Motorized snow vehicles have a long history in Canada and many other northern countries beginning in the early 20th century. These vehicles, which date from 1968-1993, represent a variety of themes in the history of the snowmobile in Canada. At the other end of the consumer spectrum from the Sno-Pony is the Thundercat. This machine was one of the fastest and most powerful available at the time. Considered a “muscle-sled,” it was intended to appeal to those snowmobilers for whom speed is the most important characteristic. Snowmobile website like Snowgoer claim that it was an instant classic when it was introduced. It has a 900 cc, 3 cylinder engine made by Suzuki. Its competitors include similarly powerful machines made by Bombardier and Polaris.

The Suzuki 900 cc 3 cylinder engine produces 175 horsepower, is powered by three Mikuni VM-38 fuel injection carburetors, and is liquid cooled.The water pump is activated by a gear and lubrication is done by oil injectors. The vibration caused by the powerful engine is greatly reduced by balancing crankshafts. The front suspensions is composed of an Artctic Cat Wishbone Suspension 3 which comprises stabilizer bars arranged in a triangle, an adjustable helical spring, and shock absorbers. The suspension is installed outside of the hull and provides shock absorption up to 7 inches. This snowmobile is equipped with a series of accessories, such as: high beams, break lights, reflectors, a windshield, and a heated steering wheel and seat. It also has a comprehensive dashboard with a speedometer, tachnometer, odometer, temprature indicator, gauges for gas and oil levels, emergency breaks, shutter control for departures, and a security key with a cord. This vehicle also has adjustable handlebars. Its fuel tank can hold up to 42 liters. (ref.4)
