SPORTSMAN 500 H.O. BEST-SELLING AUTOMATIC 4X4 ATV*

With its legendary smooth Sportsman ride and long list of distinctive Polaris features, the Sportsman 500 H.O. is a great value. No wonder it's still the best-selling automatic 4x4 ATV of all time.

ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD)

True AWD keeps you moving, automatically engaging all four wheels when you need more forward traction and reverting back to 2WD when you don't. Other ATVs use a limited-slip differential, engaging only three wheels.

AGGRESSIVE DESIGN WITH LOCK & RIDE

A new, more aggressive body style gives the Sportsman an intimidating look and clear sight lines for the driver. Integrated front storage and Lock & Ride compatible rear rack make it easy to carry gear.

INTEGRATED FRONT STORAGE

The most integrated storage of any ATV. The 6.5 gallon capacity lets you stow-away loads of gear and still have access to it, even with items tied to the deck.

RAISED RADIATOR PLACEMENT

Radiator is mounted 3" higher in the chassis an angled rearward to keep it out of mud and you on the trail longer.

BIG TOWING POWER

The Sportsman lives up to its Hard Working reputation with a 1,225 lb. towing capacity, so you can tow trailers loaded with material and equipment.

HIGH GROUND CLEARANCE

A full 11.25" of obstacle-clearing ground clearance lets you tackle some of the tougher terrain that comes your way.

LEGENDARY SMOOTH INDEPENDENT REAR SUSPENSION (IRS)

The Sportsman was the world's first ATV with IRS, a feature that made it as popular as it is today. Its rock-solid design has 9.5" of travel to minimize body roll and keep the ride smooth.
