Description
Meet the **2027 Ski-Doo MXZ® X-RS 850 E-TEC® 137 1.5** in ****—a trail-bred performance sled that looks as sharp standing still as it feels once the throttle is pinned. It’s the kind of machine that makes you check the forecast a little too often, because any excuse to “just go for a quick rip” turns into a full-on ride.
At the heart of it is a **Rotax® E-TEC** **849cc** liquid-cooled, **2-cylinder** **2-stroke** that’s built to respond like it’s reading your mind. With **165 horsepower**, fuel injection, and a crisp **thumb throttle**, it delivers that instant, punchy pull performance riders chase—strong out of the corner, eager on the straights, and always ready for one more run. Hit the **electric start**, let it settle in, and you’ll know you’re on something serious before you even leave the lot. It runs on **premium fuel** with **gas/oil injection**, keeping things simple when the ride plan gets complicated.
Power gets to the snow through a **CVT** with a **pDrive clutch** and belt drive, translating that engine’s snap into smooth, controlled acceleration. And when the trail tightens up or you need to maneuver in a cramped spot, **reverse** is there to save your boots from unnecessary shoving.
The MXZ X-RS attitude isn’t just about speed—it’s about precision. The **REV Gen5 aluminum frame** keeps things rigid and responsive, while the riding layout and **skid-resistant** running boards help you stay planted when you’re shifting your weight through choppy sections. At **119.6 inches** long and **47.8 inches** wide, it feels purpose-built for trail attack, and at a **504 lb dry weight**, it balances agility with a confident, composed ride.
Up front, the **RAS RX** independent double A-arm suspension delivers **11 inches** of travel, backed by **KYB PRO adjustable gas shocks** (coil-over) so you can fine-tune the feel for your style and your trails. Out back, the **rMotion X** rear suspension brings **11.5 inches** of travel with **two rear shocks** plus a **KYB PRO center shock**, all adjustable—because the best rides are the ones where the sled feels dialed, not lucky.
When it’s time to haul it down from speed, you’ve got **Brembo® hydraulic disc braking**, with **adjustable** control, giving you confident stopping power and better feel when conditions change from hardpack to surprise shine.
Traction comes courtesy of an **Ice Ripper XT** track—**137 inches** long, **15 inches** wide, with **1.5-inch** lugs—built for that sweet spot of trail bite and playful drive. Up front, **Pilot™ skis** with **dual-carbide** skags help it carve clean and hold a line when the corners stack up one after another. Steering is **rack & pinion** through the handlebar, keeping inputs direct and predictable—exactly what you want when the pace picks up.
And it doesn’t forget comfort and visibility. A **low, one-piece vinyl seat** locks you into a sporty position, while **heated, adjustable driver grips** keep your hands happy when the miles add up. The **tinted LED lighting** keeps the view ahead crisp, and the gauges provide **fuel level** and **temperature** warnings so you can focus on the ride, not guesswork. Add in practical protection like hand guards and the confidence of **DESS** security, and you’ve got a sled that’s ready to be ridden hard—and kept right.
Also available in **Black** or **Circuit Yellow – 20th Anniversary**, but in ****, this MXZ X-RS makes its point loud and clear: winter isn’t for waiting—it’s for riding.
