www.PowersportsBusiness.com ATV/UTV Powersports Business • January 26, 2015 • 21 The RZR 4 900 EPS' chassis is engineered for Polaris accessories. With integrated mounting points situated along the vehicle frame and pass-through areas for routing wires, accessories can be attached with minimal installation time. The RZR 4 900 EPS will be offered in Havasu Red Pearl and Voodoo Blue and will be in dealer- ships starting in February. SPECIAL FOX EDITION AND NEW RZRS IN LIMITED EDITION COLORS As part of RZR's continuing inno- vation and commitment to its enthusiasts, Polaris is announc- ing several new models featuring new paint schemes and graphics, and a new RZR XP 1000 EPS model with the first-ever Internal Bypass Shocks available on a side-by-side. The new RZR XP 1000 EPS FOX Edition features highly-tuned FOX Podium Internal Bypass Shocks, retuned coil-over springs, new front stabilizer bar and softer rear bar. The new FOX Podium Internal Bypass Shocks found on the RZR XP 1000 EPS FOX Edition generate highly-progressive damp- ing that gives the vehicle a plush ride with all the bottom-out resistance expected from an ultra-performance off-road vehicle. The shocks have large diameter bodies (3 in/7.6 cm rear, 2.5 in/6.4 cm front), reservoirs and increased fluid capacity for dramatic improvements in heat dissipation, fade resistance and durability. The internal bypass technology offers more zones than a conventional shock for better ten- ability and performance for the smoothest ride available on a side-by-side and better handling over a wider range of terrain at any speed. To complement the new shock package, Polaris outfitted the RZR XP 1000 EPS FOX Edition with redesigned coil-over springs. The progressive rate upper spring is a lighter-weight spring that absorbs small impacts, while the stiffer, main spring maintains ground clearance and absorbs bigger impacts in rough terrain. The RZR XP 1000 EPS FOX Edition also is the first RZR XP to feature a front sway bar and also has a redesigned rear sway bar with 25 percent less stiffness. Combined with the FOX Podium Internal Bypass Shocks, the sway bars dramatically decrease body roll and improve vehicle handling and comfort. Along with the new suspension package, the RZR XP 1000 EPS FOX Edition features Matte Turbo Silver paint, cut and sew seats, new graphics package, innovative 6-Point har- nesses and the Polaris Interactive Digital Dis- play which is an LCD display and gauge with full-featured GPS, mapping capability and compass. The display also features integrated Bluetooth functionality and shows the speed- ometer, tachometer, dual trip meters, odometer and maintenance warnings along with a digital clock and operating conditions, including fuel level and diagnostics. The RZR XP 1000 EPS FOX Edition will be available in dealerships starting in February.
