@@Jduc750 WTF who told you most people don't ride their UTV's more then 50 miles a day??? Have you been smoking your underwear??? Most people that go out on their UTV or ATV plan on going out for a couple hundred miles that is why they own one in the first place.
@@moarpwr4414 You are the few that only ride 10 to 20 miles in a day. Maybe try riding the trails and you will see why so many ride for a couple hundred miles in a day.
Range is a temporary challenge, for Farm and Agriculture use and for the average driver, it will work. There are many factors affecting range, but this is the future, EV is more of a political challenge for mass consumer adoption, than a mechanical challenge.
You have the Ultimate, your entire video is with the Ultimate, not the base model. The Ultimate package has the 29.8kwh battery, and it’s Polaris’s bigger battery. The smaller battery is the 14.9kwh premium model.
Any money you save over 5 years in maintenance and fuel etc will be lost when you have to replace the mega expensive battery in that thing. How about you guys tell us exactly how much it costs for a dealer to replace the battery
Battery will probably last 20 years or so. Most likely will never need to replace it. And if the battery is anything like EV’s, they will be required to warranty for 100k miles by law. 100k miles on a side by side is more than most people will ever use the thing.
@ 2:41, Why does everybody think electricity is free ?? There's a thing called "your electric bill", To fully charge one of these, just like an electric car or truck, @ 240 volts, is just like having your oven on for 4 -8 hours. Do the math and see what the real difference is on that $3500 savings!
So at current electric rates in my area, it would be about $3-$6 to “fill” it up depending on which battery you have. They also just mention $3,500 is on maintenance, not fuel savings. This also does not account for if you have solar to charge it. It is certainly not going to break the bank to charge.
Who the F would want one??? The more you use it the less power it has and if you are in a tuff spot you will kill what life is left in the battery. Any power tool or transportation like ATV UTV Car Truck that runs only on batteries is worthless. When you are 60 miles out and have to drive back 50 miles you will be walking about 60 miles and had to leave the UTV deep in the woods. Now how are you going to charge it? Tow it back with a friend that was smart and bought a gas powered UTV?
Where are going that you are 60 miles out? Battery of like EV’s will maintain full power until around 3-5% of charge remaining and then will limit power. I would use this in a heartbeat on my farm. Granted, I don’t own King Ranch that covers several counties and 10’s of thousands of acres.
@@moarpwr4414 I take it you know very little about ATVing and UTVing. There are trails for all people to ride on that go for thousands of miles. Most States in the United States have ATV parks UTV parks that you can ride for days and not hit the same trail. There are places you can ride that have more then a million acers . The harder the trail is the more battery you will use up meaning less time charged. Most people that go out on their ATV or UTV bring more gas just incase they need it you can't bring extra batteries for the Just incase. On a full tank of gas you can ride for a few hundred miles and always have full power.
@ this machine is designed for work, not necessarily for the trail. Not saying it can’t be used on the trail, but that is not its purpose. I have a Kubota side by side for the farm and that is what it would be used for. There are more purpose built side by sides for the trail which would fit the bill for what you are looking for. Don’t use mine for the trail, and don’t have trails for UTV or ATV’s anywhere near me. This machine would be the equivalent of taking a dually off road in my opinion. Could you do it, sure, do you want to, probably not. It’s the use intent. It may not work for every job, just like a screw gun does not make a great hammer.
@@moarpwr4414 Most people that buy a ATV or UTV they bought it for the pleasure as well as to use for work. Yes I have also seen Kubota's out on the trails. To be honest I was out on a trail ride and this kid was broke down in a Kubota side by side. I stopped and asked if he needed help and the kid said yes please. As I was ready to help he said my grandfather is going to kill me. I knew at that moment he screwed up. I said why is that he said well he don't know I have it and he will be PO. I towed him back but he had to think of why it was broke down.
40-80 miles of range😂 not gonna cut it for 99.9% of the people
You literally made that up. Most people in utility sxs are not traveling greater than 50 miles.
How far are you driving a side by side in a day? I use mine daily on the farm and do no more than 10-20 miles per day at most.

Will we be able find one in the 5 state area?
I mean, It will work for a specific niche of people. I like it, but I would never pay that much. I kind of want to retire one day Ha!

Plenty enough range!
A GREAT IDEA KILLED BY PRICE…..AND OTHER ISSUES.
Hell no!!! Not nearly enough range.
Gasoline Forever guys!
40 miles and 80 miles totally sucks a$$!!!!
Useless for actual hunting in the real world. I’ll stick with my 2013 500efi mid-size. 🤷♂️
Hard pass for me
