Polaris just introduced an all new RZR side by side that blew our mind when we read the press release. We didn't think this off-road trail machine could get any more awesome with 78-horsepower in stock form but we were wrong. This new newly announced 2016 RZR Turbo EPS has a saliva inducing 144-horsepower.

The main highlight of this new model is the all new ProStar Turbo engine. It was developed for performance applications and features forged pistons, an upgraded firing order, forged crankshaft, high strength connecting rods, sodium filled exhaust valves, and a new oil lubrication system. To control all of the heat generated by a turbocharged engine, an all new cooling system also comes to RZR Turbo. A new engine management system is updated to include knock detection, boost control, and a high-flow return style fuel pump.

 

Of course, with a more powerful engine, Polaris has also updated the drivetrain. An all new PVT system features new clutches and belt. Reverse is now geared and internal shafts have been upgraded. A dedicated high performance all wheel drive system helps drive connect the engine to the ground.

The RZR Turbo EPS also features bigger coil-over springs and FOX Podium Internal Bypass Shocks. A longer wheelbase and a 3-link trailing arm suspension is geared for big jumps and rolling whoops. The side by side comes equipped with Maxxis Bighorn tires.

 

An all new seat angle for all RZR models positions the driver closer to the steering wheel. A 660-watt charging system offers enough power for any accessory you can think up, including over 145 official Polaris Accessories.

 

The 2016 Polaris RZR Turbo EPS will come in Graphite Crystal, Spectra Orange, and Velocity Blue. Expect the first units to arrive at dealerships in August.
