2014 Sportsman Ace Specifications: Engine While the Sport UTV segment has focused on ultra powerful, long suspension desert machines in recent years, Arctic Cat has turned some much needed attention on designing a nimble woods machine. We had a chance to get behind the wheel of the Polaris RZR 800 challenger in the wilds of Gateway Canyons, Colo. The new Arctic Cat-designed 700cc engine (built by Kymco) is an electronically fuel injected four-valve, dual overhead cam, parallel Twin that produces a claimed 60 horsepower.  The new two-seat Teryx sees many of the same upgrades as its big brother – the Teryx4. In the engine compartment, the Teryx gets a power boost from its upgraded 783cc V-Twin, which gets a claimed 26% more horsepower and 12% more torque. This is a substantial increase considering the Teryx4 only managed an increase of about 7% in horsepower and 10% in torque. Regardless these numbers mean something is happening in the Kawasaki development room and we hope the numbers transfer well to the ground when we get our hands on the steering wheel. 
The Teryx will also receive the same FOX Podium shock package that is offered on the Teryx4. These great shocks will be setup for the loss of the extra seats' weight. Suspension travel will also mirror that of the Teryx4, 8.0 in. up front and 8.3 in. in the rear. We've ridden the Teryx4 with these shocks are are confident they will suit the average riders as well as those who choose to push the Teryx to the next level.
