Less maintenance time as Polaris’ electric powertrain details emerge 

Farmers can now forget about oil changes, filter replacements, spark plugs and clutch maintenance as the Polaris all-electric Ranger XP Kinetic is set to be a game changer in the market of powertrains.

According to a company spokesperson, the unmatched horsepower and torque gives customers the power they need, and when they need it, for the ability to tow 1,134kg and haul 567kg effortlessly. 

Added to this it’s understood that scheduled maintenance of the UTV will be 70% less than average maintenance costs for similar fuel-powered vehicles. According to Steve Menneto, president of Polaris Off-Road, the RANGER XP Kinetic unlocks the benefits of electrification. With fewer moving parts charging the UTV will be easy as the company suggests that the three-seat model requires a 120V or 240V outlet to do the job.  

A 12V cargo box outlet is convenient for powering accessories like sprayers or charging portable batteries. Ranger XP Kinetic also features 35.5cm of ground clearance to rise over obstacles confidently. A new shifter design includes high, low, neutral and park. The UTV additionally features a new, integrated switch for forward and reverse. This brings tasks such as changing direction much simpler as it is done by the flip of a switch.   

The Ranger XP Kinetic will be available in dealerships across Ireland in summer.
