He 2009 Polaris Sportsman 550 X2 spells the ultimate versatility for an ATV. While engineered as a two-up machine, this quad only needs 10 seconds to transform into a work-ready solo ATV with a generous rear cargo box. The creative rear seat system is easily hidden underneath the loading bed and can be put back to work in just 3 easy steps.

The brawny half-liter class engine which powers the 2009 Sportsman 550 X2 is coupled to an automatic transmission with on-demand AWD, active descent control and engine braking, for passing over obstacles more easily, no matter whether we're thinking about ditches or slippery, loose surfaces. And when in 2WD, the VersaTracTurf mode unlocks the rear differential to minimize damage to sensitive grass patches and similar areas, making the X2 also suitable for more delicate jobs.
