Sea-Doo GTX Limited 325 2025 review

For 2025, the Sea-Doo GTX Limited gets a power boost to 325 horsepower—up from the previous 300hp—and introduces the brand’s first-ever touchscreen, a massive 10.25-inch display, the largest yet on a Sea-Doo.

As one of the most expensive models in the market, it comes fully loaded and is expected to continue into 2026 with only minor trim and colour updates.

The GTX Limited shares its 325hp supercharged engine with the RXT-X and RXP-X performance models.

While these models received the high-output 1630cc three-cylinder Rotax engine in 2024, the GTX Limited joins them for 2025, making it one of three Sea-Doos with the most powerful engine in the Jet Ski market:

Notably, the GTX Limited 325 is the first to pair this engine with Sea-Doo’s reverse-thrust debris removal system (IDF), which was previously limited to models producing up to 300hp.

As of now, the IDF system remains exclusive to the GTX Limited 325 and is not available on the RXP-X or RXT-X 325.

The 2025 model also gains the adjustable steering damper setup from the RXP-X, further improving ride customisation.

Another highlight is the 10.25-inch touchscreen which is currently the largest in the jet ski market to date. It was borrowed from Can-Am off-road buggies and the Spyder three-wheel motorcycle, all part of the BRP Powersports group. It’s accompanied by new fingertip controls on the handlebars.

This is Sea-Doo’s first touchscreen, putting it on par with Yamaha’s FX WaveRunner, which has offered 5- and 7-inch screens since 2019. Kawasaki’s latest Ultra series still uses a digital (non-touch) display.

With the upgrades for MY2025, the 2025 GTX Limited 325 is priced at $35,299 in Australia, which is $3235 more than before. That excludes trailer and registration, which typically add about $3000.

It rides on the ST3 platform shared with the Fish Pro, Explorer Pro and GTX 170, and features Sea-Doo’s smart front storage system where the handlebars and console lid lift together, giving easier access to the bow storage compartment.

It’s a genius design and Sea-Doo remains the only jet ski on the market with this clever setup. However, the downside is less bow storage than comparable Yamaha and Kawasaki models.

The bow can hold up to 14kg, just enough for a small anchor and a couple of beach towels. There’s also a small waterproof pocket on the console lid with a USB port for phone storage, however larger phones in cases can be a tight fit. Short charging cables are also a must.

Thanks to the concave bow, the GTX Limited offers a relatively dry ride. However, that same shape can cause the bow to bounce in chop.

With a full 70-litre tank, the ski tracks well. But as fuel weight drops, the bow can get pushed around, making it harder to navigate and control in rougher water.

That said, the GTX cruises effortlessly in smoother water such as rivers and lakes.

We ran four acceleration tests—two in each direction—with a 100kg rider on calm water. Wind speed and direction; air temperature and water current could affect the results, but this is what we got on the day.

The GTX Limited 325 hit 100km/h in 5.03 seconds in an average of four runs and topped out at a top speed average of 116.2km/h.

As a comparison, the Sea-Doo RXP-X 325 RS hit 100km/h in 4.7 seconds with a top speed average of 118.5km/h.

The Kawasaki Ultra 310X (1.5L supercharged) achieved the same in 5.23 seconds with a top speed of 107km/h, while the Yamaha FX SVHO (1.8L supercharged) hit 100km/h in 5.33 seconds with a top speed of 109km/h.

Naturally, performance skis like this consumes more fuel. In our testing, the GTX consumed 65L/100km compared to about 55L/100km on the Yamaha FX SVHO.

The Sea-Doo GTX Limited 325 lifts the bar for luxury and performance in Sea-Doo’s flagship range.

We loved the new touchscreen, updated handlebar controls, Sea-Doo’s epic audio system, the comfortable riding position, large footwells, spacious rear deck, and the smartest bow storage on the market.

If you want supercharged performance with all the trimmings, the GTX Limited 325 deserves a serious look.

Special thanks to Lake & Valley Powersports on the NSW Central Coast for loaning us this ski over two weekends.
