On November 9, Polaris announced its most potent side-by-side OHV yet. The RZR Pro R packs 225 horsepower of giddyup.
Polaris’s new side-by-sides lead with straight-line power. How much? According to the brand, the RZR Pro R’s 2.0L four-cylinder engine is the most powerful engine ever put into a stock side-by-side.
The Pro R should go puckeringly fast, so Polaris also gives it plenty of hardware for strength and control. A one-piece chassis couples with a fully welded roll cage, and strengthened unitized hubs and burly boxed steel A-arms help keep it together.
A MaxLink suspension delivers a whopping 29 inches of usable travel. And proprietary “intuitive” suspension technology senses terrain and vehicle input to optimize rebound and compression. The platform’s 74-inch stance is the industry’s widest.
Steve Menneto, President of Polaris Off-Road, says the RZR Pro R and its variant, the 181-horsepower Turbo R, address a common need among off-roaders.
“The reality is, passionate off-roaders are reinforcing their stock chassis and suspension, often spending thousands of dollars to make their machines stronger,” Menneto observed. “RZR Pro R and Turbo R bring that next-level strength straight off the showroom floor.”
