2024 Sea-Doo GTR-X gets insane 300-horsepower upgrade

The entry point to Sea-Doo’s supercharged range just got a major boost, with the GTR 230 to be joined next year by the new GTR-X with 300 horsepower.

Sea-Doo has given its entry-level supercharged range a major boost with the new GTR-X – with 300 horsepower – to be sold alongside the GTR 230.

The 2024 Sea-Doo GTR-X was unveiled in the US overnight, powered by the 300hp version of the 1630cc three-cylinder Rotax engine.

It also gains a two-piece racing seat for performance riding, and “low-rise” race-style handlebars (though are not adjustable).

Sea-Doo claims the GTR-X can do 0 to 60mph (just shy of 100km/h) in about 4 seconds.

The current-generation Sea-Doo GTR 230 was unveiled in 2019 as a 2020 model.

This is its first major update since then, and swaps its familiar yellow and black colour scheme with all-black bodywork, with silver and blue highlights.

The 2024 Sea-Doo GTR-X 300 and 2024 Sea-Doo GTR 230 are due in Australian showrooms by the end of this year, pending any delays.

Prices in Australia (excluding trailer and registration) are as follows:

  • 2024 Sea-Doo GTR-X 300 RS: $26,664
  • 2024 Sea-Doo GTR 230 (SS): $23,364
  • 2024 Sea-Doo GTR 230: $22,364
