600 polar
quieter. cleaner. more economical.
Representative of a new generation. Pioneer and milestone. Dream machine. This is what can happen when a manufacturer develops a snow groomer in close cooperation with its customers. With the PistenBully 600 Polar, we have jointly succeeded in setting new standards. In terms of power and performance. In efficiency, operation and comfort. The PistenBully 600 Polar is lighter than any other in its class. And more environmentally friendly.
The PistenBully 600 Polar is more than just a normal snow groomer. It stands not only for perfect slopes, but also for sustainable and efficient slope management at the very highest level.
Highest power output in its class due to low dead weight, more power and higher torque. For better climbing ability and more thrust performance.
Joystick for intuitive control with just one hand. Clear iTerminal with simple operation. Driver's seat, steering wheel and armrest as ergonomic operating unit.
It was the first to meet the requirements of EU emissions stage V. With diesel particulate filter. For reduced exhaust emissions and low fuel consumption. Compact and easy to maintain.
Relief for the driver thanks to newly developed assistance systems. With intelligent automatic functions. For simple handling, easy working and improved slope quality.
“The visuals are convincing. But what is really sensational is the operation with the new joystick. This is a real innovation! Even a novice can quickly get to grips with operating the blade and milling at the same time.

As flexible as a Swiss army knife, our undercarriage in combination with the chain can be adapted to all customer requirements and thus offers the perfect solution for every application, regardless of what is important: thrust, climbing ability, turning ability, transport or heavy additional equipment.
The combination equipment carrier is the "one for all" solution. Thanks to the SlopeTracer, it can follow the slope both parallel and depending on the ground. The Autotracer provides additional lateral support and perfect tracking. Thus another must-have for the perfect slope.
Packed with stronger cylinders, load holding valves and pipe breakage protection, the new quick-change system enables the highest attachment torques required for snow canon transport or pipe maintenance. Of course, the unrestricted mobility is still maintained.
Wider, higher and stronger best describe the Polar blade. Designed for our most powerful PistenBully, it guarantees optimum grooming results and durability in the toughest applications or when transporting snow canons thanks to the standard mounting bracket.
The driver is the center of attention. This guiding principle is realized in our cab with comfort, ergonomics and intuitive operation. Thanks to generous glazing, perfect arrangement and ideal LED illumination, visibility is perfect, especially at night.
For a steady hand and safe handling in every driving situation: driver's seat, armrest and joystick are firmly connected. An ergonomic and comfortable unit. Individually adjustable to the driver. Enables fatigue-free operation, even when driving in rough terrain.
High quality and easy to clean interior trim. New floor assembly. Both with innovative thermal insulation and significantly improved soundproofing, making the PistenBully 600 Polar quieter than ever before. Optimized ventilation in the center console ensures a perfect interior climate - with comfort automatic air conditioning for the first time on request, plus plenty of space and freedom of movement.
Ergonomic and freely movable in all directions. For intuitive control. The joystick's four axes allow four simultaneous movements of the blade. And proportional control of the attachments. All with just one hand.
SNOWsat snow depth measurement provides a precise overview of the snow situation in the ski area. Only if you know the snow depths everywhere on the slopes can you move snow in a targeted manner. The result: perfect slopes for your guests every day, increased productivity, enormous cost savings, careful use of resources and increased work and operational safety.
But: SNOWsat is more than just snow depth measurement. Discover all SNOWsat solutions!
10-inch display with touch control. Clear and easy to use. All active vehicle parts are highlighted in color. With quick navigation option via symbols. Completely prepared for SNOWsat.
Precise steering: The semi-steering wheel is infinitely adjustable side-to-side and fits comfortably in the hand. The driver effortlessly steers the PistenBully and finds the most important functions directly in the steering.
As an option to the steering wheel: Stick control for direct handling and steering. A thumb dial potentiometer regulates travel speed.
Significantly more power and torque than its predecessor despite lower fuel consumption. Long range thanks to larger tank volume (300 l) for efficient and economical operation.
Environmentally friendly pioneer: With the clean 6-cylinder engine with 520 hp including diesel particulate filter, the PistenBully 600 Polar was the first snow groomer in the world to meet EU Stage V.
Compact engine with simple design. Fewer complex components and improved access. Thus clear, easy to maintain and less prone to faults and errors.
Assistance systems
Rear implement carrier with intelligent, active steering assistance. Possible in both rigid position (fixed) and floating position (relieved). When activated the tiller follows the 600W in the same curve radius. Automatic countersteering on side slopes. For automatic support and relief of the driver!
Intelligent control of the rear implement carrier. Can be used like a parallel tool carrier via software. Ensures perfect ground adaptation of the tiller in hilly terrain and automatically adjusts the milling depth. The patented SlopeTracer simplifies operation and enables very large movement radii.
snow depth measurement
The high-precision snow depth measurement helps the operator detect slope areas with small amounts of snow and identify snow reserves – under, in front of and on both sides of the vehicle. This way snow can be pushed with precision and maximum quality can be achieved for the slope structure. Increases productivity while conserving resources and helping to preserve the environment.
