Today, RZR is introducing this same breakthrough level of extreme performance for four, to share the off-road with friends and family.The new RZR XP 4 Turbo EPS is the ultimate combination of extreme performance in a side-by-side, with all of the features of the RZR XP Turbo EPS.

The Polaris ProStar® Turbo engine provides an industry-leading 144 horsepower-, 30 percent more horsepower and 45 percent more torque than the RZR XP 4 1000 EPS.

The new engine was developed for extreme performance and features all new, high performance parts including forged pistons, an upgraded 270-degree firing order forged crankshaft, high strength connecting rods, a closed deck cylinder, sodium filled exhaust valves and a new oil lubrication system. For consistent performance at all temperatures, the vehicle also includes a new liquid charged air cooler with front-mounted, dual radiators with high-capacity fan and high-flow electric pump. To control the massive power delivered by the ProStar Turbo, the engine management system has also been updated to include knock detection, boost control and a high-flow return style fuel system ensuring that the engine delivers maximum power under all conditions, altitudes and temperatures.

 

To deliver maximum durability and performance, Polaris performed substantial testing on the engine with enough test miles to travel around the world more than nine times. The engine also is paired with an all-new stronger driveline to ensure all the power gets to the ground reliably. The fully-automatic PVT variable transmission ensures optimal power delivery in all conditions, with the ease of operation that suits riders of all types.

Similar to the RZR XP Turbo EPS, the RZR XP 4 Turbo EPS boasts the most precisely-tuned suspension due to the vehicle’s exclusive FOX Podium® Internal Bypass Shocks. The shocks offer the plushest ride and best handling on a side-by-side to conquer the harshest trails and terrain. Paired with a long wheel base, dual A-arm front suspension with 16 in/40.6 cm of front travel and race-inspired, 3-Link trailing arm rear suspension with an incredible 18 in/45.7 cm of rear travel, RZR XP 4 Turbo EPS occupants will experience one of the smoothest rides in a side-by-side whether riding alone or with up to three passengers.

The RZR XP 4 Turbo EPS also provides unmatched agility in every condition.
