Break away from what you think an off-road vehicle can be — this is the all-new, revolutionary Sportsman ACE™, and it’s only from Polaris ®. What is a Sportsman ACE™? §§ A recreation-oriented, sit-in off-road vehicle that puts its driver in the center of adventure like never before from Polaris®. §§ A fun and confidence-inspiring trail machine with a revolutionary new centered driving position. §§ A trail-capable and compliant 48” width makes it the perfect partner through the woods. §§ A built for fun Hardest Working, Smoothest Riding machine worth taking a demo ride in. The towing, the hauling, the all-day trail fun, it’s all there and more.
What it isn’t §§ It isn’t a two-person vehicle. There’s one seat for one person that’s completely in control of the vehicle at all times. §§ Despite its recreation-oriented features and sporty looks, the Sportsman ACE™ is NOT a Side-x-Side. §§ This is not a dunes & desert machine. Rather, it comes alive on the trail, where its nimble agility and ProStar® engine handle any situation with confidence. §§ While the Sportsman ACE™ can carry a combined 360 lbs. of gear on racks and in storage, larger loads can present challenges.
consumer The Sportsman ACE ™ is an all-new kind of machine from Polaris.® Consumers have not seen a machine quite like this before, but its appearance will feel familiar. That’s because it has the DNA of a Sportsman®® with a new fun-to-drive element factored in — all in a fun and comfortable package.
Who this machine is perfect for §§ Riders looking to buy their first vehicle. §§ Parents of would-be riders and women are key targets. §§ Growing families with children 16 or older ready to get into riding. §§ Husband/wife looking for a fun and confidence-inspiring second vehicle for their significant other. §§ Older/experienced riders looking for an easy-in, easy-out and simple to operate machine.

ROPS CAB FRAME The unique single passenger cab design includes a ROPS structure previously found only on larger Side-x-Side vehicles.
Trail Compliant 48-inch Width Unlike traditional Side-x-Side designs, the SPORTSMAN ACE™ is just 48” wide, allowing it to navigate narrow trails and deliver a level of nimble footed agility unlike any other sit-in off-road vehicle.

cab Netting With a simple click, the side netting of the SPORTSMAN ACE™ can be secured or detached in just seconds.
centralized cockpit seating position The revolutionary design of the all-new SPORTSMAN ACE™ combines the nimble handling of an ATV and the comfort and control of a Side-x-Side in a rider-centric design. The compact, comfortable and centralized seating position connects you directly with the machine for the ultimate trail riding experience.
Trail-Dominating Ground Clearance With up to 10.25” of ground clearance, the SPORTSMAN ACE™ lets you focus on the trail, clearing rocks, logs and stumps instead of having to maneuver around them.
High-Capacity front storage rack
Smooth Reliable Power
Polaris® off-road vehicles have built an unprecedented reputation for work, and the storage capability of the all-new SPORTSMAN ACE™ is no different. A total rack capacity of 360 lbs., 120 lbs. on the front rack alone, proves it.
The powerful 32hp* ProStar® engine features an internal counter-balance shaft for smooth, vibration free power; while dual overhead cams and electronic fuel injection precisely deliver the fuel charge for impressive power, and instant, predictable throttle response. * Peak HP - Actual HP will vary.
