If you agree that riding with a passenger is more fun than exploring the wilderness by your own, then you're the kind of rider Polaris had in mind when they created the 2013 Sportsman Touring 850 HO EPS LE.
Since we're talking all acronyms, it's pretty obvious that we're dealing with something more than the base model. This unit brings a nifty trim level to the off-road game: the Electronic Power Steering, the High-Output big-bore engine and exclusive graphics to make this ATV stand from the crowd.

Operation is easy thanks to an automatic transmission with a host of great options which require no user intervention: the acclaimed on-demand AWD, engine braking and active descent control, all accounting for safer, smoother tackling of difficult terrain.

With less fatigue even after long hours spent aboard this vehicle, both rider and passenger can take more joy form their ride, especially with the patented Comfort Ride Seat Suspension: the pillion seat is also loaded on a spring which adds one extra inch of travel, for an even smoother ride.

Cast and machined aluminium wheels, color-matched body parts and suspension elements are standard for the LE version, and so are the hand and thumb warmers, handguards, mirrors and the storage box. If special colors are not on your to-die-for list, a base model of the machine is of course, available.

The 2013 Polaris Sportsman Touring 850 HO EPS starts at $10,999 (€8,400), while the Limited Edition kicks off at $11,999 (€9,170), with numerous accessories available for some extra cash.
