2013 Polaris Sportsman 400 HO Blue Fire Features and Benefits

Hardest Working

SPORTSMAN 400 H.O. FULL-SIZE BEST-VALUE ATV – The full-size Sportsman 400 H.O. is the best value ATV on the market. Built with the same full-size chassis as the Sportsman 500 H.O., it delivers improved ride and handling, the reliable power of a 455cc liquid-cooled engine, a great value in ATVs.

ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) – True AWD keeps you moving, automatically engaging all four wheels when you need more forward traction and reverting back to 2WD when you don’t. Other ATVs use a limited-slip differential, engaging only three wheels.

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 (or storage cover).

AGGRESSIVE DESIGN WITH LOCK & RIDE – A new, more aggressive body style gives the Sportsman an intimidating look and clear sight lines for the driver. Integrated front stroage and Lock & Ride compatiable rear rack make it easy to carry gear.

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.

Big Towing Power – The Sportsman lives up to its Hard Working reputation with a 1,225 lb. towing capacity, so you can tow trailers loaded with material and equipment.

 

Smoothest Riding

HIGH GROUND CLEARANCE – A full 11.25″ of obstacle-clearing ground clearance lets you tackle some of the tougher terrain that comes your way.

LEGENDARY SMOOTH INDEPENDENT REAR SUSPENSION (IRS) – The Sportsman was the world’s first ATV with IRS, a feature that made it as popular as it is today. Its rock-solid design has 9.5″ of travel to minimize body roll and keep the ride smooth.
