Polaris is proud to be named the winner of the Future Farming award at the UK’s LAMMA Innovation Awards 2024 with its all-new, all-electric RANGER XP Kinetic UTV. The key contributing factors to this achievement included the XP Kinetic’s up-to-80-mile (130 kilometres) range, electric powertrain engineered through Polaris’ exclusive 10-year partnership with Zero Motorcycles and impressive 567-kilogram cargo box capacity.
Richard Coleby, National Sales Manager at Polaris UK and Ireland said: “Winning this award is something that we are really proud of, the Ranger XP Kinetic is a vehicle that has been highly anticipated by both new and existing customers and to now have the LAMMA Innovation Award is a credit to Polaris’ forward-thinking and innovative approach to product development.”
LAMMA is the UK’s leading agricultural machinery, equipment and services show, encompassing the latest innovations and expertise from all sectors of the industry. Celebrating the latest cutting-edge advancements and showcasing the forward-thinking strides being made in modern farming practices, the LAMMA Innovation Awards are well respected amongst manufacturers, distributors and consumers alike.
“We always look forward to attending the LAMMA show,” continued Richard, “It is consistently an exceptional event and this year we got to debut the Ranger XP Kinetic to the record-breaking UK agricultural audience in attendance, making it all the more special.”
The RANGER XP Kinetic UTV provides unmatched horsepower and torque, pushing the industry forward thanks to its all-electric powertrain which has been engineered for off-road use through Polaris’ 10-year partnership with Zero Motorcycles. Featuring a towing capacity of 1,134kg and boasting an industry-best 680kg payload capacity, the Ranger XP Kinetic delivers uncompromised capability. Thanks to being fully electric, the RANGER XP Kinetic also delivers smooth, precise control when operating at low speeds, especially useful in scenarios like towing or backing up to a trailer.
The Polaris RANGER XP Kinetic is available in a Premium and Ultimate trim. The Premium trim offers a 14.9 kWh Lithium-Ion Battery with an estimated range of up to 45 miles (70 kilometres), whilst the Ultimate trim delivers 29.8 kWh of battery capacity and offers an estimated range of 80 miles (130 kilometres) – ideal for a long day spent hard at work. Both the RANGER XP Kinetic Premium and RANGER XP Kinetic Ultimate are available in dealers now.
