50-60k for a side by side is insane, just like 100k for a 1500 truck, I know there are the 1% that don't care how stupid these prices are, but these companies won't survive without average people being customers.
I'm fifty years old and ride a 1986 Yamaha Big Bear. As of now my mortgage, 401K and kids college fund take presidency. She burns a little old but runs great. Heated hand grips and a winch.
The four door side by sides always looked wrong to me. They are now the size of cars. So you have something with the wheelbase of a Wrangler/Bronco, the price of a Wrangler/Bronco, but not the convenience, comfort, or cargo space of a Wrangler/Bronco, all on a vehicle that is not street legal in most of the country.
Having used and driven both the size comparison is misleading, the width of these machines is dramatically narrower than any "full size" vehicle and you can't touch the suspension compliance and capability out of the box of these machies. Convience and comfort are subjective - no road based vehicle wil ride anywhere as smooth as these units do on their tuned coilover suspensions. Cargo space comes with size, these are designed to go where fullsize vehicles don't - they offer quite a lot of storage options to bring anything you could ever want with you. It's a different market with different needs - it's not for everyone. They are selling as fast as they can build them, people are voting with their wallets.
@@D3thM3tal they fill the same niche that a kei truck does with less off-road ability, and construction/size wise they're like minitrucks and cj jeeps from 40 years ago. safety/emissions regulations and automakers' need to make everything mass-market have gotten us to the point where this niche is unaddressed. still, they look ugly and ungainly as heck and there are many trails where they don't have the ground clearance or articulation to proceed.
These are for wealthy land-owners who have $100k + pickups, so this $50k Fisher Price quality toy ain't no thing to them. I worked in the powersports industry until early 2020 and $30-35k was the top end price of a factory side by side, so prices have crept up significantly. This thing seems louder than the Ranger Northstar and I think it's because this SUV style cab allows all the engine noise from under the cargo area to reverb through the entire interior. That would get tiring very quickly.
Without even watching the video, no it’s not. You’ve got to pay even more money just to get it to the trailhead! Again, not your fault it’s so expensive, good content!
It would be worth it when you consider it’s capabilities. However, the issue comes in that you’re going to need a $60K+ truck to tow it to trails in places where they’re not street legal. If you’re just using it for ranch work, then you still have to get it from the dealer to your home. When you factor in road trips and regular commutes, it makes more economic sense to just get a 2500 series truck and get an old, used ATV/UTV I used to love going on ATV rides with all my friends before I had my driver’s license. I’d love to do that again, but with how insane the prices are, it probably won’t be in the near future when you consider I need to buy a truck or vehicle capable of hauling it and I need to own a home to store it. I have a pretty decent job and no kids, but I need to plan around affording those other things first.
@@jordanstinson2505 I saw this kind of stuff when I owned apartments in Los Angeles. I had tenants who owned new Escalades and rented one bedroom apartments from me.
An old jeep liberty with 33’s and some aftermarket shocks will still slay that thing. those polaris’ are neat for the first 5 minutes, then it feels like youre riding in a lawnmower
I think the main thing was to make it dust free. I have had multiple SxS and I personally would never pay this much for one but do see where some might.
Maybe on the east coast where there are SXS only off-road parks, but these things make little sense in Colorado/Utah. 1) Colorado and Utah keep banning them 2) a stock highway legal 4wd vehicle has no trouble on most Colorado/Utah trails. With that said, I want a SXS for TN, but won’t ever take it west.
You’re only really getting the shell on the back with the ability to fold down the rear seats for more storage. You can outfit a general or ranger with everything else that was shown. 50-60k is insane!
It all depends what you use it for. A general/ranger will not be nearly as comfortable to ride or be able to cross terrain as fast. Not to mention the additional range with this
I have a TRX, Bronco Big Bend, and a Rubicon Gladiator. None can fit and go where my xpedition goes. We tow it to the trails off load it, and just ride thru the woods along bayou's in Louisiana. Wife can't do heat for medical reasons but wanted to ride with me and the kids, the xpedition North Star solves that problem for us. It's extremely comfortable on trails, the nav is priceless, the radio slams. And it provides peace and smiles for miles. And the price being outdoors as a family is priceless.
I bought a new base General 2 seater Ride Command Edition for a little over $20K in early '19. I have since added about $20K in upgrades and add-ons, (including a high-end plow system, & not counting the price of labor to install all of it). So when comparing it to this 4 seater, with post covid inflation in mind, the price isn't as insane as it first appears. (most other things have nearly doubled in price too)
There's been an ever widening gulf between the price and intrinsic value of vehicles for several years now. But this unit has to have reached unprecedented levels. A final gasp of decadence before a major, long overdue correction in the vehicular markets, and the broader economy hopefully.
We bought a side by side when they first came out. I can’t believe they put power windows and HVAC in a side by side. Insanity. Like a golf cart with cruise control.
That is just crazy. I would go Jeep Wrangler or Ford Bronco anytime above this, given this is the same price. And I agree with Roman about that shifter. Many years ago I rented a Polaris, and that shifter was the same POS as what is in here. Guess work which mode you are in...
Looks like a nice toy, but In addition to the $50-60K for the Polaris, you also need a minimum 5K lb rated tandem axle trailer and at least a 1/2 ton pickup truck (preferably 4x4) to tow the Polaris to where you want to use it. Hummmm...
WOW, it's crazy how far "ATV's" have come since my Honda 350X 3 wheeler back in 1986. But before I'd buy that I would rather have the little Honda truck that you just showed a few episodes back.
A rubber belt as a transmission. Funny how there was one in the back (bed) at the ready. Put the new XD steel belt transmission in this machine at the same price point. or a real gear on gear transmission. Similar to what is in the new CAN AM sport machine.
The overall design looks great, off-road ride quality will be awesome, however still rather small, quality lacking in some areas, not street legal in many states. In conclusion I’m not sure what segment of the off-road market this Polaris is aimed at, perhaps a few ultra-wealthy guys at the gun club to poodle around in. Museum piece.
You also have to factor in what the insurance for this is compared to a jeep. Is the maintenance parts changing out cause of trail damage cheaper than a jeep? Talking new to new. There is a lot more factors to consider than just it costs as much as a new jeep.
The only people forking out $50k+ for these are people that have OHRV resorts/parks nearby with gates intentionally too narrow for on highway off roaders. I expect rental companies to buy up most of these as they are easy to rent at a premium to all the flat landers who show up in their "never seen dirt" jeeps, broncos, and tacomas.
Holy cow! Almost $60k? It’s noisey and cramped looking , plus with wearing helmets it appears not safe? Maybe tippy? UTVs are ridiculously priced imo…less metal and mass than a an actual 4x4 vehicle …almost toy like! I recently bought a 23 Bronco Sasquatch and was torn to spend that kind of money on a vehicle ….i do love the Bronco and its capabilities with features …..but no way would I spend that much on something like this UTV..
Well I’m good, watched 1 min, heard the pure greed price and clicked off. It’s not TFL, I don’t care to watch this one when prices have got so out of control…..
Its made for norther canada and places like utah with lots of trail in the north it could be a life line if it werent so expensive maybe release a bare bones north edition with the cab and hvac system
Really almost 40k to 50k and maybe 60k for that side by side wow what the freak is going on sure it may be something you need for ranch or large property but man that’s just outrageous on the other hand does make sense if some of those trails or roads can’t fit your 70k to 100k suvs or trucks on those back trails wow!!!
We'll need a video showing how it performs in the snow, especially deeper snow where the clearance is put to the test. Climate control is great, but if it can't get out on the trails in the winter, it's just going to sit in the garage.
I don't understand how there is enough of a market for this to be such a thing. If it cost $20k I could see it being somewhat popular among the middle upper class, but they've priced these things so high that they have to sell them for even more because of economies of scale and only ranchers could ever justify one of these, presuming they wouldn't just prefer to have a fleet of old wranglers.
I think this vehicle is awesome, but it will have to find a niche to fit into. Polaris markets it as an overlander, but you have to tow it to the area you're going to camp in. That doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
price 😳 no way! i have 2022 yamaha wolverine x2 and 18 was to much! i would buy a 2 door sasquatch pacakge bronco before i even walked into a polaris dealer. i see you bought an extra belt for it already?
So Polaris is now jumping into the game of making trucks or jeeps or whatever you want to call them. It's basically a vehicle. I can throw blinkers on that and drive. That as my daily.
No its not worth it my 2013 fx4 f150 has 150,000 miles of absolute abuse and work. My 2018 polaris was worn out in 2 years my ford is still in better shape. Polaris deteriorate fast.
sorry for a side by side thats just to much. maybe IF it was road legal but I'm going to need another vehicle to tow it plus I still got to load it with goodies. id rather buy a bronco.
I ride with guys who have side by sides and every once in awhile they roll them over or flip them on their side. Do that on this fancy machine and it's probably totaled
But not as quiet and has a body made like a power wheels. My 2020 ranger is the last machine that’s not Japanese I’ll ever own due to things breaking that Polaris hasn’t improved in years.
5:16 it looks very...top heavy with small wheels. and calling that shelf in the back "luxury" is more than a stretch. Really weird that we've gotten to this point- where ever increasing regulations for on-road vehicles, and the consequent need to sell into the soccermom market to make it all worthwhile, have gotten so far beyond what a simple 4x4 used to be that we end up embiggening ATVs to fill the void.
It’s the right price for the right buyer. I’d be more willing to beat on this than a Bronco. Cause in the end, the Polaris will be cheaper to repair and go further. Further more Polaris adds “blanks” in the dash so you can add lights or other things. Do you really need helmets in this machine lol jkjk I want to see more! Epic trip????
These things are getting all of our offroad trails closed throughout the country. See what just happened in Moab UT, and what is happening in the Mojave in CA. Why draw more attention to them? Side by sides are swarming all over the trails in Colorado and Arizona too, and the drivers everywhere drive like nutjobs--they all think they are racing the baja 1000.
Oh man. 60k. Paid 64 for a 20th Rubi…. Nah. This is for a special type of owner who LOVES SXS driving or really wants to be different. I can’t fathom a world where it makes sense to spend that.
50k !!!!!! HA !!!! yall got jokes..... id buy a fully loaded slightly used Rubicon thats more capable and street legal.......these "TOY"" prices have got ridiculous just like new truck prices.....
Where is the money spent? Most cost is with homologation, lights, crash, pass by noise, emissions etc. I know there is cost reduction with volume but this really shouldn't cost that much. There is going to be some serious margins going on
At this point, I don’t see the point of this pricy non street legal side by side. And from what I am seeing on other channels, these side by sides are not as mechanically tough as they are alleged to be. For example. Carrying a spare drive belt it a brand new expensive off road vehicle.
50-60k for a side by side is insane, just like 100k for a 1500 truck, I know there are the 1% that don't care how stupid these prices are, but these companies won't survive without average people being customers.
This makes a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon look like a bargain
my Jeep '23 MP was $38K fully optioned
That's why they came out with it.
It’s crazy to see how ATV’s have evolved. As a kid I had a 1996 Yamaha 350 Big Bear, I thought that was huge lol. My dad has now, still runs great.
I had a Yamaha 3 wheeler. Wish I still had it.
I'm fifty years old and ride a 1986 Yamaha Big Bear. As of now my mortgage, 401K and kids college fund take presidency. She burns a little old but runs great. Heated hand grips and a winch.

Why do you need a 60K vehicle to tow it? A 90's S10 or Ranger is more than capable of pulling one of these around, even modern SUV's can do it.

At this point, I don’t see the point of this pricy non street legal side by side. And from what I am seeing on other channels, these side by sides are not as mechanically tough as they are alleged to be. For example. Carrying a spare drive belt it a brand new expensive off road vehicle.
