Polaris' new Ranger Kinetic all-electric UTVs are something I've been paying close attention to since their launch, as I believe they hold the key to revolutionizing a few industries I love. Chief among them, hunting, where silence and stealthiness are paramount, and those are the chief attributes of anything electric.
I know the good folks at Maui Nui Venison loved theirs for those abilities, specifically for their night operations.
But as with everything that's new and innovative, there are always going to be bumps in the road. Well, maybe not really a bump as much as the risk for fire. And that's unfortunately the case with Polaris, as the company recently issued a recall for the Ranger XP Kinetic and Pro XD Kinetic because a part can break and cause the whole thing to set ablaze.
