                                    of Polaris' Off-Road Vehicles Division. "With 
                                    the instant success of the RZR XP 900 and 
                                    the popularity of multi-passenger vehicles 
                                    throughout the industry, it was a natural 
                                    progression to develop an extreme-performing 
                                    vehicle that four can enjoy." 
                                  The ultimate combination of power, suspension 
                                    and agility starts with power. At the heart 
                                    of the RZR XP 4 900 is the 88 horsepower ProStar(tm) 
                                    900 Twin EFI engine that was built specifically 
                                    for an extreme-performance side-by-side and 
                                    first found in the RZR XP 900. The engine 
                                    features Dual OverHead Cams (DOHC), four big 
                                    valves per cylinder and dual throttle bodies 
                                    located close to the intake valves for fast 
                                    throttle response and groundbreaking acceleration.

                                  In order to handle the massive power of the 
                                    engine and keep the ride smooth, the RZR XP 
                                    4 900 features a 3-Link Trailing Arm IRS. 
                                    The 3-link design consists of two extra-long 
                                    radius rods and a far forward-connecting trailing 
                                    arm resulting in a strong, yet lightweight 
                                    system. And, for the first time on a Side-by-Side, 
                                    the RZR XP 4 900 will offer Premium, 2.5 in/6.4 
                                    cm body, Walker Evans rear shocks, the largest 
                                    stock shocks on the market. The massive 2.5-inch 
                                    body shocks are designed to deliver higher 
                                    damping forces and avoid shock fade compared 
                                    to a 2-inch body shock thanks to a 35 percent 
                                    larger piston area that reduces internal pressure 
                                    and heat generation. The shock also contains 
                                    35 percent more oil volume to slow the rate 
                                    of heat buildup when pounding through the 
                                    roughest terrain.
