Polaris Slingshot gets a host of improvements at the Los Angeles Auto Show

Polaris Slingshot gets a host of improvements at the Los Angeles Auto Show

The Polaris Slingshot is one of the most recognized Polaris models in existence. A three-wheeled motorcycle, it has the ability to turn heads like no exotic car can’t. And with plenty of power in a light package, the Polaris Slingshot will also give you the performance of an exotic car. The Slingshot unveiled at the Los Angeles Auto Show last November shows off some of the changes made to the lineup.

First off, the new Grand Touring variant joins the 2019 lineup. It comes with quilted seats, a colour-matched Slingshade (which is basically a top for your Slingshot), a tall wind deflector and a Ride Command infotainment system with navigation.

This system got an upgrade this year and can now be paired with Polaris’s new Route Planning and Companion App, which lets Slingshot drivers plan routes, as well as watch data – like mileage, battery, mileage and gas level in the tank – on their phones. This app can communicate with the infotainment system via Bluetooth.

Polaris also unveiled a Slingshot SLR customized in collaboration with audio equipment manufacturer Rockford Fosgate.

This Slingshot SLR is outfitted with a total of 28 speakers, and 4 subwoofers and can deliver about 3000 watts of output. Each Slingshot model is powered by a GM Ecotec 2.4L DOHC four-cylinder engine that delivers 173 horsepower through a five-speed manual gearbox. Variants available are S, SL, SLR and the new Grand Touring.
