2013 Polaris Sportsman Touring 500 HO Sage Green Features and Benefits

Hardest Working

ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) – Still the best automatic 4×4 system out there, the AWD engages all four tires when the rear wheels slip and you need more forward traction. Reverts back to 2WD when you don’t.

PROVEN POWERPLANT AND CHASSIS – We took our Sportsman 500 H.O.—the best-selling automatic 4×4 ATV of all time—and gave it a longer wheelbase and a plush passenger seat to create a value-packed, 2-up touring machine.

ENGINE BRAKING SYSTEM (EBS) – Works to monitor and control downhill braking to give you optimum control and smooth, even deceleration during descents (less than 15 mph).

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.

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.

 

Smoothest Riding

PASSENGER SEAT COMFORTThe ultra-comfortable seat and backrest are fully padded and contoured for full support, with a slightly raised position so you can see down the trail.

ROLLED INDEPENDENT REAR SUSPENSION (IRS)Starting with 8.75″ of suspension travel, our proven Rolled IRS is angled rearward to keep the ride smooth for you and your passenger and reduce squat while accelerating.
