2013 Polaris Sportsman XP 850 EFI EPS[edit | edit source]

The 2012 Polaris Sportsman XP 850 EFI EPS sports a beefy engine matched with an upgraded chassis, now offering even more stability. The on-demand AWD system enhances traction whenever needed, so passing over obstacles or areas of difficult terrain, up, or down the hill, is now easier. The Electronic Power Steering reduces fatigue during long rides in hard conditions and helps for a more precise steering.

The high ground clearance and independent rear suspension are coupled to hydraulic disc brakes for better control in tight situations, and strong steel skid plates are standard for better protection. Engine braking, active descent control and seemingly endless upgrade possibilities with the Lock & Ride accessories are all making the Sportsman XP 850 EFI EPS even more convenient.
