The design process for the new-generation Ski-Doo MXZ XRS focused on improving the functionality of the snowmobile. The Ski-doo MXZ adapts to the terrain for optimum suspension performance and significantly reduces vibration for better ergonomics, comfort and stability aided by the new Smart Shox suspension feature. The dual LED headlights also improve visibility. The Ski-Doo MXZ XRS is equipped with BRP Connect technology, allowing the rider to access compatible applications via the touchscreen. The judges liked the evolutionary design approach, in which many small improvements have been made to improve the riding experience as well as safety.
