FEATURES      

 

 

DUMP BOX

Offers the highest carrying capacity of any 2-up ATV (400 lbs / 18.8 kg) in an easy to dump, deep-sided box.

   

ROLLED INDEPENDENT REAR SUSPENSION (IRS)

Our legendary Sportsman IRS, angled for an even smoother ride for the passenger and to reduce squat while accelerating.

   

TRANSFORMING SEAT

Passenger seat folds up and out of the rear dump box to go from 1-rider work mode to 2-Up play mode in three easy steps.

   

ALL NEW ACTIVE DECENT CONTROL (ADC)
AND ENGINE-BRAKING SYSTEM (EBS)

Work together to electronically monitor and control engine braking to give you optimum control and smooth when moving down hills and steep inclines, even deceleration during descents.

   

ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE

True AWD keeps you moving, even in the toughest conditions, automatically engaging all wheels when you need more forward traction and reverting back to 2WD when you don't.

   

VERSATRAC TURF MODE

When in 2WD, with a flip of the VersaTrac Turf Mode switch, you can unlock the rear differential to reduce steering effort, create easier, tighter turns, and minimize damage to sensitive terrain.

   

ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION (EFI) 500 ENGINE

Provides peak performance, auto-adjusting to altitude and air temperature for faster starts, crisper throttle responses and better fuel economy.
