Aurora 800

Ask us and we’ll tell you time off is too precious for cleaning garages, painting walls or doing the dreaded “staycation.” No, to make the most of your precious free time, you need some open air, a patch of wilderness you’ve never been to before and a few people who share your love of riding. Not to mention a really cool getaway vehicle. Good thing there’s the 2026 amphibious Aurora 800 to assist your escape. Aurora is the premium XTV platform for ARGO, and this machine is equipped with a reliable 800 V-Twin engine to give you the performance to go far away from the demands of the world. And with its Instant Torque Clutch (ITC) technology and the Admiral Transmission with ARGO Progressive Steering (APS), it will feel like the easy, stress-free getaway you deserve. So, block off the calendar, get out of town and hit the trail. Because your perfect anywhere awaits, and you’ve got reservations.

This KX 800 V-Twin Liquid-Cooled EFI engine provides the perfect balance of horsepower and torque. Available on Aurora and Conquest Series.

The Admiral transmission with ARGO Progressive Steering (APS) uses some very complex gearing, including dual differentials on the output shafts. So when steering, the braking force is not applied to the output shafts but to a steering differential, which translates to a vastly different driving experience.

While steering in high gear, the output shafts rotate at a 3:1 ratio, yielding smoother, gentler steering events. While there is no ability for zero turn in high range, select low range and it operates similarly to a traditional skid steer vehicle offering a zero-radius turn.

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.

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.
