Renegade riders refuse to limit themselves to one type of snowmobile trip. The fun is in varying the terrain from day to day, and even from hour to hour. They give everything they have on every ride and demand the same qualities from their snowmobiles – no matter the conditions.
Snowmobilers who choose the Renegade have tastes that vary from high performance trail running to off-road exploration through the trees to the cabin or hunting camp. This diversity is what hybrid snowmobile enthusiasts are looking for. And it’s what motivated BRP’s product development team to produce the most advanced line of Ski-Doo Renegade snowmobiles to date.
Always looking for versatility and adaptability, hybrid snowmobile enthusiasts are in for a treat in 2019 with an incredible six engine choices. With three two-stroke options – the powerful 850 E-TEC, the new 600R E-TEC and the proven 600 Carb – and three four-stroke options – the dynamic new 900 ACE Turbo, the naturally aspirated 900 ACE and the sporty yet fuel-efficient 600 ACE – snowmobilers have plenty of options to choose from to match their exact style.
Improvements to the 900 ACE allow this naturally aspirated engine to generate an additional 5 hp for a total of 95 hp. The 900 ACE Turbo features a Rotax-designed and -built turbocharger that allows it to deliver an incredible 150 hp output – 20 hp more than the 1200 4-TEC it replaces. Consumers looking for a four-stroke engine can now choose a high-performance engine, available for the first time with the legendary X-RS package.
Both engines are moving to the roomy and agile REV Gen4 platform, and will join the 850 E-TEC and the new 600R E-TEC on what snowmobilers call “the best-handling platform in the industry. Comfortably seated in the spacious cockpit behind the narrow, molded Ergo-Step side panels, the snowmobiler can interpret the terrain and choose how to conquer it. The REV Gen4’s centralized weight allows the sled to respond instinctively to the rider’s commands, both in aggressive trail turns and during those fun-filled accelerations.
With industry-leading features like the rMotion rear suspension and RAS 3 front suspension, the Renegade X-RS, Enduro and Adrenaline models are ready to take on the most demanding terrain that winter can invent. At 137″ wide, the track provides exceptional traction during aggressive acceleration and hard braking. It not only floats off the trail, but also absorbs bumps with confidence, while the RAS 3 front suspension dissects demanding trails with precision.
The Renegade Sport combines a choice of two proven engines – the 600 ACE four-stroke and 600 Carb two-stroke – with the legendary REV-X platform to give snowmobilers the versatility of many options at a very affordable price.

For the first time, the X-RS is offered with an optional four-stroke engine, the state-of-the-art Rotax 900 ACE Turbo engine with its powerful 150 horsepower. This new powerplant provides the X-RS with optimal dynamic response, and acceleration that you can feel in your arms. The X-RS package also features top-of-the-line shocks for snowmobilers who demand top-notch four-stroke performance in every way.
