The NEW Polaris RZR XP 900



RANGER RZR Introduces a Whole New Class of Side x Side
RANGER RZR XP 900 Offers Razor Sharp Xtreme Performance​


To ring in the New Year, the RANGER RZR family welcomes a whole new class of Side x Side, introducing the RANGER RZR XP 900!

The RANGER RZR has the only family of Sport Side x Sides with Razor Sharp Performance for all types of recreation. It all started in 2008 when Polaris introduced the only trail-capable Side x Side, the RANGER RZR 800. In 2009, came the only true-sport Side x Side, the RANGER RZR S 800. With the introduction of the RANGER RZR 4 800 in 2010, Polaris introduced the world’s only four-seat sport Side-by-Side. For 2011, the family adds the RANGER RZR XP 900, a whole new class of Side x Side that continues to offer the ultimate combination of power, suspension and agility and takes it to the extreme.

Built for razor-sharp, Xtreme performance, the RANGER RZR XP 900 has a new 88 horsepower, 900 Twin, Electronic Fuel Injected (EFI) engine, a new 3-Link Trailing Arm Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) with 13-inches of ground clearance and 14-inches of travel, and is light weight with a low center of gravity for unmatched cornering. These features make the RANGER RZR XP 900 the only extreme performance Side x Side on the market.

“The RANGER RZR family delivers the ultimate combination of power, suspension and agility,” said Matt Homan , vice president and general manager of Polaris’ Off-Road Vehicles Division. “When we set out to design the RANGER RZR XP 900, we wanted to create a ground-breaking, high performance vehicle to complement our current, best-selling RANGER RZR line. The result is simply incredible.”

The ultimate combination of power, suspension and agility starts with power. At the heart of the RANGER RZR XP 900 is the all-new, 88 horsepower ProStar™ 900 Twin EFI engine that was built specifically for an extreme-performance Side x Side. The engine features Dual OverHead Cams (DOHC), four big valves per cylinder and a 180-degree crankshaft for balanced performance and fast throttle response for groundbreaking acceleration. The combination of 88 horsepower with the vehicle’s light weight provides acceleration that is 29-percent quicker than the next quickest Side x Side on the market.

To complement the potent power plant, the RANGER RZR XP 900 features an all-new, lightweight, compact and durable transmission, also designed specifically for extreme Side x Side performance. Efficiency has been maximized by eliminating all right angle drives to the rear axle resulting in less friction and more power delivered directly to the rear wheels. And, the simple and efficient design also provides a very quiet transmission.

In order to handle the massive power of the new engine and keep the ride smooth, Polaris designed the all-new, 3-Link Trailing Arm IRS. The 3-link design consists of two extra-long radius rods and a far forward-connecting trailing arm resulting in a strong, yet lightweight system. The RANGER RZR XP 900 also is outfitted with adjustable, premium 2-inch body Fox Podium X 2.0 shocks. Its monstrous 14-inches of terrain-absorbing rear travel and 13.5-inches of front travel soak up the rough stuff and deliver a smooth, precise ride, while its astounding 13-inches of ground clearance gives the machine the ability to tackle any obstacle in its way.

For razor-sharp agility, RANGER RZR XP 900 has no equal. Even with its incredible ground clearance, the unit still features a low center of gravity for the ultimate ride over rough terrain. The patented, engine-behind-the-seat design and rear weight bias deliver extreme, razor-sharp agility and performance, while the race-inspired rear suspension maximizes traction and power in the corners. To provide precise cornering, the suspension’s radius rods extend deep into the wheel hubs and feature an uneven link geometry that optimizes camber. Tires lean into the corner through the suspension travel, and plant more tire surface on the ground for maximum control. The trailing arms also minimize wheel scrub for superior straight-away power to help the driver stay true to line.

A premium vehicle needs premium features, and the RANGER RZR XP 900 has many. The machine features the industry’s first factory LED headlights that shine a high-intensity beam to turn night into day and throw light forward beyond conventional halogens. For ultimate stopping power, the RANGER RZR XP 900 has performance brake calipers and large diameter, ventilated rotors on all four wheels. To complement the new suspension, the RANGER RZR XP 900 is outfitted with completely adjustable Fox Podium X 2.0 shocks on all four wheels. The Fox Podium X 2.0 shocks have a 2-inch body with piggyback reservoirs that provide adjustable pre-load and compression dampening. For high performance riding, ITP 900 XCT tires provide a unique, directional lug pattern for exceptional cornering and straight-line traction capabilities. To maximize cooling capacity, the unit features a massive grill opening and a front air dam for improved air flow. For safety, the RANGER RZR XP 900 has a certified roll-over protective structure (ROPS).

The RANGER RZR XP 900 is offered in Indy Red and a White Lightening limited edition model, and will be available at Polaris dealerships in January. More than 70 PURE Polaris accessories, including cargo boxes, winches and protection also will be available at launch.

NEW! 88 HP 900 TWIN EFI ENGINE
Specifically built for an extreme performance Side x Side. The Polaris ProStar™ 900 features industry-leading 88 HP, Dual OverHead Cams (DOHC), large valves for high RPM power and 180 degree crank shaft for balanced performance. This delivers fast throttle response, groundbreaking power and revolutionary acceleration.

XTREME PERFORMANCE POWER to WEIGHT
It's 29% quicker than the next closest competitor. This revolutionary acceleration is made possible by the 88 HP lightweight engine and total vehicle weight combined with big-time power to the ground. The result is loads of torque to all four wheels and unsurpassed off-road acceleration.

NEW! LIGHTWEIGHT, COMPACT TRANSMISSION
Specifically built to optimize power of the new Polaris ProStar™ 900 engine, its high-torque capacity delivers superior performance and handling. This means more power to the ground, less driveline noise and lighter weight. The innovative lightweight design features a helical cut final drive with optimized gear geometry to maximize efficience

NEW! 3-LINK TRAILING ARM LONG TRAVEL IRS
We designed the all-new 3-Link Trailing Arm IRS to handle all that massive power and keep the ride smooth. The 3-Link design consists of two extra-long radius rods and a far forward-connecting trailing arm resulting in a strong yet lightweight system

NEW! NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN TRAVEL & GROUND CLEARANCE
The new 3-Link Trailing Arm IRS, paired with premium Fox Shocks, creates a monstrous 14" of terrain-absorbing rear travel. Match that with an astounding 13.5" of front travel and 13" of ground clearance and no comparison is required. Hands down, RANGER RZR XP™ owns the desert, the dunes and any wide open space

PREMIUM SHOCKS WITH FRONT DUAL A-ARM SUSPENSION
Standard on all 4 corners are premium Fox Podium X 2.0 Shocks with piggy-back reservoirs - compression and preload adjustable. Pair that with Dual-A-Arm front suspension with 13.5" of travel and it soaks up the rough stuff and delivers a smooth, precise ride every time

LOW CENTER OF GRAVITY
Even with 13" of ground clearance, RANGER RZR XP™ still has a class-leading low center of gravity for the ultimate ride through rough terrain. Its patented engine-behind-the-seat design and rear weight bias deliver extreme, razor-sharp agility and performance.

NEW! UNMATCHED CORNERING AND STRAIGHT-AWAY AGILITY
The new 3-Link race inspired rear suspension maximizes traction and power in corners and straightaways. Tires lean into the corner through the suspension travel, planting more tire surface on the ground to create positive tire camber for more control. The trailing arms also minimize wheel scrub for superior straightaway power, helping you stay true to your line

ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
True AWD gives you the ultimate grip to put that 88 HP to work in the corners, whoops and loose terrain. It’s the easiest to use and fastest responding on-demand system, automatically engaging all four wheels when you need more forward traction and reverting back to 2WD when you don’t. This means less wear and tear, easier steering, and maximizes power when you need it most
