Here are a few key notes to know about SHOT:
- Adds just 2 lbs.
- You have to start the engine once with the rope, then the rest of the day the Shot kicks in.
- You get just one shot per charge.
- Static charge in the ultra capacitors lasts about 20-25 minutes. (It worked for up to an hour in our experience)
- BRP engineered this. 100 percent BRP invention.
- OEM option on Freeride and Summit. This is mountain-specific. This feature adds $600 to price of vehicle.
- Shot is a restart system. Don’t confuse this with an electric start. It will require pull rope starts at times.
- SHOT activation is one rotation of the crankshaft. E-Tec starts on a short degree of rotation.
- It doesn't crank and try to start like a car or an electric start dirt bike. It just starts.
Shot starts your sled by storing electricity in an “ultra-capacitor” that weighs a mere 2 lbs. That’s a 22 lb savings over traditional electric start systems. But don’t call this an electric start, because it’s not.
