2027 Lynx Shredder—Conquer the Backcountry
Built to excel where deep snow and steep terrain test both machine and rider, the 2027 Lynx Shredder brings a design that blends powder agility with serious power. Purpose‑built for backcountry and big‑mountain riders, this sled thrives in soft snow with minimal drag and maximum control, helping you climb, carve and shred with confidence.
Design & Deep‑Snow Performance
At its core, the Shredder’s chassis and suspension are optimized for powder. A tapered tunnel and elevated running boards reduce drag deep in the snow, while the LFS DS front suspension and PPS³ DS rear suspension work together to improve floatation, responsiveness, and handling precision where it matters most. The sled’s narrower ski stance and lightweight Blade DSS skis further enhance agility and sidehill control.
Powertrain Options
Depending on your riding style and the terrain you tackle, the Shredder comes with a range of high‑performance Rotax E‑TEC engines. The 600RR E‑TEC is lightweight, snappy, and perfectly suited for deep‑snow exploration, while the 850 E‑TEC and 850 E‑TEC Turbo R provide powerful 2‑stroke performance with strong throttle response, ideal for climbing and aggressive riding. The Turbo R variant delivers up to approximately 180 hp, maintaining ample power even at elevation, making it perfect for steep lines and high‑output performance in the most demanding snow conditions.
Suspension & Handling
Deep snow performance is enhanced by premium KYB Kashima coated shocks, available in more advanced packages like the Shredder RE, which adds even greater adjustability and damping capability for rough terrain and big jumps. The combination of optimized suspension geometry, narrow ski stance, and lightweight track options makes the 2027 Shredder both nimble and stable in powder.
Features & Comfort
The Shredder’s performance is matched by a host of modern features designed for comfort and convenience. Premium LED lighting ensures excellent visibility in variable conditions, while the SHOT electric starter and optional touchscreen display (with BRP Connect and built-in GPS) add high-tech functionality on select trims. Riders also benefit from heated throttle lever and grips, an adjustable brake lever, and deep‑snow‑optimized seating for longer, more comfortable rides in challenging terrain.
The Shredder is available in multiple packages to suit different rider needs. The Shredder Core serves as an entry-level deep-snow sled, offering proven performance for everyday powder riding. The Shredder DS adds enhanced deep-snow capability with a 76 mm track and upgraded features for riders seeking more control and versatility. At the top of the line, the Shredder RE features premium shocks, a narrow stance, and the highest-performance components, making it ideal for aggressive riders tackling extreme terrain.
