Polaris Commercial added the all-electric Pro XD Full-Size Kinetic utility vehicle (UTV) to its lineup, rounding out the Pro XD family that also includes gas and diesel, full-size and mid-size, standard and crew models.
“Going all-electric with the professional-grade Pro XD UTV empowers customers to meet sustainability obligations without sacrificing capabilities,” said Aaron Stegemann, vice president, Polaris Commercial. “In everything we do, Polaris Commercial is committed to providing the greatest value for our customers. That means genuinely listening to their pain points, understanding the use-cases and applications for our work UTVs and solving unmet demands where we can. With the introduction of the Pro XD Kinetic, we’re keeping the features our customers love and rely on from the Pro XD family while addressing the ever-growing environmental, operational and government requirements for EVs.
Features include:
- An all-electric powertrain through Polaris’ exclusive 10-year partnership with Zero Motorcycles
- 1,250 pounds cargo and 2,500 pounds towing capacity
- An all-electric powertrain that delivers instantaneous torque and precise handling and requires less maintenance, which means more vehicle uptime
- Orange seatbelts, vehicle decals, and optional lighting accessories improve visibility of the vehicle and surrounding workers, while a standard horn and backup alarm provide audible alerts for the operator and surrounding crew
- The top speed of the Pro XD Kinetic can be calibrated between 5-40 mph, with many customers selecting a top speed of 25 mph for jobsite compliance
- The electric drivetrain also provides reduced sound levels that improve the operator’s situational awareness, allow easier communications between crew members and enables quiet-zone usage.
- Heavy-duty boots, bearings and bushings, Kevlar-backed seats, thick eight-ply tires and a rust- and dent-free poly bed ensure the electric model is built to last from the headlights to the tailgate.
- A rugged, long-lasting 14.9-kWh lithium-Ion (li-ion) battery and a powerful electric motor
- 140 foot-pounds of instant torque provide the power operators need to effortlessly tow up to 2,500 pounds and haul up to 1,250 pounds
- Additionally, a range of up to 45-miles** ensures crews can go the distance, all day, every day while providing an estimated five-year savings of $2,800 in fuel savings alone compared to the MY24 gas Pro XD
- The Pro XD Kinetic from Polaris Commercial is equipped with convenient charging options designed to fit any electrification infrastructure, or lack thereof.
- The vehicle’s battery can be charged by a standard wall outlet or even a similarly powered generator for remote jobsites or until power is established. This ability to charge using 110V power means no new infrastructure is required, however, the Pro XD Kinetic is also compatible with 220V to enable fast charging options.
