This snowmobile was originally conceived by Rybinsk craftsmen as a utilitarian multi-purpose vehicle that can be used for winter recreation and walks, as well as a working transport. The power and cross-country ability of the SUV allow you to carry heavy loads with it and easily overcome the snowy expanses. In addition, the manufacturers took into account the characteristic features of the Russian winter when developing this model.

About the exterior modifications of the model

The snowmobile "Taiga Varyag 550" is one of the models of snow SUVs of the Taiga series, which is produced by the Russian Mechanics motorcycle concern. This machine meets all the requirements and standards that apply to modern snowmobile technology. Let's start with the appearance of the 550th model of the Taiga series snowmobile.

The production of the hood and some of the outer parts of the body is made of impact-resistant ABS plastic, which is not afraid of exposure to temperatures and retains itsphysical properties. Therefore, the car is not afraid of severe frosts and minor blows to the hull, which periodically occur when the Taiga Varyag 550 overcomes rough terrain. To improve lighting and visibility of the driver at night and in the evening, a completely new headlight was installed on the Varyag 550. Thanks to this refinement, the illumination has become much more intense, as the direction of the light beam has been adjusted.

For the exterior of the car, they also began to use completely new heat-resistant materials, which avoids cracking when the temperature changes. The snowmobile is now equipped with brand new ergonomic seats that can be used for a very long time without changing their appearance.

Powerful and reliable

The snowmobile "Taiga Varyag 550" is equipped with a 50-horsepower two-stroke single-carburetor engine RMZ-550 with an air-type cooling system. This engine has a displacement of 553 cm³ and provides high traction under any load. It features smooth and uniform uninterrupted operation, which is largely made possible thanks to the upgraded cooling system. It should be noted that air flows through the air ducts directly into special chambers, which prevents the motor from overheating at maximum loads.

Under the hood of the SUV there are high-quality materials that have good noise-absorbing properties and ensure quiet and comfortable operation of the Taiga Varyag 550 snowmobile. Owner reviewscan confirm the fact that the car began to work much quieter and more confidently, and the silent operation of the motor can turn the ride into a real pleasure.

Car safety and convenience

In cold weather, heated driver and passenger grips are a necessary feature to keep you warm on the road, as cold headwinds can make driving a real pain. Additional protection for the crew is provided by the windshield, which is made of polycarbonate alloy.

Such a screen does not distort the image, and also protects crew members from precipitation flying in the face, gusts of wind, and protects from possible injuries that may occur due to impacts on the branches of bushes and trees when driving through the forest. The windshield does not break from impacts and takes its original shape. It is so strong that if suddenly "Taiga Varyag 550" turns upside down, it will remain intact.
