Polaris is bringing something big to the market in 2012. Next year, it will introduce the second trail-capable side-by-side in Ranger RZR family: the 2012 Polaris RZR 570.
In a release announcing the Polaris RZR 570, vice president and general manager of Polaris’ Off-Road Division, Matt Homan, said, “The launch of the RANGER RZR 800 introduced the industry to the first trail-capable Side-by-Side. With the success of the RANGER RZR 800, we saw the need for a single-cylinder model at a price point that will allow more customers to enter the trail-capable Side-by-Side segment.”
Price point indeed. The Polaris RZR 570 is slated to debut at $9,999 US MSRP (according to the official company site).
As for performance, the Polaris RZR 570 won’t disappoint. According to Polaris, the RZR 570 will showcase:
- An all-new ProStar 570 single cylinder, DOHC, electronic fuel injected engine
- A new, fully optimized transmission to add more power, less driveline noise, and less weight
- A helical cut final drive with high torque capacity to maximize efficiency
- Ultra smooth Independent Rear Suspension with 9.5 inches of travel in the rear
- Dual A-Arms with 9 inches of suspension travel
- 77-inch long wheelbase
