As part of their sponsorship of Best in the Desert’s MINT 400 on March 10-13, Polaris RZR will be giving away two RZR XP Turbo vehicles (one for the driver and one for co-driver) to the team that finishes first overall in the race.
Polaris RZR is the gold standard in recreational vehicles due to the family’s ultimate combination of power, suspension, agility, comfort and customization. Owning a RZR is not only about the desert, dunes and trails one can conquer but the lifestyle that goes along with that experience. Polaris continues to innovate the RZR family to enhance that experience by consistently taking off-roading to a new level.
Unlike other turbo offerings on the market and true to RZR’s heritage of building complete machines that set the vehicles apart from the competition, the new RZR XP Turbo EPS is completely engineered, front to back, to translate industry-leading power into unmatched performance. To deliver maximum durability and performance, Polaris has performed substantial testing on the engine with enough test miles to travel around the world more than nine times; and paired the engine with an all-new stronger driveline to ensure all the power gets to the ground reliably. The vehicle brings significant innovations to each of the hallmark Power, Suspension, Agility, Comfort and Customization aspects of RZR to provide the ultimate off-road experience.
The Polaris RZR XP Turbo set a new benchmark for high-performance side-by-sides, delivering unmatched power, speed, and agility. Equipped with a 144-horsepower turbocharged engine – the most powerful in its class at the time – the RZR XP Turbo redefined off-road excitement. Its advanced suspension, featuring FOX Podium shocks, provided exceptional handling and comfort over the roughest terrain, while Polaris’s proven AWD system ensured superior traction and control. Built for adrenaline-fueled adventures, the RZR XP Turbo became the go-to choice for riders seeking next-level performance and the ability to conquer the most demanding trails and dunes.
The Mint 400 is one of the most iconic and grueling off-road races in the world, held annually in the deserts of Las Vegas, Nevada. Known as “The Great American Off-Road Race,” the event draws top-tier racers, off-road enthusiasts, and adrenaline junkies from across the globe. The Mint 400’s challenging course, stretching over punishing desert terrain, tests the limits of both drivers and machines, making it a true proving ground for off-road endurance. With a rich history dating back to 1968, the race has grown into a legendary spectacle featuring UTVs, trucks, buggies, and motorcycles, accompanied by a week of festivities, vendor showcases, and fan experiences.
