2021 Polaris® 850 Switchback XCR

2021 Polaris® 850 Switchback XCR

Features may include:

• Rider Balanced Control

By placing the rider in the right location on the sled, we've built a sled that corners flat without sacrificing the fun factor of lifting the front end through the bumps or powder. More precise handling both on- and off-trail.

• AXYS Chassis

The AXYS chassis design is the key to delivering rider balanced control through the right rider positioning and centralized vehicle mass. The rider's hand position is moved 4.5" forward, the feet position is 2" forward, the knee position is 4.5" forward, and the seat is 4.5" forward. This means more bite for flatter cornering when in the neutral riding position and a lighter front end for climbing on top of the snow or the moguls when the rider shifts to the back of the sled.

• PRO-XC Rear Suspension with Polaris Race Technology

The PRO-XC progressive-rate rear suspension is optimized for the best performance and control. Through innovative Polaris engineering, the suspension is both lighter and stronger. The front torque arm is rearward to control pitch, increase travel, and improve the rail profile. To increase durability and strength for extreme performance, the Switchback XCR features additional race-inspired components including: Chromoly Rear Pivot, FTS Mount, Solid Jackshaft, Chromoly Front Torque Arm, Reinforced Rail Beams, Solid Bogie Wheels, and IQR Rear Axle Wheels.

• Unrivaled Acceleration

When developing the AXYS platform, our engineers minimized weight throughout the sled without compromising strength. Combined with powerful engines and class-leading power-to-weight ratios, the Switchback XCR gives you the best go-anywhere versatility.

• Lightweight Design

When developing the AXYS platform, our engineers minimized weight throughout the sled without compromising strength or durability.

• Liberty Engine Choices for Every Rider

Built to integrate seamlessly with the lightweight and agile Polaris chassis, Liberty engines feature class-leading power-to-weight ratios and set a new benchmark for ultimate performance with our complete line-up of powerful options.

• Rider-Centric Comfort

With ergonomic controls, integrated storage, enhanced wind protection, and industry-first LED headlights and gauge packages, comfort is woven directly into the AXYS platform's design.

• AXYS Performance Seat

The high-performance seat foam and narrow front design of the AXYS Performance seat delivers greater maneuverability. It's lighter without compromising comfort, offers improved ergonomics and stability, and its gripper top material helps keep the rider in place.

• WER® Shocks

WER® Compression Adjustable Piggyback Needle Shocks with Switchback XCR valving are more tune-able and allow you to adjust compression to suit your riding styles and the day's conditions. They are the most durable in extremely rough terrain at high speeds.

• Polaris MessageCenter Gauge

Keeps a rider aware of sled operating conditions and other important information. Large buttons can be operated with gloved hands and the brightly lit display is easily readable in all light conditions.

• Polaris Interactive Digital Display

This exclusive and industry-leading full color display provides important information and capabilities to the rider such as: sled performance, Bluetooth™, GPS mapping, Clock, and LH Control. This gauge comes as an option on some models and is also available as an accessory.
