“With a good level of comfort, excellent suspension, and the lightest and easiest steering our tester had come across in a MUV to date, coupled with a decent sized tray, a near-on bullet-proof exterior designed to take the knocks … the Ranger 500 EFI 4x4 is right up there near the top of the mid-range MUV market.”   “All-up I’d have to say Polaris is onto a winner with its new Ranger models if the 500 EFI 4x4 is anything to go by. The day spent climbing up and down the rolling pastures at the Fenemor farm out by Drury was a great way to test the usability, handling and grunt of the latest side-by-side.”   Shane Soloman, Farm Trader NZ, October 2009.
