Polaris Ranger 500: The No‑Fluff Utility Side‑by‑Side
Starting at $9,999
You don’t need fireworks or flashy gimmicks, what you need is a reliable workhorse that’s built the right way. Enter the Polaris Ranger 500, the mid‑size utility UTV that’s designed to get the job done without excuses.
Built for Work: Specs That Matter
- Engine & Power: A 500cc single‑cylinder ProStar EFI motor cranking out around 32 hp - modest on paper, but torque‑packed where it counts. EFI means no choke, no fuss, and reliable starts.
- Transmissions to Rely On: Automatic PVT (Polaris Variable Transmission) with Hi/Low range and 2WD/True AWD/VersaTrac Turf Mode so you don’t dig yourself into a hole.
- Hauling: Make fewer trips with the gas-assist dump box. It can haul up to 300 lbs., approximately 10 bags of dry mulch
- Towing: A 1,500-lb. towing capacity with a standard 2" hitch receive easily handles heavy loads, enabling you to efficiently transport heavy landscaping materials or large brush.
- Winch: Clear fallen trees and remove stumps with the pulling power of a factory-installed 2,500 winch.
Dimensions & Durability: Solid and Sensible
- Weight & Clearance: At about 1,065 lb dry with 10 inches of ground clearance, it’s light enough to maneuver yet tough enough to handle heavy work.
- Payload & Bed: A 1,000 lb payload capacity paired with a Lock & Ride cargo box makes loading and dumping simple.
Controls and Comfort
- Instrumentation: Analog speedometer plus a 2″ LCD display showing mileage, gear position, fuel level, engine temp, and service reminders. Everything you need, nothing you don’t.
- Comfort Features: Adjustable tilt steering, roomy seating, and an efficient layout mean long workdays won’t feel like punishment.
Built to Last: Ruggedness You Can Count On
Polaris leaned on decades of know‑how: a heavy-duty frame, weather-sealed components, and a design that thrives in dirt, muck, and mud. It’s a machine you can rely on.
Bottom Line: Trustworthy, Humble, Effective
The Ranger 500 nails the basics:
- Reliable EFI power
- Solid towing and cargo capacity
- Proven drivetrain
- Rugged construction at a fair price
For ranchers, landscapers, property owners, or anyone who needs a dependable go‑to UTV without the fluff.
