2012 Polaris  RZR XP 4 900 SxS / UTV Limited Edition

Beau Baron's 2012 Polaris RZR XP 4 900 SxS Long Term Review
::Continued::

The added horsepower is greatly appreciated everywhere that I drive especially in the dunes and on the race track.  The power steering that comes on the Limited Edition XP is a priceless addition that makes driving the vehicle almost effortless and not only facilitates racing the vehicle but also makes the drive easier for casual cruises as well.

Maxxis Big Horn tires provide great traction in any terrain. After testing it for seven months we are still yet to get a flat tire

The Maxxis Big Horn Tires are very durable and provide great traction in every condition that I have driven the RZR through.  These tires add to the overall stability of the vehicle and make it possible to navigate very rough terrain with ease and confidence with the flat resistance of the Big Horn tires, and I have yet to get a flat tire after months of driving the RZR.

Despite having a longer wheel base & increased weight the RZR XP 4 900 handles very well & the power steering on the limited edition model makes steering effortless

Because of the added length of the vehicle and weight, it obviously decreases the RZR’s top speed and overall maneuverability as compared to my race two-seat XP, but the four-seater still has an impressive top speed of about 70mph and it gets there pretty quick.

The ProStar 900 engine provides fast throttle response as soon as you hit the gas. We were able to get the 2012 Polaris RZR XP 4 900 SxS / UTV up to 70 mph

The most obvious benefit I see to the 4-seater is the extra seats, which means more passengers, which means more fun.  I have people on a weekly basis asking about this thing and how it can be such a big deal and they often doubt its performance.  Now, I can take three people at a time for a ride and clearly show them why this vehicle is a big deal and not just a UTV.  After their ride the most doubtful passengers are the ones saying, “Wow!” and then usually asking me how and where to get one for themselves.

Even with the added weight and additional seating, the 2012 Polaris RZR XP 4 900 SxS / UTV doesn't sacrifice the sport handling known to the RZR SxS lineup
