The brand new Polaris RZR RS1 provides a thrill ride that would make a Rally Cross champion’s pulse race. “Personally, I think the RZR RS1 is about the gnarliest little wicked beast of a machine, that I have ever driven,” praised Tanner Foust, three-time World Rally Cross Champion. If the RZR RS1 is good enough for a three-time Red Bull Global Rallycross champion to drive then it’s more than a fantastic ride for weekend warriors to treasure.
This speedy sport utility Polaris can take you wherever you want to go whether it be in the mud, snow, woods, or desert. The all-new RZR RS1 features a solo-passenger cockpit that offers a heightened sense of control and you don’t have to worry about your passenger to yell at you to slow down. The RS1, which is the world’s first single-seat RZR, provides drivers with high-visibility sightlines, optimal center-of-mass driving position, and increased balance. The Polaris RZR RS1 boasts race-inspired driver ergonomics and provides enough room for active arm and leg movement. It has a new brake system that gives drivers the option of traditional single-foot action or rally-inspired two-foot performance.
“The thing that you notice, right away with the RZR RS1, is that it’s much more of a driver’s machine, and it really ties you more in the driving experience,” said Foust. “You have center-cockpit, you have the involvement in seeing the tires, and you have everything great about the fun of driving, taken up a notch.”
When it comes to performance the RS1 offers 18” of suspension travel, Walker Evans Needle Shocks, and dual fan rear radiators. This exciting off-road vehicle is powered by a ProStar 1000 H.O. 4-Stroke DOHC Twin Cylinder powerplant that pumps out 110 horsepower. The Polaris RZR RS1 will make its Red Bull Global Rallycross debut on May 19 in the 2018 season opener in Louisville. But, you don’t have to wait until May to check out this beauty, the Polaris RZR RS1 will be available in February and will retail for $13,999. That is a crazy great price for an actual race car.
