Polaris RZR With Over 300 HP From A Tesla-Powered Motor? That Sounds Exciting!
by AutoExpert | 4 May, 2022
A major powerplant upgrade has made driving a Polaris RZR even more fun. With a 1.0-liter, two-cylinder motor, this RZR RS1 was sent from the factory with about 100 horsepower. A lot of horsepower for a car this size. This one, on the other hand, is powered by a Tesla electric engine and two Toyota Prius Prime battery packs.
After converting to an electric powertrain, the Polaris has gained over 440 pounds. Nonetheless, the 303 horsepower and 370 lb-ft of torque at the back wheels make up for it.
A YouTuber got the opportunity to test the RZR's capabilities in a parking lot, despite the fact that it is most often associated with dunes. He was astounded, to say the least, by the show it puts on.
No electric Polaris RZR is presently being produced by the manufacturer, although it has experimented with electric ATVs with the compact Ranger EV, which features a 30-horsepower electrically-powered motor.
