Everything we LOVE and HATE about the ELECTRIC Ranger!

The 2023 Polaris Ranger Kinetic is here, and we spent a few hours playing with the electric utility side-by-side in Alabama. Here are the five things we love and hate about the new machine!

Weird didn't talk about the specifics of range and charge time.... like probably the most important things besides cost which also wasn't gone into.

[@atomicsmith]

The base has 45 mile range the top tier has 80. Very few people drive a UTV more than 20 miles in a day. From zero it would take about 10hrs. Most charges will take about 3-4 charges.

[@dfreadhoff]

Its range is farther then yours. It is always full in the morning. Both non issues. Now the price, that is a true concern!

[@adamkershaw2314]

we usually put 50-100 miles a day on ours. not sold on it yet for that reason. @@atomicsmith

[@jackmeoff9299]

​@@atomicsmithyep most people won't go any further than that if they purchase it for yard work😂 but if you are looking to go riding also that range isn't going to cut it😂

[@Familyof4WD]

So no changing and maintaining belts on this thing?

[@azorenguiderobert]

It needs a bigger battery at least 50 kwh and fast charge option

[@charlesolrich5898]

Cost= the equivalent of a broom handle being rammed where the sun don’t shine without any Vaseline! Fortunately I was born with a spare kidney!!!

[@dcranch4820]

Ranger EVs are NOT silent. Lots of motor whine. Ive owned 2 of them. Battery life sucks on the non lithium and are about $400 each to replace.

[@johncantone40]

Deep can it go through water?

[@Thebackson]

I love the idea of it, but it is way overpriced. and they need a crew version for me to be interested.

[@criminal__8615]

how long will the batteries last before they need changing over

[@JD-yx7be]

depends on how many charge cycles and battery chemistry. A NCM battery is typically 1000-1500 charge cycle range before it drops below 70% of original capacity. A LFP chemistry is 2500-3500

[@matriximaster]

Ill take the Kandi Cowboy for $10k...

[@ericwiltz6584]

You said nothing about the cost!

[@kevink9106]

Overpriced
