The world of powersports is undergoing a silent revolution, and for 2026, Ski-Doo is at the forefront with the new Grand Touring Electric. This isn’t just an electric version of a beloved touring sled; it’s a completely new experience, one that combines the luxurious comfort of the Grand Touring with the serene, zero-emission ride of electric power. Built on the advanced REV Gen5 platform, this snowmobile is ushering in a new era of eco-friendly, quiet, and effortless winter adventure.
A New Kind of Power: Rotax E-Power
At the heart of the Grand Touring Electric is the proprietary Rotax E-Power motor. This electric powertrain delivers instant, smooth torque with no complicated clutches or gears. The result is a ride that’s not only incredibly quiet but also exceptionally easy to operate, making it a perfect choice for new riders or anyone seeking a peaceful connection with the winter landscape. The silence of the electric motor allows you to hear the subtle sounds of the snow and the forest, creating a truly immersive experience.
Engineered for Efficiency and Performance
The Grand Touring Electric is built on the proven REV Gen5 platform, a refined chassis that provides a premiere snowmobiling experience with exceptional ride quality and comfort. To optimize the electric powertrain, the sled features a unique design with a sealed hood, as the electric components don’t require the same airflow as a gas engine.
Key specifications and features include:
Integrated Lithium-Ion Battery: A fully integrated lithium-ion battery provides a range of up to 50 km (31.1 miles) under ideal conditions, making it perfect for short-distance guided tours and recreational resort use.
Fast Charging: The sled is equipped with a Level 2 automotive-standard charger, allowing you to get up to an 80% charge in as little as 90 minutes. A full charge takes less than three hours, so you can quickly get back on the snow.
RAS X Front Suspension: The advanced RAS X front suspension offers a confident, responsive ride that handles the bumps with ease.
Revised SC-5 Rear Suspension: The revised SC-5 rear suspension provides a plush and comfortable ride, even over rough terrain.
High-Efficiency Track: A specially designed, ported track reduces weight and friction, ensuring every bit of energy is used for forward momentum.
Luxury Meets Technology
The Grand Touring Electric is a luxury touring sled, and its electric platform is complemented by a host of high-end features. The sled comes equipped with a 10.25-inch touchscreen display with built-in GPS and a Group Ride feature, allowing you to track your ride and see where your friends are, even without a cell signal. The sled also features premium LED headlights, a two-up heated seat with backrest, and heated handholds for the passenger, ensuring a comfortable and connected ride for everyone.
A Fresh Take on Winter
The 2026 Ski-Doo Grand Touring Electric isn’t just a new model; it’s a new way to enjoy winter. Its zero-emission, near-silent ride opens up opportunities to explore eco-sensitive areas and offers a unique, serene experience. While its range is optimized for shorter, more controlled environments, its fast charging and premium features make it the ideal vehicle for commercial operators and consumers who want a zero-emission snowmobile for short-distance fun around their property. The Grand Touring Electric is a taste of the future, today.
