Perfect hunting machine. It will get you to you hunting spot without all the noise. I understand why they make it.
Thats what should happen but......see my comments above
As a hunter that uses a wheelchair this is guna be crazy for me hahaha. We can legally shoot out of something like this.
Can't wait until the prices drop and competition kicks in with alternatives and buy a nice used one 😃
It doesn’t matter what machine you buy, IT SHOULD COME WITH A ROOF AND WINDSHIELD AT NO EXTRA COST. Mainly because of the PRICE YOU PAY
Preach!! Agree with you 💯
If they could sell them WITHOUT the roll cages they would!!! 😂
I agree
I have a 2012 800 xp ranger that I've used on my ranch sense new . We use it daily for many different tasks and havent had much problems .. I have 631 hrs and a little over 1300 miles on it .. 120 miles of range in 1 day is a little much a bench mark.. My 800 isn't bad on fuel but when your working it hard or riding it hard it blows through fuel quick . I think the kinetic has a great place in the market and will be a good ranger for many people.. I sure would try one around our farm especially for fence line work and spraying weeds , lawn care etc.. Also I had to pay extra for a roof and windshield as well . Never understood that . $300 for a roof . Crazy
I can see the pluses to something like this. I think of it as a electric golf cart with a ton more capabilities. I can definitely see golf courses, high end ranches, and communities that allow ev’s on the road. There’s a couple major areas I’m curious about if they can be utilized in those fields: beach lifeguards/first responders and military. Now, beach useage, makes very good since to me and useable around crowds without be disturbing to the public. Now military, I’m not talking front line use. I’m in military aviation and we use GEM car flatbeds on flight lines. The biggest downfall is no tow capacity. These could easily make up for that.
I want one. Can’t wait until technology will allow for fully electric RZR.
INDEED! The performance, no maintenance, reliable…full charge every morning at the cabin. Love it!
I dont understand the sxs prices now days a Northstar crew is 35k the new 1500 Northstar crew is 55k at this price point buy a brand new Colorado ZR2 or jeep Rubicon.
Oh heck ya. Prices are insane. I kinda feel like there might be a resurgence of small bore ATVs or even sport quads less than 10 grand coming.
Price is crazy 😮
Yessss
Really great, well detailed and honest review done by someone who is clearly very knowledgable and observant about the pros and cons and the potential audience/owners. How it appeals and benefits different genres and the real life practicality. You can be blue collar but also successful blue collar ;)
He is HATEFULL on people who like/want electric vehicles.
I'm a member of the 5/30 club. We can wheel al day and never hit 20 miles.
All depends on where you ride I can put 20 miles on mine in less than a hour and I'm sure if you try to take this on uphill technical areas the range will cut in half.
@@fl_atv_riders4455 You obviously dont understand the 5/30 club. 🤣
@@jimmace6148 am I supposed to?
Great idea for work on the dairy farm, plowing the driveway, keeping the chicken feed moving, working the garden etc. nice off trail support offered up in the State of Michigan. Not much in the way of even a Hill in Michigan so very practical there. Good news for Zero Motorcycles which definitely has work to do in the motorcycle market to stay relevant. CanAm definitely competing on price no problem now of course. Long $hmc Honda Motor Corporation strong buy which actually does have product people can buy and is better than anything out there still. Sounds expensive until you buy a pure BEV car or Truck and it stops working.
Looks like it uses a J1772 charge connector. Pretty common configuration. Curious about the charge time on it.
You guys should take the new 4 seater ranger XD 1500 out for a trail ride/camping trip like you did for the Wolverine
Can it be charged with a portable generator?
Keep it!!!
I took one for a test drive this afternoon and in sport mode it could only get up to 30 miles per hour! I asked the sales guy and he said that's around the top speed? Could anyone else chime in on this? It was on flat ground obviously...🤔
That's not true. These things fly. 110 horsepower.
You weren’t on the kinetic, Polaris has another electric ranger that uses golf cart type batteries. And yeah it’s slow.
I was on the kinetic but I've been told by another dealership that they have to get it out of Granny mode once it's been shipped to them. Apparently this other place didn't know about how to unlock it maybe?
Can’t find any dealers that know anything or have this unit. I want to buy so where to get it!
I ordered mine the first day, Dec 20, 2021. I was notified by my dealer that they are not delivering the Premium, but I can take an Ultimate next month, Nov 2023. I said yes but now have to sharpen my pencil on my budget;( I picked up my Taiga electric snowmobile last month and while I was at the dealer in Fridley MN they had a Kinetic waiting for the owner to pick up, so they do exist!
Looks like the rear box is a good size, which is great, as it will be needed to carry your generator, power cord, and gas can(s) as standard equipment for when this electric golf cart leaves you in deep in the woods! Lol. Nice concept for someone staying at their camp, and wants to venture out to pick up some firewood and return before it runs out of juice - then charge it at the camp. May be good on a farm or acreage as well. As Albert Einstein stated "Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can only be transformed from one form to another". Cheers.
Key market would be farms and ranches.
I have a camo 2016 Ranger EV Li Ion. Doubt it has more than a hundred hours on it, but it's still going strong. Probably need new batteries and tires (lot's of thorns here) It has more than enough power and distance for me. I thought the 25K I paid was ridiculous. For 50K I'd be looking at a hybrid Jeep Wrangler. Four wheel drive, full cab, heat and air (and everything else) and you can drive it on road. I plan on keeping my 2016. A new Jeep would be a little more $$, but you get a lot more.
I would see these more in provincial parks or municipalities that are switching to electric vehicles to be more eco friendly, for a everyday consumer 40k is allot for a sxs
Makes sense.
You didnt say anything about the water on electronics issue they have.
My Polaris dealer in central Minnesota told me they pressure washed the 1 Polaris Kinetic SxS they have after 2 different rides and it quit working for 24hrs til it dried out.........
They sold out of the 23 year model you can still buy the 24 year model
I wonder what the range is like ice fishing in January when it's 20 below 0? Curious if it's going to be like the tesla's that got stranded at charging stations for 8 days last winter in North Dakota, it was too cold for the batteries to even take a charge
Hoping we will have this one through the winter so we can report on range.
@dirttraxtv I can't help but wonder why an engineer hasn't developed a low draw warming blanket for these batteries during winter. I imagine we will see that, or something like it in the auto sector first.
Tesla battery packs are liquid cooled/heated. The same goes for most modern EVs.
The international space station runs on lithium-ion batteries at -250oF. Stories about cold weather battery operation are fake news. My Tesla has no trouble charging or operating in northern Wisconsin. Norway has thousands of electric cars on the road operating above the arctic circle. If you want to see a motor that is difficult to use in cold weather, try a diesel - but pre-heat with your battery power and bring a can of ether. :-)
Once people start adding light bars, whips, winches, and a bunch of other accessories, range will plummet.
Pretty sure the accessories run off a different battery than the motor.
Nope, it wont. Power draw is much much lower for those accessories
Weight compared to gas model?
If I remember right, it’s not nearly as bad as expected. Yes it is heavier but it’s not like it’s 1,000lbs more.
We have a scale. I'll see if we can get it hung up this week.
Best feature, you can use your EV connection to charge.
by owning one am i a silent sport person now
What about driving through water? How deep of water can you drive through?
Answered this already...
We have many creeks to go through how will that work out.
You can.
I have one 2024 Ultimate left in stock. Hit me up. Head Motor Company in Missouri.
Get a Kandy Cowboy all electric for $10K!
It's a bit expensive for something that won't make full day of riding. Seems like a good farm or construction site machine.
It's crazy these things cost more than a used vehicle.
🤔
More than a new one
So am I supposed to carry a generator in the back or tell me where the charge station in the middle of nowhere
We've been using ours quite a bit. The range isn't huge but we aren't doing 80 mile days every day. For working around our place and going out for a few hours ride it has been great. End of the day we plug it in so it is ready for the next day. If you're a multi day big mile rider, this vehicle was never meant for you.
$40 thousand ??? What planet are we living on? I am sure its nice, but $40 thousand??
Pricing is nuts, but they've sold every single one so far. Someone's got the money for these.
@@dirttraxtvYou can buy a Chevy Bolt for $27k and it would cost significantly more to manufacture than this thing. Extremely overpriced.
One fatal flaw with these batteries is the charging hygiene and inevitable degradation. Consider speaking to those metrics when accepting promotional campaigns.
As compared to mechanical degradation that happens to any complex machine? There are Tesla’s that are over 10yrs old with more than 500,000 miles, that have less than 10% battery degradation. I think you’ll be fine.
Im going to sell one to every hunter in central Florida 🤙🏼
Not if they take it for a test drive.......loud as heck
Uh.......no! Its not silent! Did you hear the drive train whine when he took off?! You ought to hear the cooling fan kick on after a half hour. Definitely cannot be used for hunting. I found out after I paid $35k for this POS and Polaris refused to tke it back because "they are all loud". Thankfully my dealer sold it to someone else. If you need a $40k electric cart to ride around in,then fine. But listen to it before you buy and frighten every deer,turkey and hog in your area.
I have the same issue. There is NO WAY to hear the tires on the road - the whining of the "electric motor" is just too loud!!
The electric motor WHINES!! If you want QUIET like a typical EV car, you WILL NOT get it. I'm thinking of returning mine.
I wouldn't waste my money especially at that price.
I would have to say garbage for any hunter. Most hunters go back far in the woods and stay for a few days maybe even a week or more. This will never be any good for that unless you have a power sourse there to recharge the battery.
Probably not best for that type of buyer.
Do you think a generator and 5 gallons of gas would fit in the bed, or would you need to pull a trailer to bring a generator and stay a week
Down here on the East coast maybe 10-20miles deep and your hunting. Why wouldn’t that work?
@@benblazek3305 I would say just get an XP1K instead. If you're already thinking you'll need a genny, this probably isn't for you.
@@joshc606 It would work great for that.
Yep lots of charging stations out in the woods people just keep getting stupider every day
When you get home, you plug it in, and it’s ready to go the next day. I have an electric dirt bike, and it’s no problem.
Haters gunna hate. Stay back there in the last century with your loud, stinky exhaust. Chicks dig batteries. 😂
As a Polaris guy…I am going to do a hard pass on this one.
Luckily there's an offroad vehicle for just about anyone in the Polaris lineup.
I will stick with a gasoline engine more reliable and dependable me and my buddy's will never buy electric manufacturers will not sell many of these units
Did you here they are sold out for 2024? EV in side by sides is perfect for a ton of people that just need a no maint plug and go.
Yeah, they sold out all of these and I think there's like a waiting list. Remember, just because you and your buddies don't want it doesn't mean other guys aren't lining up for it.
@@dirttraxtv only a liberal would say that you wouldn't say that if polaris didn't pay you to speak good about their products
@@michaelmiracle2259 gosh darn liberuls. yeah no just because you dont like electric dosnt mean other people dont, stop being so ignorant. tesla is selling faster than they can make them, and so are these so the demand is there weather you want one or not
Remember folks, people like this are allowed to vote.
Don’t charge it below zero. Better yet don’t buy this if you live in cold climate
You couldn't be more wrong. They have a thermal management system and sealed insulated batteries. The vehicle warms the batteries up to operating condition automatically. Will always start no matter how cold...can't say the same for combustion Ranger. Unless you drive more than 60 miles a day, this Ranger is better at everything.
@@dfreadhoff so you can confirm it has built in battery heaters ? If so the cold weather range would be more so effected
NO ELECTRIC
NO INTELLIGENCE
Ah yes, the environment saving e.v. sbs. Taking the joy out of trail riding one machine at a time. No one care about the torque when it sounds like George Jetson's grocery getter.
