The world has its own unique ways of telling humans to do a U-turn. Ice-crusted lakes, mud-slicked inclines and other nasty stuff that requires no red octagonal sign informing you to go back the way you came. There’s one machine, however, that gives you the ability to blow right through those, especially when it is a rescue mission where people are in need for help.
The lightweight amphibious ARGO Centaur XT SAR is designed for go-anywhere performance. It maneuvers effortlessly on any surface with its smooth skid steering, unique suspension and massive tubeless ultra-low-pressure tires. It’s loaded with innovative technology, comfort and safety features. And the ability to get your gear, cargo and teams anywhere on the planet safely. Suddenly, the world is a little smaller.
Features may include:
Doosan® diesel engines are powerful, reliable and fuel efficient with low noise and vibration. The strength and dependability you need day in and day out in the most extreme environments and weather conditions.
The Centaur XT uses a smooth hydraulic skid steering system to provide superior maneuverability when huge boulders, steep ridges, fallen trees and deep ravines try to block your path. It makes turning easier and effortless to turn no matter what terrain is out your window.
The reliability, strength and durability of our patented suspension system (including tires and wheels that are lightweight and elastic), creates a high level of adhesion to the ground. The 71" tubeless ultra-low-pressure tires are self-inflating for optimum traction in snow, water, sand, mud or hard surfaces. The full inflation cycle takes 30 seconds to reach full pressure. Many ask, "Can you get a flat?" The simple and tested answer is, "no."
Unlike hydraulic motors and belt drives, a unique experience of using gears and oil bath chains help to avoid slippage and sticking on any terrain when the vehicle is being driven in extreme conditions.
Special canister fuel tanks embedded in each wheel can significantly increase self-sustainability and drastically increase cruising range, while keeping the internal space free for storing supplies, tools and equipment. Total additional diesel fuel capacity for the Centaur XT is 61.2 gallons (231.6 L).
