Begin your adventure with the amphibious all season all-wheel drive, off-road ARGO.

Go where your dreams lead you, through challenging terrain, over hills, even on water

or snow. Unsurpassed in versatility and reliability, the ARGO carries you, your friends

and supplies to those far away places. With ARGO, go ahead and dare to dream.

When considering an ARGO, you'll be glad to know that it is built with the finest

in engineering technology and is backed by over 40 years of experience. The ARGO

is unquestionably one of the best off-road vehicles you’ll ever drive.

Exploring Beyond All Expectations The new ARGO Frontier 6x6 is turning the world of

utility terrain vehicles inside out. Enjoy the new

style and comfort while you explore your own

frontiers beyond your wildest expectations. With

its innovative body design and outstanding

technological features, the ARGO Frontier 6x6

features increased vehicle stability with space for up

to 4 passengers or 700 lbs. on land, more cargo

capacity and a smoother ride over rough terrain.

The Ultimate Outdoor Dream MachineDesigned for those who demand the best, the

new ARGO Avenger EFI features effective throttle

response, improved fuel economy, on-board

diagnostics for ease of maintenance, excellent high

altitude performance, reliable cold weather

starting, and space for up to 6 passengers or

1150 lbs. on land. This powerful off-road vehicle is

unsurpassed on land or in the water.

The amphibious ARGO off-road vehicle is designed with families in mind, with ample space

for your supplies, luggage and up to six passengers. Travelling through mud, rugged terrain

and deep snow is a breeze, making year-round cottage visits a reality. Try the ARGO for fun or

for property maintenance. As an amphibious all season vehicle, the ARGO gives you many of

the advantages you get from a 4x4 ATV, snowmobile and a boat.

• Amphibious • All Season • All Terrain • All Wheel Drive • Up to 6 Passengers

Travel with ease through the toughest conditions

imaginable – in mud, on hills, crossing ponds and

small streams. Challenging terrain will suddenly

become a pleasure to negotiate and the ARGO’s low

ground pressure tires minimize the impact on the

environment. So go on, spoil yourself. Take your

friends and all the equipment you need to track the

best game. You’ll still have plenty of space to take

home whatever you bag.

Holy mackerel… it floats!Fishing and duck hunting enthusiasts agree that the

ARGO is a better way to go. Unlike traditional

vehicles, the all terrain amphibious ARGO floats.

The special webbed tires actually work as linear

propellers in water. There is plenty of room for

friends and your equipment too, so what are you

waiting for?

A R G O , F O R T H E R U G G E D I N D I V I D U A L

For safety, we recommend the wearing of helmets and eye protection. When operating in water,always wear approved Personal Floatation Devices. Always remain seated while in the ARGO.

Outfitters, lodges, resorts and ecotour operators are now

able to offer a convenient and reliable outdoor experience

to their customers. The multi-passenger ARGO is ideal for

wilderness exploration, adventure tours, photo safaris,

customer shuttles and everything in-between.

Take advantage of your ARGO to get the work done

around your property, woodlot or farm. The rugged ARGO

tows and carries loads, and allows you to work in areas

that are normally inaccessible at certain times of the year.

Public SectorSome emergency tasks require the extra advantage

that only the ARGO can provide. The all terrain,

amphibious ARGO 8 x 8 transports personnel and

equipment to the site and evacuates the injured.

Add the ARGO to your rescue fleet for the added

assurance you need when the odds are stacked

against you. Don’t wait until your next emergency.

Crews and equipment have to travel miles through

challenging terrain to inspect hydro lines or

prospect new drilling sites. Helicopters or tracked

vehicles may be able to get the job done, but at

what cost? Today’s cost-conscious industry players

have another choice: The ARGO.
