POLARIS INTRODUCE NEW RANGER
Launch of new Diesel UTV
Polaris has announced the introduction of the latest Ranger Diesel UTV with new features.
The 2017 Ranger Diesel HD benefits from Active Descent Control for controlled hill descents, automatic four-wheel braking on steep inclines and Electronic Power Steering. A new 7-pin trailer socket now comes fitted as standard and comfort is ensured with the Lock & Ride Pro-Fit cab system and a range of accessories.
The new vehicle incorporates a 1028cc Kohler 3-cylinder overhead cam liquid cooled engine. The company says this diesel engine utilizes indirect injection and delivers smooth power with reduced combustion noise.
The compact, heavy-duty design has a cast iron crankcase for durability and an aluminium cylinder head for weight reduction. It is also EPA/CARB Tier 4 compliant.
Polaris say the Lock & Ride Pro-Fit cab system provides a new standard in accessory integration. The highly modular design offers options from robust canvas doors and a poly windscreen, to premium automotive glass tip-out windscreens and electric windows. The roof and rear panel on the 2017 Ranger Diesel come as standard.
The payload capacity is 680.4 kg, with a gas-assisted rear dump box that can handle 454 kg of materials and a full-sized pallet.
There is 907kg of towing capacity available and when the going gets rough the on-demand all-wheel drive kicks in for more forward traction when its needed, reverting back to 2WD when the terrain smoothes out.
