Description
The Aurora 950 Search and Rescue (SAR) is a fearless superhero that combines exceptional safety features, emergency response capabilities, and the get-up-and-go to navigate difficult terrain. It’s equipped with life-saving features, including a stretcher and reinforced structural components for ease of transportation. With the VX 950 V-Twin engine and 25" tires, the Aurora SAR models can traverse diverse landscapes in remote areas. Whether it’s a medical emergency, a natural disaster or a broken leg on the slopes, the Aurora SAR provides safety and peace of mind.
Our highest horsepower engine ever released in an XTV chassis, the VX 950, fan-cooled, 4-stroke EFI big block V-Twin engine is an absolute brute when conquering every terrain imaginable. Capable and proven for both recreation and commercial applications, the VX 950 delivers consistent and reliable performance in all temperatures and climates.
The ARGO Instant Torque Drive System (ITDS) delivers outstanding performance by coupling the trusted ARGO Instant Torque Clutch (ITC) with the bulletproof Admiral transmission to deliver increased acceleration and enhanced torque.
Operated in conjunction with the Admiral transmission, APS adds a spring element between the handlebars and the brake system to deliver a progressive, dual-rate steering system which results in an easier, smoother turning motion that instills driver confidence while offering improved steering.
ARGO XT117 25" tires have a proprietary tread pattern for better propulsion through water to help the XTV swim with confidence. The innovative ARGO beadlock rims allow for 1.5-psi tire pressure, providing a 30% smoother and more comfortable ride.
The ARGO Admiral transmission uses a sophisticated gearing system and triple differentials located on the output shafts. The braking force is applied to a steering differential vs. to the output shafts, translating into smoother and gentler steering.

It drives into the water. And it drives right back out.
No trailer to prepare, no boat ramp to find, no twenty-mile detour around a swamp. The sealed hull provides flotation and the rotating wheels do the rest. Mud, peat bog, deep snow, river: the route becomes a straight line again.
