Forty Polaris dealers gathered over two days in May for dealer training, product focus and the opportunity to get familiar with new Polaris Rangers and Sportsman ATVs. Unusually, Polaris had also arranged for competitive machines to be available for comparison testing.
The trekking centre offered the ideal venue for putting all the machines through their paces, with over two hundred acres of land to play with, including mature woodlands, swamps, brooks, open fields and challenging terrain. This was perfect terrain for testing all units and the Polaris line-up comprised the new Ranger Diesel 1000 HD, Ranger XP900 and Ranger 570, with the Sportsman range represented with a Sportsman 570 and 570 EPS.
There was strong focus on the new Ranger Diesel 1000 HD 2017 model with the facility to try the Active Descent Control for controlled hill descents.
The Ride and Drive Days also provided good opportunity for the dealers to familiarise themselves with the latest Lock & Ride Pro-fit cab options and the many accessories available for both the Rangers and Sportsman models.
