Waaaasup? Let the rumors start flying. I know a lot of you guys are getting new 20's and that's real nice and all, but that ****s old AF.
A little birdie told me to hold out for 21.
Post all hearsay, conjecture and hyperbole here.

My 17 has 4300 miles and counting and my warranty will be up this year......
can’t wait for 22.
Bnorth - was thinking about in the same lines as you,
What is the life span of a model these days? I remember when the XP got the e-tec, had an 09, still have a 12. Never got an XM. Will be looking to snowcheck this spring.

I suspect that we're near the end of the G4 product cycle, they just released a halo model with the Summit Expert which is similar to the T3 package a couple of years before the end of the XM. My guess would be that next year will introduce a 175 version of the Expert and then we'll see some more refinement to the same basic chassis with new plastics for 2022. Maybe we'll get LED headlights and a little more sophisticated display and a move to make all Summit tunnels short like the Experts. The halo level trim package will go away for a couple of years and then we'll see another one in 2025.

Received my Expert 165 Saturday.........now the wait for snow begins. Waiting for the next whiz-bang model just means you ride the old tech another year.......no thanks.

Life is short, ride the good stuff!

Expert model is a really nice package to keep guys interested. I agree that 2021 will see a 174 expert and probably a short tunnel freeride. Manufactures seem to take turns releasing a complete new sled and 2021 I would guess polaris will have something big followed by Skidoo in 2022. Seems like a 5year cycle is the time frame for Skidoo and Polaris, with Cat being a wild card these days.

You might see new plastics and BNG in 2022, maybe they will call it a G5.


I would be very surprised if they did not do something similar to the expert like they did when the T3 was released.
