2023 BRP Defender Max Limited checks off ost of your boxes... $31k

The Defender Max Limited has a Rotax® 976 cc, V-twin, liquid-cooled engine that pumps out 82 hp at 69 lb-ft.



I was looking at those as well. I was trying to stay Polaris as my nephew is sponsored by them and it will also be supporting him. I plan on wrapping it like his race cars. 

 
There’s another great option coming out that will give you everything, and dune. But there’s no release date and for many they would never want it after all the S#it talking they do! 
Believe me I thought of that as well. Honestly it would be the best option for sure. Problem is the release date. I could only imagine how long it will take before those arrive.

 
I never thought about the general. It is the sealed cab that we are looking at but also the air conditioning. The A/c is a must or a bust!
My dad has a ranger and the ac is not very good- His is a 2020 model- I wouldn't trust it to keep you cool in anything hotter than 85 degrees. Also it is completely gutless compared to an xp1000- the suspension is also nowhere near as good as an xp1000- It does great for hunting and rough rocky roads. Also the bench seat is super uncomfortable- it has no recline and is set to 90 degrees. The enclosure is nice, heater works great, even has power windows and a windshield wiper.

My mom and her boyfriend have the General.  They seam to like it.  He pulled the back seats to put a platform for their dog to ride on.  It's stock other than bolt on stuff like the platform, windshield, lights..

 
I’ve been looking into the general to see if you can install A/c. Also, if they make hard doors with roll down windows. I’ve also ran into a low boost bolt on turbo kit for the Ranger. Many options to look at.

I wonder what it could be.  LOL!

I would not mess around with a bolt on turbo kit.   

Here is a video of a guy testing the a/c unit on a Ranger



 
I wonder if KraftWorks has a Supercharger Kit like they do for the XP1000 - it puts that motor at 160hp.

Bolt On and pretty simple, I like them for the NA KRX, gives it the pep it needs they say.
