A Close Look at the Special Features of the Argo Magnum XF 500 LE

an Argo Magnum XF 500 LE side by side with 2 riders

When outdoor enthusiasts discuss side-by-side ATVs, the Argo Magnum is a name that you often hear. Made by Argo, the renowned manufacturer of the world’s best amphibious ATVs, the Magnum is unquestionably a favorite among adventure seekers.

Argo ATVs are known for their toughness and versatility. They are ideal for off-road adventures, hunting, and work purposes. Argo side-by-side models are designed to conquer even the most challenging terrains and to have the most fun doing it.

An Overview of the Argo Side-by-Side Models

The Argo Magnum XF 500 comes in 2 different model versions: the XF 500 and the XF 500 LE. Both models share many similarities. They feature the same 443cc liquid-cooled engine, the same transmission, suspension, size, weight, and towing capacities.

However, some notable differences set the Magnum XF 500 LE apart from its brother. In this article, we’ll take a look at those extra-special features of the LE version.

Better Control With Electric Power Steering

The Magnum XF 500 LE is equipped with electric power steering, which significantly enhances the driving experience of the ATV. The electric power steering system is more responsive than the standard steering system, allowing for better maneuverability. It reduces the effort required to control the steering wheel, which ensures that the driver’s hands do not get fatigued from driving on long trails.

The advantages of electric power steering is especially noticeable on rough, off-road terrain. With a standard steering system, the steering wheel tends to jerk the driver’s hands from side to side as the front tires bump against ruts, rocks, roots, and other obstacles. With electric power steering, it takes far less effort to hold the wheel steady.

A Serious Front-Mounted Winch

The Magnum XF 500 LE comes with a 3,000 lb. winch on the front. That’s a ton and a half of pulling power! The winch is easy to operate via an electric rocker switch.

Having a winch on hand comes in handy in many different situations, and people have used them ingeniously for a multitude of tasks. They can be used for self-recovery, to pull the Magnum up very steep terrains, or out of muddy riverbanks. Winches can be used for dragging logs, large game, or stuck vehicles. They can be used to pull out fence posts, tension fence lines, drab boats onshore, or to raise a flag.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a farmer, hunter, forester, or just a regular guy, you will find the LE’s front winch to be an empowering piece of equipment. Note that the winch can be added to the standard XF 500 model too, as an accessory.

Premium Tires on Aluminium Rims

The Magnum XF 500 LE features premium Duro Power Grip radial tires on aluminum rims. The tires are aggressively treaded to provide maximum grip even on the most challenging terrains.

The aluminum rims on the Magnum XF 500 LE are lightweight and durable, ensuring that they do not affect the vehicle’s performance. As a bonus, they look downright sharp.

Painted Body Panels for Extra-Good Looks

To add to the ready-for-anything look of the Magnum XF 500 LE, this side-by-side comes with premium painted body panels. The panels are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions so they can maintain their gleam for a long time.

Unlike the Magnum XF 500, which is only available in dark green, the LE model comes in two colors: flame orange, and slate grey. Your choice.
