Polaris Off Road Vehicles
Whether it's for utility or recreation, Polaris has a complete lineup of the hardest working, smoothest riding ORVs that let our riders go anywhere and do anything.

[@strykerstruckgaming8007]

I own the 24 rzr xp 1000 ultimate and I cannot say enough about this unit. It is by far the most well rounded sxs on the market today. It has everything you need for your style of riding.

[@HappyRZRrider]

I should be picking up my 2024 RZR Pro XP 4 around August. I just sold my 2020 RZR XP 4, but gotta sell my boat first. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@EC_ATV_Outdoors]

Ive owned 4 brands. All systems have plus/minus.
I do live the Polaris AWD, but my inly complainy is engagement. You can leave it on permanently, but who wants to or will?
So where i dislike it is if you hauling down an ioen lighing road and up a head looks pike awd would be a bemefit. It eill not engage unless you're under soany rpm, which tends to be roughly 18-20kmh.
So the awd is useless in on the fly engagement at any mid+ speed. You can flip tye seitch, but then must sliw down until it engages.
Not a big deal in technical trails, but like i said, imaging going 80kmh and having to drop to 20 to have it engage

I want to see 5,000 mile durability test with maintenance costs.

[@jeffwilliamson7831]

Why don't you have the Can-Am Maverick there it's basically the same vehicle with three cylinders not a twin or a single cylinder

[@Dreamscythe1]

im thinking because these 3 are all trailing arm long travel machines and the maverick is not, then the x3 is a turbo machine and not in the same class as these

[@devrus03]

Maverick sport would be comparable not x3

[@EC_ATV_Outdoors]

I don't think the comparable maverick even has the newer front locker. So vusco lock is basically three wheel drive and you have to have 1 full rotation before the pneumatic (visco) kicks in. It's super slow. Even if it has the new locker, it's like the KRX anyways

[@bofadeesenuts]

Kawasaki all the way, best ride quality! Polaris you just paying for the name. Kawasaki has a gps unit too why didn't you show that off mr. polaris guy?

[@OffroadVeterans-fk4pu]

Is that AWD capability new for 2024 or was it there in previous model years?

[@EC_ATV_Outdoors]

Been around forever it's "legendary"

[@MikeYonkman]

The Honda and Kawasaki are noticeably quieter than the XP driving in the radius test.
My 2024 XP ultimate is nice but very noisy over 90 decibels. More noise than my 2019 xp turbo dynamix.
No help from Polaris.

[@markflaugh2293]

So what guys that work at Polaris brought their person machines in so you could compare them to the XP? 😂

[@Loop307]

Ahhh ahhhh ahhhh ahhh and ahhhh
