Arctic Cat's diesel-fueled ATV is equipped with an in-line 700-twin cylinder, SOHC diesel engine that provides 50% greater fuel mileage over similarly powered conventional ATVs with a peak torque reaching 2,300 rpm. The engine runs efficiently on DF 1, DF 2, DF A Arctic, JP 5, JP 8 and up to B20 Bio Diesel fuels, and features a glow plug pre-heater assist for starting.

The 700 Diesel's first scheduled engine rebuild is suggested at 10,000 hours, amounting to more than 100 years of riding for the average ATV user.
