Features

Features

  • PLENTY OF POWER TO PLAY - 400-SERIES EFI ENGINE: Previously known as the BLAST M 4000, the M 400 is equipped with a 397cc single-cylinder 2-stroke engine with 65-class horsepower and electronic fuel injection (EFI) offers quicker, more responsive power that gives you a smoother take off every time.
  • UNMATCHED CONTROL - ALPHA ONE SINGLE-BEAM REAR SUSPENSION: ALPHA ONE Suspension is the only single-beam rear suspension in the industry, providing enhanced agility on the mountain. The lightweight, single-beam design provides nimble action allowing riders to maneuver the sled and carve tighter circles with less effort than conventional, dual-rail snowmobiles.
  • PROVEN SUSPENSION - ARCTIC MOUNTAIN SUSPENSION: The Arctic Mountain Suspension (AMS) is built specifically to navigate through deep snow. With lightweight spindles and precision engineered suspension geometry designed with mountain riding in mind, AMS optimizes your performance in deep snow.
  • SMOOTH POWER DELIVERY - ARCTIC DRIVE SYSTEM: The durable Arctic Drive System has a CVTech Trailbloc drive clutch and CVTech Invance driven clutch to deliver power to the snow. It also provides more low-end power and throttle control, which is needed when navigating deep snow.
  • LIGHT AND NIMBLE - MID-SIZE CHASSIS: The mid-sized BLAST chassis is extremely lightweight, making it agile and easy to handle, no matter your skill level. With a lightweight mountain seat and a short tank, this sled makes transferring weight while cornering effortless.
  • EASIER STEERING - G2 PROCLIMB SKIS: The lightweight G2 ProClimb™ 7-inch Mountain Ski is tapered to stay on top of the snow. The ski works in tandem with the AMS spindles for easier steering and better deep snow performance.
  • RELIABLE TRACTION - CHALLENGER TRACK: The Challenger 146-inch track with 2-in lug offers the traction needed to conquer varying backcountry conditions. Its benchmark lug design is versatile for all-around performance and features a saw-tooth lug for additional grip on hard, wind-blown and springtime snow.
  • READY TO GO - TURN-KEY ELECTRIC START: Simply sit down and take off. The M 400 features a turn-key electric start, so there's no need to pull-start this mountain sled.
