Powersports brand Polaris revealed its 2026 off-road vehicle lineup today and celebrated its 40th anniversary of building all-terrain vehicles (ATVs). The company said that the focus for 2026 was to “elevate rider confidence and experience for work and play,” and that means that changes have come to every segment of Polaris’ new lineup, including RANGER, RZR, and Sportsman.
A highlight of Polaris’ 2026 offering is the all-new mid-size RANGER 500 side-by-side. Starting at a MSRP of $9,999, this utility vehicle is intended to usher in some workhorse DNA and reliability but at a price point that opens it up to a wider range of consumers. The RANGER 500 is compact, easy-to-use, and practical for everyday use, making it a versatile option for large properties.
Here’s an overview of the machines coming down the Polaris pipeline for 2026:
2026 Sportsman
Polaris is celebrating 40 years of innovation with the first American Engineered ATVs. The Sportsman 570 Premium 40th Anniversary Edition is a limited time release that “embodies the spirit of adventure and excellence,” the company said.
The edition features premium paint and badging, and exclusive 90s-inspired graphics that pay homage to its rich heritage, offering a unique blend of nostalgia and modern design. The ATV also features a 9.5″ rear suspension travel and 11.5″ of ground clearance to help soak up trail ruts and bumps for a smoother ride, multi-select electronic power steering enabling effortless handling to reduce body fatigue, and on-demand all-wheel drive that detects tire slip in wet or loose conditions, delivering instant traction to keep riders grounded and in control.
Riders can enjoy added warmth with new heated seats available as an accessory option for 2026 Sportsman 1-up 450 and 570 models, in addition to new fender flares available as an accessory for 450, 570 and Touring 570 models.
The 2026 Sportsman 570 EPS and Premium models also come equipped with a 3,500 pound winch factory-installed. Additionally, the 570 EPS model includes new LED highlights adding more visibility to easily see paths in low-light conditions.
The 2026 Sportsman lineup starts at $6,999 U.S. MSRP and will begin shipping to dealers through August and September.
2026 RANGER
This is part of the best-selling side-by-side lineup in the industry, and the 2026 has updated features, colors, and graphics.
For 2026, the RANGER XP 1000 lineup receives an upgrade with new 29” Pro-Armor X-Terrain tires, featuring a new innovative variable tread design that reduces perceived noise for quieter cab experience, as riders power through tasks and trails.
