The Electrifying Ranger EV

28 Jan 2010

Polaris has introduced the world’s first 4 x 4 electric utility vehicle, the all-new Ranger EV electric Side-by- Side. Sharing the same chassis as the Ranger 400 it has many of the features of its full size counterparts: On-Demand True All-Wheel Drive with VersaTrac, Independent Rear Suspension, high ground clearance and the longest suspension travel in its class.

The Ranger EV features the largest battery pack in the industry (11.5kW) and the longest range of any electric midsize. It’s built for clean and quiet operation with a 30 hp electric motor , 35-45 mile range, an electrifying 25mph top speed and two hours of riding time between charges making it ideal for any uses where silent running is a real bonus such as estate and Local Authority work, groundscare, horticulture, golf course or equestrian.

For sensitive terrain the Ranger EV has Versa Trac turf mode which unlocks the rear differential giving one wheel, rear wheel drive to prevent damage and to better navigate tight areas. The unit features three modes: High for speed, Low for towing and hauling and Max for maximum range.

There is 567kg (1,250lb) towing capacity and a 226.7 kg (500lb) Lock and Ride cargo box. The 48-volt AC induction motor provides the high performance with low maintenance and is charged using a standard socket. The Ranger EV comes with a certified Roll-Over Protection Structure and offers 25.4 cm (10 inch) ground clearance.

Polaris Ranger 400 Small but perfectly formed

The Polaris Midsize Ranger 400 may be a small Side-by-Side utility vehicle but it lives up to the Ranger promise of ‘hardest working’ with real work capabilities such as over 226kg (500lbs) of cargo capacity and 567kg (1,250lbs) of towing capacity. Offering real value for money the Ranger 400’s smaller size and 455cc high output engine make it an ideal partner for farming, shooting, maintaining acreage or taking a leisurely trail ride. It boasts 29hp and a top speed of 40mph offering plenty of get-up-and-go to haul feed to livestock, or get you to a favourite hunting or shooting spot. Its On Demand True All-Wheel Drive ensures it can tackle muddy pastures or rutted, rough tracks, while the Versa Trac turf mode makes sure you don’t tear up the grass. Complementing its hard work ethic the Ranger 400 has features such as Independent Rear Suspension, long suspension travel and high ground clearance to ensure a smooth ride and less fatigue for the driver and passenger. There is a line-up of Pure Polaris products including Lock & Ride accessories, cabs, snow ploughs and a speed-regulating Speed Key. It may be small but the Ranger 400 is tough with all the features needed to get the job done. Priced at £6,199 exc VAT it makes an economical contribution to work and leisure and is priced below many other quad ATV’s on the market. National Farmers Union Scotland members also receive a 5% special discount on the Ranger 400.
