The only difference between the Nautilus T618 2018 and 2016 Treadmills is the overall color they are finished in, with the 2018 model being designed in a sleeker-looking all-black color compared to the 2016 treadmill’s grey/silver color.

Apart from the color, the Nautilus T618 2018 and 2016 are the exact same treadmills with the same high-end features and quality construction including a powerful 3.5 chp motor, large robust 2.75” crowned rollers and light-commercial gym-quality 3-ply Tyre belt – all of which combine to provide smoothness of operation, increased traction and extended belt life.

The running surface on the Nautilus T618 2018 and 2016 Treadmills measures a generous 60” long by 20” wide and features a Rebound Cushioning System for a more comfortable workout.  The cushioning system softens the landing to reduce the impact on your joints, while at the same time helping to propel kick-off at the back of your stride.

The Nautilus T618’s high-performing 3.5 chp motor is optimized to respond immediately as you adjust the pace and maintains full running speed throughout the treadmill’s 0-12 mph speed range.  For additional challenge and a more intensive workout, the T618 also features a motorized adjustable incline range of 0-15%.  Both the incline and speed range are easily adjustable with In-Reach controls built into the performance handrails.

To keep your workouts varied, the Nautilus T618 Treadmill features 26 performance training programs that include workouts for intervals, training, weight management, heart-rate and custom programs.

See what some customers who have bought either the Nautilus T618 2018 or 2016 Treadmills have to say about them:

A.C.:
“Very robust treadmill that went together easily enough with the included tools.  Took around 1 hour to assemble.  The T618 is very sturdily designed  – as good as those I have used in local health clubs.  Using it every day and so far everything works and we’re very happy with this treadmill. Highly recommended.”

M.M.:
“The Nautilus T618 is a solid treadmill, quiet in operation and comfortable to run on.  I use it in sync with the Run Social app and love it.  Took us just over an hour to assemble with easy-to-follow instructions, but bear in mind this is heavy to move.  Overall, I would recommend.”

J.V.:
“This treadmill was fairly easy to assemble and set-up.  The treadmill controls are easy to understand.”
