“We constantly use our customers’ feedback to drive improvements that truly matter to them and make the best-selling side-by-side even better. The results of that are on display with the full-size RANGER offering for 2025,” said Reid Wilson, Polaris Vice President and General Manager of Off Road. “Whether it’s tackling a tough task or enjoying a trail, the new 2025 full-size RANGER lineup is stacked with quality enhancements and upgraded features to deliver more capability, durability, and comfort as the number one selling off-road brand.”

- Tractor-homologated RANGER XP 1000 models see an increase to power as well as the introduction of drive modes – riders can choose between work, standard and performance mode to control the throttle based on the task at hand.

In addition to the new upgrades, the 2025 full-size RANGER lineup continues to provide the features riders have come to expect from Polaris, including class-leading 454kg box capacity and 1,136kg towing to carry large loads in fewer trips, maximising overall productivity, as well as on-demand All-Wheel Drive (AWD) that automatically engages four-wheel drive when traction loss is detected for confidence in rough terrain, and reverts back to two-wheel drive when traction is regained.
The latest RANGER lineup is Polaris’ most comfortable UTVs to date with the option of adding a full cab, complete with roof, tip-out windshield and wiper, rear panel, crank doors and in-cab heater. Full cab accessories for RANGER allow riders to seal out the elements and extend their work day. Whether it’s a shady respite from the summer sun, or protection from the harsh weather of winter, riders can work year-round in complete comfort.
