The history of snowmobiles

The first snowmobiles, which became the prototype of modern snowmobiles, were developed back in 1903 by designer S. S. Nezhdanovsky. The principle of their work was the action of an internal combustion engine on a special propeller, which set the unusual sled in motion. Such an invention was truly invaluable in the vast Russian expanses and snowy winters. Snowmobiles were essential both in everyday use and in wartime.

With the advent of the caterpillar system, with the help of the French inventor Adolphe Kegress, the first analogue of the snowmobile was invented, tested and presented in 1911.

Thus began the development of self-propelled sleds, which have undergone various changes over time. This eventually led to the invention of the modern snowmobile, capable of traversing endless miles of snowy terrain in the shortest possible time.
