Instead of a traditional internal combustion engine, the 2011 Polaris Ranger EV sports a 48V AC-induction motor capable of producing 30HP. With an 11.7kWh battery, Polaris claims the Ranger EV delivers the longest range in it's class, but this is up to driving conditions and style.. anyway when it comes to batteries, the bigger (the capacity) the better. So if you're pondering on getting an EV beast for zero local emissions and clean working power, the Ranger EV might be the one.
On the tech side, the 2011 Polaris Ranger EV comes with a low noise gear direct drive transmission: no shifting, no fuss, and all the power on tap. The UTV retains the top-class on-demand AWD which engages traction to all wheels when needed, and comes with the same powerful hydraulic brakes of its siblings. The Lock & Ride cargo system ensures quick load-in and tear-down for various accessories, and thanks to the VersaTrac TurfMode, the sensitive surfaces will not be damaged.
