our ATV’s on the environment and we like the idea of making an ATV that could run on renewable fuel grown by farmers, some of our best customers.” The only 3-in-1 diesel ATV on the market has numerous features to ease your work chores. Chief among them is the standard SpeedRack, or have your Authorized dealer transform your Diesel into a two-rider machine. Available accessories are the two-up touring seat for extended trail trips or add a heavy-duty cargo box for larger work loads. The quick pin-pull system allows removal of all accessories in a matter of seconds. Passengers in the two-up mode will appreciate integrated footrests for smooth and secure footing. Likewise, the foot brake system incorporates a remote reservoir master cylinder for improved feel and is complemented by floating brake calipers for added value. Up front you’ll notice styling cues are taken from the Cat Family for a great look. The front and rear SpeedRacks have a contoured shape and attachment mounting positions for a multitude of accessory options. An integrated winch mount makes installation of your future winch a snap, due to the location of the winch components. A digital instrument pod displays important operation information (MPH, odometer, dual trip meters, hour meter, and clock). An electronic 2WD/4WD switch makes going in/out of 4WD as simple as pressing a button. Start-In-Gear ability and single lever hand operated hydraulic disc brakes. The double A-arm front suspension and fully independent rear suspension (both with five-position spring preload adjustment) deliver 8 inches of travel and keep the rider firmly planted and comfortable. And 10 inches of ground clearance helps you clear nearly all trail obstacles. Other premium features include 25-in. Dunlop QuadMax tires, zero-maintenance suspension bushings, sealed driveshafts, large 5.5-gallon fuel tank and durable, full-length plastic skid plate.

No degradation in performance or engine/component life • JP 5 & JP 8 - A common turbine fuel used in all military vehicle applications • DF A Arctic - Commonly used in areas with sub-zero ambient temperatures only • Biodiesel - The Arctic Cat 700 Diesel runs on biodiesel blends up to 20% (B20) Engine Durability - The 700 Diesel is so durable that the first scheduled engine rebuild is suggested at 10,000 hours.

2008 700 Diesel Super Duty ATV Chassis/Suspension:

Fully Independent Suspension (FIS) - Arctic Cat ATV’s have an optional sway bar available as an accessory purchase through your authorized dealer. Similar to any off-road 4x4 vehicle, eliminating the sway bar lets the 8” of front or rear Fully Independent Suspension articulate through the full range of suspension travel. This increased articulation provides full tire contact in all types of off-camber terrain. The addition of the sway bar will impact the traction capabilities; however, it will enhance flatter cornering in aggressive trail riding Industry Leading Ground Clearance - 8” of ground clearance enhances the ability to navigate through mud or over large rocks, logs, and other objects encountered in rough terrain 2-Inch “Automotive-Style” Receiver Hitch - This feature allows the consumer to remove the hitch from their 2” automotive receiver and install it into the ATV’s receiver hitch Floating Hydraulic Disc Brakes • Low maintenance, positive stopping power in either dry or wet conditions Adjustable Shocks • Set the preload on the shocks to tailor the ride to individual riding styles and loads.
