Additional FeaturesI have added a digital speedometer/odometer for logging
purpose.
I have also ordered the quick-charge kit. It should come to
a full charge in 4 hours or less (one additionnal charger)
for 619$.
Polaris Industries also offers the Polaris EV LSV (based
on the Ranger EV) for government and military business. I
think that tells a lot about their ruggedness

I love this machine... so quiet !!!!

GREAT machine !!
