Polaris recently introduced their 2017 lineup to the off road press, and they did so in style. Held at the Bull Run Guest Ranch near Great Falls, Montana, the reveal of the new vehicles was nearly overshadowed by the beautiful surroundings.

As is their custom, Polaris is offering a specialized version of their RZR XP 1000 EPS Gold Matte Metallic for the rock racing/crawling crowd. Decked out in a gold, black and white look, what we’re calling their “Rock Crawler” edition features things that make the RZR better at slow speed up and over.

The main differences are that the RC comes with a lower gear ratio and modified ignition mapping that improves torque, along with Pro Armor Crawler XG tires. Clearance is improved thanks to the high-clearance A-arms, while skid plates and rock sliders along the lower edges keep damage to a minimum. And for when there’s trouble, a winch is standard.
