Polaris General
This past July, Polaris revolutionized the off-road experience with the introduction of RIDE COMMAND™. Launched on the RZR® XP 1000 EPS Velocity Blue Limited Edition and as an accessory for select RZR vehicles, the system enables riders to connect with other riders and provides centralized, seamless device control, including integration with mobile phones, cameras and audio.
Due to the popularity of RIDE COMMAND, Polaris is extending the technology to its Polaris GENERAL line of vehicles with the introduction of the Polaris GENERAL 1000 EPS RIDE COMMAND Edition Black Pearl. Pairing the unmatched adventure of Polaris GENERAL with RIDE COMMAND will elevate the user’s off-road experience by offering seamless integration of off-road technology, and the ability to chart and share adventures.
