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 Machine
Designed 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

 A R G O , F O R T H E
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?
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.
