Beefy 800 EFI Power
The proven, big-bore 800 twin-cylinder engine gets the job done with 50 HP, and features EFI for fast, reliable starting in any temperature, plus automatic adjustments for altitude.

ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL WHEEL DRIVE
True AWD keeps you moving, automatically engaging all four wheels when you need more forward traction and reverting back to 2WD when you don’t. Other ATVs use a limited-slip differential, engaging only three wheels.

RAISED RADIATOR PLACEMENT
Radiator is mounted 3" higher in the chassis an angled rearward to keep it out of mud and you on the trail longer.

NEW! INTEGRATED FRONT STORAGE
The most integrated storage of any ATV. The 6.5 gallon capacity lets you stow-away loads of gear and still have access to it, even with items tied to the deck.

GREAT HANDLING
Engine placement more rearward for lighter steering effort and improved handling, letting you tackle the trail or chore of your choice.
