The hybrid snowmobile market continues to grow – in fact, it is the fastest growing segment in the industry. More and more consumers are choosing these machines because of their versatility. Their longer track makes them ideal for all snowmobiling activities such as trail riding, trail breaking, off-trail fun and even slaloming down a mountain side. When you choose a hybrid, you’re buying a snowmobile that can do more.
With its industry-leading 2017 Ski-Doo Renegade snowmobile lineup, BRP offers three types of hybrid vehicles specifically designed for different riding styles.
The trail-ready Renegades offer excellent handling, with more traction and bump-holding capabilities. They’re even ready for the occasional off-road excursion.
The Renegade Enduro adventure snowmobile takes trail riding to a whole new level with high-tech features like Air Ride rear suspension, adjustable Pilot TS skis and Ice Ripper track. It’s also a great choice for breaking trail, weaving through trees and taking shortcuts off-road.
The Renegade Backcountry models are best equipped for off-trail fun while still being fun to ride when it comes to the trails. They offer a compelling combination of features from the deep snow Summit sled and the trail-bound MXZ. Guaranteed fun.
When a snowmobiler chooses either of the Renegade models, they get a vehicle that is agile and ready to go… no matter where it goes.
This is especially true for the new Renegade X and Renegade Adrenaline models with Rotax 850 E-TEC engines. These are the most fun and capable hybrid snowmobiles ever, with a rider-centric design that delivers a new level of control.
Their all-new 4th generation REV platform allows snowmobilers to ride even more freely – a factor of prime importance to Renegade enthusiasts. The new, more forward and aggressive riding position that allows you to turn your toes outward is perfectly natural, as is the standing position with the flat running boards and beveled tunnel. It is without a doubt the most versatile ergonomic package in the snowmobile industry.
It’s also the most exhilarating vehicle thanks to the new Rotax 850 E-TEC engine. Sure, its 165 hp (10 hp more than the 800R E-TEC) is important, but the real adrenaline rush comes from its 30% faster response. When you step on the gas, all the power is felt instantly. Not to mention that E-TEC engines have several advantages: easy starts, stable idle, automatic storage function and low oil consumption. In fact, even with the increase in performance, fuel economy is still impressive, and the distance you can travel with a liter of oil is increased by 40%.

2017 Ski-Doo Renegade X-RS
OVERVIEW
Well, the surgeon’s scalpel is precise. But when you’re looking for high precision and superior capabilities, you have to go with laser precision. In the 2017 Ski-Doo Renegade snowmobile lineup, you have to go for the Renegade X-RS. It comes equipped with Renegade-specific features like the REV-XS platform and RAS 2 and rMotion suspensions, which it takes to the next level with racing snowmobile characteristics. Just think of the unmatched KYB Pro 40 racing shocks and chassis reinforcements. The Renegade X-RS is a high-performance snowmobile right out of the dealership, but a wide range of adjustments allow the rider to customize it to suit the conditions and their riding style-especially if they’ve opted for the Adjustments Package, which includes the industry’s only adjustable skis and the rMotion quick-adjust system. New for 2017, Hyper Silver / Orange Crush, as well as Carbon Black colorways highlight the snowmobile’s high performance.
ENGINE
Rotax 800R E-TEC Engine: Direct injection engine with over 155 hp, yet fuel efficient with up to 12.3 L/100 km (19 mpg). It uses very little oil, provides instant response and greater throttle sensitivity, and generates virtually no smoke or odor. Storage preparations are a breeze with the automatic storage feature.

2017 Ski-Doo Renegade X 850
OVERVIEW
Snowmobilers tell us: versatility is one of the key benefits of Renegade models – they provide impressive precision and ease of riding, no matter the wide variety of conditions and riding styles. On the trail, off-road, in the bumps or on smooth, busy trails: the new 2017 Renegade X with the new Rotax 850 E-TEC engine takes these characteristics to the next level.
It owes its success in large part to a new ergonomic package that allows the driver to drive exactly the way he or she wants to, in a natural and comfortable manner. The design of the 4th generation REV platform is driver-centric – very narrow with a beveled tunnel, flat running boards, new open toe box and innovative Ergo-Step side panels. The panels are designed to take all driving positions naturally, and to make it easy to transition from one position to another. In addition, the sportier Renegade X enthusiasts will love the new more aggressive forward stance (and the new adjustable forward elevation block offered with the X package).
And don’t forget the RAS 3 front suspension with improved geometry and the new dual-pivot steering system (only on the X package), which is even better synchronized with the rMotion rear suspension, especially in difficult conditions, to provide simply unbeatable precision.
The engine makes it even more fun. It provides 10 more hp than the 800R E-TEC (165 hp total), and its response is 30% faster. That doesn’t just mean more power; that’s more power you feel every time you step on the gas. And despite the increase in power, oil consumption is down and fuel economy remains incredibly low.
With the durability, quality and reliability of its snowmobiles, Ski-Doo has led the industry for years, and the combination of the new REV platform and the new 850 E-TEC engine has been specifically designed to provide reliability and ease of maintenance that reduces costs and hassle.

Engineered for reliability and durability with proven 4-stroke and diesel technologies.

2017 Ski-Doo Renegade Adrenaline 850
Imagine a hybrid snowmobile that fits you like a glove. If you want to lean into a turn, just move naturally. If you want to attack a turn, just move further out. Your outside foot will turn naturally, and the snowmobile will attack the turn like no other. Then, when you step on the throttle, you get the feeling that the engine was anticipating the command, and the power is instantly felt, as is the adrenaline rush.
Voilà l’expérience de conduite que vous offre le nouveau modèle Renegade Adrenaline 2017 avec moteur ROTAX 850 E-TEC. Sa plateforme REV de 4e génération et son moteur ont été conçus ensemble pour créer la motoneige hybride la plus puissante, dynamique, agile et polyvalente jamais vue.
The 850 E-TEC engine is a technological success. It delivers 10 more horsepower and 30% faster response on the same amount of fuel and 30% less oil than the 800R E-TEC engine. All of this is achieved with technologies borrowed from durable diesel and 4-stroke engines to provide even greater reliability.
BRP focused the design of the 4th generation REV platform on the rider. It’s extra narrow with a beveled tunnel, fuel tank and redesigned side panels, giving you more room than ever to move and ride your way. Combine the new, more versatile and precise RAS 3 front suspension, the proven rMotion rear suspension and optimal mass centralization across the platform (one of the key benefits of designing the engine and platform together), and you have an incredibly precise vehicle that responds almost telepathically to driver input.
One of the goals of combining the 4th generation REV platform with the 850 E-TEC engine was to produce a snowmobile that could deliver uncompromising fun, while maintaining the well-known features that allow Renegade models to go anywhere with precision and control. That’s exactly what the 2017 Renegade Adrenaline with 850 E-TEC engine has achieved.
The 2nd generation E-TEC engine and transmission have been designed to provide more power, but also to offer exceptional response and even greater precision. The new chassis with its highly centralized masses is particularly narrow and agile. And the improved RAS 3 front suspension is even better synchronized with the rMotion rear suspension, especially in challenging conditions, to provide simply unparalleled precision.
But it’s its ergonomic qualities that allow it to reach its full potential and offer such a satisfying experience. You can quickly adopt a variety of driving styles while remaining comfortable. Its narrow design (compact fuel tank, beveled tunnel and smaller seat) and Ergo-Step side panels provide more room for rider movement and increased maneuverability. Snowmobilers can actually counterbalance the weight in turns with the molded side panels and new open toe box. Moving to the side and forward to plant the skis in the turns becomes quite natural.
With the durability, quality and reliability of its snowmobiles, Ski-Doo has led the industry for years, and the combination of the new REV platform and the new 850 E-TEC engine has been specifically designed to provide reliability and ease of maintenance that reduces costs and hassle.
