Available Options

Integrated GPS navigation provides precise, real-time positioning across Antarctica’s vast, featureless terrain. Built-in map guidance ensures safer route planning and confident navigation, even in whiteout conditions or unmarked environments.

ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) is a reinforced safety structure built into the cab designed to protect occupants in case of a rollover.

ROPS Protection Structure

Integrated self-loading capability allows the Panther XL to transport and handle a 20’ container independently—no additional equipment required. Paired with a 2,700 L auxiliary fuel tank and transfer pump, it delivers extended range and true autonomy for long-distance Antarctic missions.

Extra Fuel & 20’ Container Self-Loader

Haul a 20’ container while benefiting from a 2,700 L auxiliary fuel tank with transfer pump to the main tank. This added capacity significantly extends range, enabling longer, uninterrupted missions across Antarctica.

Extra Fuel & 20’ Container

With trailer extensions, the Panther XL can transport two 20’ containers in a single trip. This configuration increases payload flexibility and optimizes logistics for diverse mission needs.

2 × 20’ Containers (with extension)

Equipped with extensions, the platform can carry a full 40’ container, offering maximum load versatility. Ideal for standardized cargo, it streamlines transport and reduces the number of required runs in remote environments.

Panther XL Viewed in Antarctica

This vehicle was first created for a customer operating a research station in Antarctica and needing to carry quantities of fuel and material from the sea bank to their base.

Features

Panther XL

A dedicated front-access platform allows safe, efficient servicing of key components. It minimizes downtime by enabling quick interventions, even in harsh Antarctic conditions.

Front Maintenance Platform

A robust rear platform provides secure access to components behind and above the cab. Designed for stability and ease of use, it simplifies maintenance in remote environments.

Rear Maintenance Platform
Rear Maintenance Platform

Critical daily checks can be performed from ground level; no climbing required. This improves safety, speeds up inspections, and ensures consistent upkeep in extreme cold.

A true cockpit for performance. The Panther XL features a modern, quiet, and spacious cabin designed for long missions in extreme environments. Its ergonomic operator station, intuitive controls, supportive seating, and efficient HVAC system, paired with a compact interior heater and optional sound system, create a comfortable, focused workspace even during extended shifts in Antarctica. For utmost safety, the cab integrates an inactivity alarm linked to the control unit. If no operator input is detected, the system triggers visual and acoustic alerts, and, if unresponsive, gradually slows and stops the vehicle, helping mitigate risks related to fatigue or distraction in isolated, high-stakes conditions.

Cab Comforts

Engineered to the highest standards, the Panther XL delivers dependable performance in the world’s most extreme conditions. Recognizing that Antarctica is exceptionally remote and difficult to access, Prinoth has integrated its most proven systems, along with enhanced checks and safeguards, to ensure maximum reliability and complete peace of mind, especially for these remote locations where maintenance opportunities are limited and mission failure is not an option.
