Polaris Patents Electric Youth ATVs and UTVs, and Has 'Return Home' for Parents

There's a major concern about the state of the powersports industry: getting kids onto machines again. While I don't personally ascribe to the idea that "The youths don't like powersports anymore!" based on the reality I've witnessed, I do think that whatever we can do to encourage youth participation should…

Youth ATV Maker Issues Recall That Makes You Seriously Question Its Credibility

Some recalls come down to a simple design mistake or an area that was overlooked. For example, the roll cages of some recent Polaris RZR models were rendered dangerous due to some fasteners that weren't tightened correctly—not an egregious oversight, but it still had serious consequences.

Polaris Adventures Will Now Offer Weather Insurance for Your Off-Road Escapades

I think a lot of insurance is a borderline scam. The worst is when you're just trying to buy a flight and by the end of checkout, you have an overbearing fear that you'll lose your luggage, incur some kind of financial issue due to a delayed flight, and/or you'll…

When you buy top-of-the-line UTVs, and make no mistake, that's what Polaris' RZR Pro R and Pro R 4 are, then you want to drive them hard. If you drive a little too hard and flip one over, then it should be no big deal because these things are meant…

CFMoto's New Side-By-Sides Look Ready For Action, Whether It's the Farm or Woods

While I adore the go-fast, send-it side-by-sides on the market—things like Can-Am's Maverick R and X3, as well as Polaris' Pro Rs—the world that birthed them isn't the one that we're living in any longer. The world's become much more expensive since the onslaught of sales occurred during the middle…

Maui Nui Vension Is Solving Hawai'i's Deer Problem With Polaris UTVs and Thermal Scopes

One of my favorite places in the world is Hawai'i. It's beautiful and lush, the food is phenomenal once you get outside the tourist hot spots, and there's a sense of scale that you can't get on anything but an island in the middle of the Pacific.

Polaris' New and Updated Snowmobiles Go Hard

This has been a weird snowmobile season here in Utah. The weather has fluctuated from spring-like temperatures to dumping feet of snow on what feels like a weekly basis. As I write this, it'll be around 50 degrees today. But tomorrow, well, the current forecast says 2-feet of fresh powder.…

Vespa's Owner Is Just Conquering the Market, KTM Should Take Note

For plenty of motorcycle and powersports manufacturers, 2024 was a year to forget, financially speaking. KTM all but imploded, and the cost-saving measures employed by Polaris are bleeding into 2025.

Everything at King of the Hammers Just Got Beat By a UTV

King of the Hammers is, for lack of a better word, batshit. For those who've never heard of it, it's an off-road race in California's Johnson Valley, and marries rock crawling with flat-out open desert racing. There's nothing else on the planet like King of the Hammers.
