If you go past Nowhere and take a left at the Boondocks, you’ll arrive in that awe-inspiring destination called Way Out There. It’s populated with nothing but streams and prairies, cliffs and big skies, acres of majestic trees and other amazing natural spectacles. The ARGO amphibious Frontier 650 HO 8x8 is the perfect guide for your refreshing journey with its high-output (HO) V-Twin engine. Whether you’re hunting Big Tom the Turkey, seeking a secluded camping vista or just discovering what’s over the hill, you’ll find this 8x8 has the horsepower to get you anywhere. The difficult decision is whether you want to come back to civilization when you reach the elusive Timbuktu.
This 650 Hi-Output V-Twin Fan-Cooled engine is the new standard in power. Perfectly matched to our 8x8 platform, this new ODG engine is engineered with a unique exterior design and a proprietary cyclonic-style air cleaner with a dual bore carburetor, delivering 21% more power plus higher torque.
Instant Torque Clutch (ITC)
The ARGO Instant Torque Drive System (ITDS) dramatically improves low-end torque and increases acceleration. The Instant Torque Clutch (ITC) is designed to provide the optimal gear ratio, shifting seamlessly throughout the full range to utilize the massive torque and power of our engines.
Classic Transmission with APS
The ODG Classic transmission is our simplest design and operates like a mechanical skid steer, which gives it incredible maneuverability. In order to provide vehicle steering, braking force is applied directly to the output of the appropriate side of the transmission based on operator steering input. In both high and low range, the Classic transmission provides zero-radius turns to get you in and around extreme terrain.
ARGO Progressive Steering (APS) with the Classic transmission achieves a smooth and comfortable drive experience to all XTVs in the Frontier Series.
ARGO PROGRESSIVE STEERING (APS)
APS is an innovation in the area of braking force application to the transmission steering differential. By adding a spring element between the handlebars and the brake system we achieved a progressive, dual-rate steering system. Steering events are now effortless with an increase of 4X wider range of steering motion, offering the smoothest turning available in an ARGO XTV. APS makes it as fun and comfortable to drive as any UTV.
Steel Rims and Tires
Steel offset rims with low-pressure 24” tires are custom engineered with a paddle design for amphibious propulsion through water and optimized traction on the most extreme off-road terrain.
Amphibious Body
Yes, this XTV floats. The one-piece amphibious lower body is the signature ARGO design feature. Its smooth, durable underbody floats over potential snags, stumps and outcrops, as well as swamps and water.
