Polaris Off‑Road has decided that moderation is overrated. Their solution? The 2026 RZR Pro R Ultra Edition — a limited‑run desert missile built for anyone whose idea of a good time involves flying over dunes at questionable speeds. This thing takes championship‑grade racing tech and hands it to the general public, assuming the general public has a credit limit that can handle it. Polaris says this is their most adaptable flagship ever, and honestly, it makes most UTVs look like they belong in a retirement community.

The Big Brain: DYNAMIX DVS Suspension

The star of the show is the new DYNAMIX DVS (Dynamic Vehicle Suspension), developed with the suspension sorcerers at Suspension Direct Inc. This setup introduces the industry’s first electronically controlled hydraulic locking sway bar links — which is a fancy way of saying the machine is constantly deciding whether it wants to behave like a disciplined athlete or a flexible yoga instructor.

The system controls four links and offers three distinct modes, each with its own personality:

Semi‑Active Mode

Locks and unlocks the links up to 200 times per second. Yes, per second. It reacts faster than you can say “uh‑oh,” smoothing out your mistakes before you even realize you made them.

Locked Mode

For when you want that planted, razor‑sharp feel of the standard Pro R. Perfect for high‑speed cornering or pretending you’re filming an action sequence.

Unlocked Mode

Rock crawlers, rejoice. This mode maximizes articulation, letting each tire move independently like four teenagers who refuse to coordinate. The result: you stay on top of the rocks instead of becoming part of them.

A Racing Résumé That Puts Most Humans to Shame

Polaris didn’t just hope this suspension would work — they proved it by dominating the 2025 season. The RZR Factory Racing team went undefeated, snagged back‑to‑back Baja 1000 wins, and took home the SCORE Series Championship. If it can survive Baja, it can definitely survive your weekend warrior antics.

What Makes It “Ultra”

Beyond the suspension that basically thinks for you, Polaris added a handful of exclusive upgrades designed to make sure everyone knows you bought the fancy one:

• MPI™ Racing Steering Wheel: Because sweaty palms deserve premium ergonomics.

• 32-inch BFGoodrich® KM3 Tires: Regular tires would simply tap out.

• Velocity Blue Paint: A limited‑edition color that looks fast even when you’re parked.

• GatorStep® Interior Accents: Because even your floor mats should feel expensive.

Performance: Still Set to Maximum Chaos

The Ultra Edition keeps all the Pro R fundamentals that made the platform legendary:

• 74-inch stance and 104.5-inch wheelbase for physics‑defying stability

• 29 inches of usable travel to flatten whoops that would terrify lesser machines

• 10.4-inch RIDE COMMAND touchscreen, the biggest in the industry

• 1,500-watt Rockford Fosgate® audio, loud enough to drown out your passenger’s panic

• Heated and ventilated seats, because comfort is important even when you’re blasting through a 110-degree desert
