For those asking, I did get to drive it and that video is coming to a TFL channel near you! There’s a specific embargo that lifts early next week. -Max
It has a bigger battery than my 2017 Ioniq EV. Crazy changes in battery tech in just 5 years.
Thank you for being so thorough Max
I’m hoping Polaris can come out with a crew version of this.
So far loving my 2022 Kawasaki Mule Pro-Mx LE with EPS.. I had 3 2016 Polaris RZR XP1000 and One Slingshot after 11 months of owning all 4. Polaris bought all 4 machines back due to tons of recalls
Looks great but I can buy an older TJ for a lot less than that. I'm into ev's but that cost is just nuts.
Go buy an older TJ then
When they said the price, I could only think how you could get a Ford Lightning for $5k more instead
I'm looking more for the utility, but that price... 😳
Older? The new wrangler starts at $29,725!
@@Bryan154 Unfortunately it's a Ford though.
The price is insane, $32K. Obviously I want one.
$35K for this one! That might not even be OTD even!!! lmao
You'd really have to be a sucker and on the spectrum to fall for that price...
The north star premium with heat and ac. Is 26k. It's not a huge price difference. This is essentially a smart car/mini truck.
35k? bro....
Vehicles at or below this price
Jeep Wrangler
Elantra N
WRX
Jeep Gladiator is just above at 37k
Civic si
Civic type r is just above
Even the bronco starts below if you can get it at MSRP
This price is ridiculous and dont even say its because its an EV. Chevrolet just lowered their price of the Bolt, which has a larger pack, to 25k. That's 10k less than this
To be fair even the none EVs are expensive. I own a Northstar Ultimate and paid around 27k. I think the MSRP for a new Northstar Ultimate is 30K.
Can you please make a video of the American Landmaster EV?
Shit I thought Chris was Nathan
35k ?? Good luck
oh god. the price of this stuff is just insanity. i'll walk.
35,000 dollars lmfao
That charger looks exactly the same as the Ford unit with just a different color sticker plate on the front of it?
The word "experience" must be trendy while I am not. An "order session" is a new one also, but when that becomes trendy, someone will explain it to me. Otherwise, I've driven an older electric ranger and really enjoyed it, and we modified one a few years older than that by replacing the OEM battery with a bunch of truck batteries at a cheaper cost and it seemed to be fine. It is strange hearing all the sounds that are normally covered up by the gas engine sounds.
Wish these could be taken on the road. My buddy doesn't want the investment of an efficient car or the expense of an idler car which drinks gas and needs maintenance. But if he could drive this to my place we could go out to trailheads/deactivated FSRs that big vehicles can't do
I really would like a electric side by side for buzzing around the ranch and to work in town but no way am I paying 25-30 grand for a side by side that gets 35 mile range.
There at least used to be a much more affordable one with much less power and bling. Probably just lead acid batteries but I can’t recall.
Yes the Ranger EV uses much more basic lead-acid batteries - not as fast or exciting but cheaper at $14,999. Still on their site.
Is this for everybody? No. Is it expensive? Yes. Like all new technologies, the cost is high. Just think about the costs for PCs in 80s and 90s. Expensive and slow. But for some this is great. The lack of noise is important. If you are outdoor, doing hunting, or just do not want to create more noise than necessary, this is great. I live in Norway where we have a lot of EVs. When I go abroad the first thing I notice is how loud traffic is outside of Norway. Noise can be cool, but it is also pollution. Great to see Polaris making this offering.
There are much cheaper options that have been around for a long time.
Is there Factory fitted road lights? ie, indicators, brake lights, marker lights etc.
that guy nailed it.
Would be great if Polaris would make an EV truck variant similar to the Intimidator UTV truck. Would be ideal for homesteaders and hunters.
Thanks for covering this very interesting vehicle. I have been waiting ever since Polaris and Zero announced they were working together. I am surprised it uses Zero’s largest motor, 110 hp seems a bit much for a limited speed vehicle like this. I expected that they would use Zero’s 70 hp motor.
I have been wanting to see how this performs. 🤞 they give yall one to test and compare at the ranch
How much for export ? Is this Ranger for road ?
Looks amazing I hope in Canada we get it
Not many folks will be trail riding with the ranger with 80 miles in perfect conditions and every little thing draining the battery.
Will they be making a two row?
Chris IS Nathan
Are y'all going to drive it or what?
A $30,000 Plus side by side. Who notices an additional grand here and another 4 grand there. Everyone has a kitchen drawer with bundles of $1,000 bills and bank accounts with $100,000 cash balances they casually snap up to run out to buy a pair of $30k side by sides, a $25k toy hauler to put them in and an $70,000 pickup to tow them around with. Living the dream.
What is an order session?
How deep can it go through water?
Unrelated, but what is the rep's accent?
Yeah we go mudding in these things I am not getting an electric!! ICE all the way!! Hell no!!
ICE will be dead in 10 years!
@@gmv0553 You have no idea what the future holds
These vehicles have more than double the torque of an ICE vehicle with a similar trim. It would get you out of more situations while mudding than an ICE would. It matches the tow rating and has a higher payload than comparable vehicles. What issue would you have with it compared to an ICE? Battery life/Range? Charge time?
Wow that price? I can’t see where are those money put on? Not really sure
IT needs a bigger battery at least 50 kWh battery and a fast charge option
Used i3 or this…hmmm
$35,000! Yeah, right.
Perfect for a 200k acreage ranch or farm.
This video was two programs interacting. We're just reading the logs.
Depressing that Polaris is keeping their drivetrain the same on this unit. I thought they would adapt something like the bad boy buggies front axle which looks like it already uses Polaris struts and a arms.
You will have to wait one full year if your lucky enough and if they have one.
35k……😳😳😳😳😳👈🏽
What is the range?
Average of 80 miles
Nice
35k for a plug in go kart.. ho Lee chit
Run the machine in 30 degree or below weather.
Run the machine in -15 degree ferenheight
Lotta talking… not much driving
As mentioned in comments above by TLFEV, there will be a driving video coming next week once embargo lifts on another channel (My guess would be TFL Offroad)
Man, these still haven't even released yet here in February 2023 - way let down.
Too bad all sold out. No suprise...
If you account for the tax credit, an F-150 lightning is cheaper than this. Insane.
Precisely for A Wealthy Green Fuddy Duddy Subdivision Living Person where having 4 acres is no longer like having 40 acres. People nowadays are extremely impulsive about things they don't like and noise is a big one. The issue is obvious, too much💰💰💩🤥
Never go air cooled battery... For a vehicle this expensive, what a mistake.
Far too expensive, noting more than a glorified golf cart. Not practical for real world use. Thanks for the video.
