Key Features:
ON-DEMAND TRUE SIX-WHEEL DRIVE
True AWD keeps you moving, automatically engaging all size wheels when you need more forward traction and reverting back to the rear four wheels when you don’t. Six beefy drive shafts deliver consistent power to all six wheels.
HAUL AND DUMP UP TO 800 LBS.
Large rear box moves and dumps up to 800 lbs. of equipment or material, so you can get big jobs done faster and easier.
IMPRESSIVE TOWING CAPACITY
A big 1,500 lb. towing capacity gives you the power to move all the gear, equipment and material you need out to the job site.
BEEFY 800 EFI POWER
The proven, big-bore 800 twin-cylinder engine gets the job done with 50 HP, and features EFI for fast, reliable starting in any temperature, plus automatic adjustments for altitude.
RAISED RADIATOR PLACEMENT
Radiator is mounted 3″ higher in the chassis an angled rearward to keep it out of mud and you on the trail longer.
NEW! INTEGRATED FRONT STORAGE
The most integrated storage of any ATV. The 6.5 gallon capacity lets you stow-away loads of gear and still have access to it, even with items tied to the deck.
SIX-WHEEL INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION
All wheels articulate independently of one another for maximum traction in changing terrain, with long suspension travel (6.1″).
UNMATCHED LOADED GROUND CLEARANCE
A full 10.5″ of ground clearance helps keep the ride smooth, clearing obstacles and reducing high-centering on rough terrain, even when hauling heavy loads.
ENGINE BRAKING SYSTEM (EBS) AND ACTIVE DESCENT CONTROL (ADC)
Our Engine Braking System (EBS) and Active Descent Control (ADC) work together to monitor and control downhill braking, optimizing control and delivering smooth, even deceleration during descents less than 15 mph.
AGGRESSIVE DESIGN WITH LOCK & RIDE
An aggressive looking body style gives the Sportsman an intimidating look and enhanced sight lines for the driver. The Lock & Ride composite front rack system and matching rear rack make it easy to carry gear.
