Construction & Design:

The PowerStep Xtreme is built with premium materials designed to withstand the rigors of off-road driving and severe weather.

Attention to detail in engineering includes dual motor drive technology, which delivers more torque and reliable operation compared to single-motor designs. The aggressive tread pattern on the stepping surface enhances grip, reducing the risk of slips when entering or exiting the vehicle in wet or muddy conditions.
