Here’s The All-New, Electric, Polaris Pro XD Full-Size Kinetic UTV

Share this:

The all-new, all-electric, Polaris Commercial Pro XD Full-Size Kinetic utility vehicle is here. It’s engineered to enable all-day operation on the jobsite as well as withstand worksite duty cycles. Its features include a motor capable of 140 lb-ft of torque, an independent front and rear suspension with 10 inches of wheel travel, 14-inch wheels, 12 inches of ground clearance, and up to 45 miles of range on a full charge.

Polaris Pro XD Full-Size Kinetic Can Haul Over a Ton of Weight

Polaris is no stranger to electric UTVs. In fact, it has been shipping the class-leading and award-winning Ranger XP Kinetic since April of 2023. Fun fact: The company sold out of Ranger XP Kinetics in only two hours after opening its initial order window for the unit. Polaris Commercial has incorporated that innovation into its offerings for commercial customers by introducing the Pro XD Kinetic. This addition complements the Pro XD family, which includes gas and diesel, full-size and mid-size, standard and crew models. Through Polaris’ exclusive 10-year partnership with Zero Motorcycles, the Pro XD Kinetic boasts an all-electric powertrain. This powerful UTV maintains the same 1,250-pound cargo and 2,500-pound towing capacity as a full-size gas or diesel Pro XD. The Pro XD offers On-Demand 4×4 or High Performance On-Demand True AWD/2WD/VersaTrac Turf Mode.

No Charging Infrastructure Needed

When it comes to charging, the Pro XD Kinetic is flexible. In fact, it comes with versatile charging options tailored to various electrification setups or the absence of such infrastructure. Users have the flexibility to charge the vehicle’s battery using a standard wall outlet or a generator with a comparable power output. This is beneficial for remote jobsites or during periods without established power sources. The convenience of charging with 110V power eliminates the need for new infrastructure. Moreover, the Pro XD Kinetic is adaptable to 220V, providing the option for fast charging up to 3 kW. A standard information center in the dash of the Pro XD Kinetic offers the driver a wealth of information. This includes power use, battery state of charge, battery temperature, and motor temperature.

Essential Jobsite Features

The Pro XD Kinetic offers essential jobsite features. It’s constructed with heavy-duty boots, bearings, and bushings. Also, Kevlar-backed seats, robust eight-ply non-directional tires, and a rust- and dent-resistant poly bed. These features mirror the resilience of its gas and diesel counterparts. Under the hood, the Pro XD Kinetic houses a rugged 14.9 kWh lithium-ion battery. It’s paired with a potent electric motor. How potent? Well, it produces 110 hp and 140 lb-ft of instant torque. It’s worth noting that machine’s quieter operation allows access to restricted areas where heavy-duty gas and diesel UTVs were previously excluded. Furthermore, the Pro XD Kinetic boasts an impressive range of up to 45 miles, allowing crews to cover significant distances throughout the day.

Minimal Maintenance Requirements

The all-electric Pro XD Kinetic minimizes maintenance requirements. In fact, Polaris Commercial says that scheduled maintenance costs for the Pro XD Kinetic are approximately 60 percent lower than the average maintenance expenses associated with comparable gas-powered vehicles. The electric powertrain of the Pro XD Kinetic eliminates the need for oil changes, filter replacements, spark plugs, and clutch maintenance, making these traditional upkeep tasks obsolete. The vehicle’s lithium-Ion battery is designed to last the vehicle’s lifetime, further supported by a five-year warranty from Polaris Commercial. This comprehensive warranty coverage allows users to concentrate more on getting work done, with less concern about potential disruptions. Finally, Polaris Commercial says that the Pro XD Kinetic is estimated to provide a five-year savings of $2,800 in fuel costs alone compared to the 2024 model year gas-powered Pro XD.

Standard Safety Features

The Pro XD series prioritizes safety. The Kinetic is engineered with identical features, ensuring not just compliance with jobsite standards but exceeding them. Furthermore, this commitment to safety underscores the robust design and functionality of the Pro XD Kinetic. Features include orange seatbelts, vehicle decals, and optional lighting accessories. These are incorporated to enhance the vehicle’s visibility and that of the surrounding workers. To ensure auditory awareness, the Pro XD Kinetic is equipped with a standard horn and backup alarm. Additionally, the vehicle’s top speed is customizable within the range of 5-40 mph, with many customers opting for a top speed of 25 mph to align with jobsite compliance regulations. Furthermore, the electric drivetrain of the Pro XD Kinetic contributes to reduced sound levels. This promotes heightened situational awareness for the operator. It also facilitates easier communication among crew members and allows for use in quiet zones.

Accessories Available

The entire Pro XD lineup stands out for its versatility and customizable features through accessories that boost productivity across various climates. Simultaneously, these accessories align with jobsite compliance and safety standards. The extensive catalog of accessories is accessible on the Polaris Commercial website, providing customers with a virtual experience of the vehicles. On the website, customers can explore additional information and tools that enable them to construct and obtain quotes for various all-wheel drive Pro XD models and accessories. The platform also allows users to view each model and accessory in 3D. This provides a comprehensive understanding before requesting a quote.
