SIDE-BY-SIDES The 2008 Polaris Ranger RZR retains its charm for KBB.com visitors. Once again, it took the No. 1 spot on the top 10 most researched utility vehi- cles list by a large margin. The 2008 Polaris Ranger RZR received 49 per- cent more KBB.com hits than the No. 2 vehicle on the list. Whereas utility vehicles in the top 10 list saw an average gain of only 9 percent in KBB.com hits, utility vehicles in general saw a gain of 51 percent for Q2 over Q1 2015. SPORT ATV OVER 400CC The No. 1 ATV on the list, the 2005 Honda TRX450R, received 44 percent more KBB.com hits than the No. 2 ATV on the list. Yamaha dominated the top 10 sport ATVs over 400cc list, holding seven spots. The remaining three spots were taken by two Hondas and one Kawasaki. Whereas the models on top 10 sport ATV over 400cc list saw an average gain of only 6 percent in KBB.com hits, the ATV segment as a whole increased by 75 percent for Q2 2015 over Q1. UTILITY ATV OVER 400CC Polaris holds seven of the 10 spots on the most researched utility vehicles list with its Sportsman series. The models on the top 10 utility ATVs over 400cc list saw average gain of 7 percent in KBB. com hits. ATV 400CC & UNDER Honda edged out the other manufacturers to take not only the No. 1 spot on the list, but also the majority of the other positions, with six ATVs on the list. Three Suzukis and one Polaris took the remaining spots. Nine of the 10 most researched ATVs under 400cc are sport ATVs. Only one ATV is a utility model: the 2004 Polaris Sportsman 400 4x4.
