2025 Arctic Cat ZR 858

PEAK PERFORMANCE UNLOCKED

CATALYST CHASSIS

The revolutionary CATALYST platform has been built from the ground up to optimize every aspect of your ride, so much so that you’ll feel at one with the sled. With enhanced ergonomics, a lower center of gravity, our exclusive laydown engine design, specially calibrated suspension and more, this changes everything.

LIGHTWEIGHT, YET POWERFUL

600-SERIES C-TEC2 ENGINE

This robust, yet lightweight 599cc, 125-HP C-TEC2™ engine with Dual-Stage Injection (DSI) offers more than enough power to carve up the backcountry or conquer the trails, while keeping the sled feeling weightless.

Featuring an ECM-controlled electronic oil pump, battery-free electronic fuel injection, exhaust pipe temperature sensor, knock sensor and more, this 600-series engine packs a serious punch. The crankshaft and fuel management system have been redesigned, and the exhaust servo increases torque by creating back-pressure at a lower RPM.

The 599cc, 125-HP CTEC2 engine with DSI is mounted with our Torque Control Link (TCL) and a clutch guard. 

CONFIDENCE-INSPIRING HANDLING

AWS 42 FRONT SUSPENSION WITH PROGRESSIVE RATIO STEERING

AWS 42 is the culmination of over 40 years of experience with the Arctic Wish Suspension, optimized for trail riding. By centralizing the weight distribution, the suspension now sits directly under the rider, giving them more flexibility to move around on the sled, as well as giving them more control. This also puts more of the sled's weight on the skis, improving balance.
 
With a progressive steering ratio, riders will feel the difference immediately. The sled will react to the slightest movement, making the ZR 600 feel like a natural extension of the rider's body.

NO ROUGH RIDES

SLIDE-ACTION™ REAR SUSPENSION

Rough rides are a thing of the past. With this industry-exclusive design that keeps the front arm engaged while the rear arm compresses, you'll hardly feel a bump in the trail.

EFFORTLESS SUPPORT

IFP SHOCKS

You’ll feel the difference in every ride with premium internal floating piston (IFP) shocks. These shocks will dampen the toughest terrain and offer increased durability, allowing you to maximize your performance.

INCREASED DURABILITY

ARCTIC CAT TRAIL BELT DRIVE

The CATALYST platform utilizes Arctic Cat's belt drive system rather than a chain drive. This allows for enhanced durability and fewer parts in the system. The adjustable center distance allows for multiple ratio options and makes servicing simple.

QUICKLY CONNECT

ATACH LATCHING SYSTEM

Adding accessories to your sled is a snap with this 4-point latching system. You can install and remove accessories in seconds, so no matter where you are, you can customize your sled with ease.

BRIGHTEN ANY RIDE

ASYMMETRICAL LED HEADLIGHT

A premium LED headlight is crucial to optimize your visibility. Equipped with both high and low beams, this headlight casts an LED light pattern with great range and width. Plus, with its unique asymmetrical design, everyone will know that you're on an Arctic Cat.

SMOOTH POWER DELIVERY

ADAPT CVT SYSTEM

With its lightweight, narrow design that increases performance and belt life, as well as the industry’s only self-adjusting clutch, the ADAPT™ CVT system provides better throttle response, smoother power delivery and a ride like no other.

READY TO GO

PUSH-BUTTON ELECTRIC START

The convenience of electric start is just one of the countless things that sets the ZR apart. With just the push of a handlebar-mounted button you’ll be up and moving. It is also equipped with a backup manual starter.
