The authors of this topic hub would like to extend a special thanks to all contributors who helped make this product technically accurate and a credible resource.

The debate surrounding recreational vehicle use and its environmental impacts has intensified in the past few years. A unique collaboration of environmental groups, sports enthusiasts, institutions of higher education and the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) addressed this issue head-on by creating a collegiate design competition to produce snowmobiles that are cleaner, quieter and more environmentally friendly without compromising performance. This competition, the SAE Clean Snowmobile Challenge, generated huge interest from the snowmobile manufacturing industry and the general public and has provided reliable benchmark data for further research. Research and development of cleaner, quieter snowmobiles is ongoing. This hub was developed as a primer for service providers and touring industry personnel to update their knowledge of the issues.
