These models also come standard with 29-inch tires, providing an extra inch of ground clearance, enhancing comfort, and improving capability over rough terrain. The XP 1000 NorthStar Ultimate models feature new JBL audio for a premium sound experience.
Factory-installed upgrades include a roof for added protection, a Polaris HD 4,500-pound winch with synthetic rope, autostop, and wireless remote for necessary pulling power.
