2007 Sportsman 6x6
Polaris Tough Times Six
 Uniquely equipped to take riders and large
loads of gear to off-road destinations a
four-wheel vehicle cannot reach, the Sportsman
6x6 is the choice of sports and recreation,
farm, utility and adventure groups that need to
haul large loads of gear to hard-to-reach
locations.
Sportsman 6x6 owners enjoy true six-wheel drive
due to Polaris’ exclusive On-Demand All-Wheel
Drive (AWD). The system automatically engages
when the rider needs more forward traction. It
reverts to 4WD automatically when AWD is no
longer needed.
To complement the true six-wheel drive and
receive maximum traction from all six wheels,
Polaris designed the Sportsman 6x6’s center and
rear axle suspension with unique and independent
suspensions. The center pair of wheels has a
progressive rate swing arm with 6.0 inches of
travel, while the two rearmost wheels have a
swing arm with a scissor stabilizer and 7.5
inches of travel. The design provides the four
rearmost wheels with exceptional range which
enables the Sportsman 6x6 to retain traction
where other utility vehicles would get hung up.
The MacPherson strut front suspension provides
smooth handling with 6.7 inches of travel. The
Sportsman 6x6 has 5.5 inches of ground
clearance.
 A liquid-cooled Polaris 500 4-stroke,
carbureted, single-cylinder engine powers the
Sportsman 6x6. A Polaris Variable Transmission (PVT)
delivers top performance from the 500 power
plant. The PVT continually senses engine speed
and vehicle torque load and provides the proper
amount of power to the four drive wheels.
To carry gear, the Sportsman 6x6 has a new
super-tough composite front cargo box and
durable, molded rear cargo box. The rear box has
a tailgate that opens wide and a gas-assisted
mechanism that makes it easy to raise the box
and dump loads. Cargo and towing capacities are
designed to suit the heavy loads.
The Sportsman
6X6 delivers:
- 75 lbs. of front cargo box capacity;
- 800 lbs. of cargo box capacity;
- 1,500 lbs. of towing capacity;
- single-lever, all-wheel disc brakes with a
hydraulic auxiliary rear-wheel foot brake.
Sportsman 6x6 instrumentation includes:
- a speedometer/odometer with trip meter and
hour meter;
- high-beam indicator;
- gear indicator for Reverse, Hi, Lo and
Neutral;
- high-temperature and low-battery warning
lights.
The Sportsman 6x6 is available in Sportsman
Green.
